My understanding is that the atessa sends 5% drive to the front wheels as a minimum at at all times.

Regarding fluids when my car was auto I bought 20L of quality synthetic atf and used it in the auto, the atessa and the power steering.

Well just as abit of of an update with my car, took it to a GTR doctor xD, got all the fluids in the car changed, $600+ of fluids! Both diffs, transfer case, gearbox, ATTESA actuator.. everything done except a coolant flush which is getting done next time i'm there.

My mechanic belives that it is most likely a G sensor. However upon driving he believes that there is something abit wrong with the speedo.. When accelerating it stays on 0kph then quickly rises to say 40kph, the delay is minimal however he belives that this could also cause my issue. As the ATTESA takes inputs from the G sensors, speedo etc right? So if there is a delay, the ATTESSA might be tricked into believeing there is wheelspin.

Any chance of this being the cause? I plan to get it looked at again in the near future!

Looking at the R32 RB26DETT System Figure, the ECCS unit gets its' vehicle speed signal from the speedo which gets it from the gearbox.

I can't find a diagram for the R32 ABS/ETS unit but I would imagine that the system is only looking at differential readings from the ABS sensors.. will have a look when I get home.

Yeah it looks like the ECU gets the vehicle speed from the speedo (for speed limiter etc) but it also looks like the ECU only supplies the ETS (attessa) with throttle signal and engine RPM, I guess the ABS sensors would be providing the speed for the ETS computer. If you end up needing another speedo with speed sensor let me know, i've a spare.

Roger that doo doo!

Is it possible to repair the speedo without changing the cluster.. as i believe my car has genuine k's and would like to keep the "standard" ODO on there if possible.

If it is something as simple as this to fix my problem that would be a massive relief!

I had pulsing issue where if the car was cruising around 100km, I could feel the car surging forward slightly every 5 secs or so constantly

at the time if didnt put 2 n 2 together as I was only fixing the flicking needle but it also sorted out the surge as well

Hm my issue occurs at 100kph as well, not sure if mine "surges" .. the torque just goes foward after a certain amount of time.

I will have to get this fixed asap and see if it solves my problem:D

The 'speed warning' unit which looks like a fuse is interchangeable between speedos so you can keep your original cluster. Still don't know if it supplies speed info for ECU or if it's just a limiter warning or power steering/hicas input. If it's jiggered it might be doing something funny to your attessa at 100kph, but check the speedo cable first. After the G sensor of course

are you 100% sure the tyres are all the same???

do a liltle test, put the tyres on the front on the back and back on the front, than go for a drive and see if it is the same.... if it dose than its a prob with the 4wd system, theres a test you can also do its in the workshop manaul mite be worth alook

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
