Hey guys,

I wasnt sure where to ask this so i thought i would post it up here and see if anyone knew what was going on.

Lately when i start my car somtimes the traction control light, slip light and engine light will all light up and the car wont be running right. it sounds more rumbly at idle and reving and just doesnt feel right, i turn the car back off and start it up again and it will be fine? Not really sure whats going on. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for any help.

get nissan consult or one of the clones and check for error codes from the stock ECU

all of the systems rely on the TPS working and it may be intermittently going out of range

when it does, a number of systems can fail, like the ones you mentioned

i get this on my 33 sometimes, fix is to turn off car, pump accel pedal a few times (open/close throttle body) and restart and its fine

its likely the TPS sensor may be dirty, loose or starting to fail. check consult for real time diag

Lol I was bout to go n post the very same thing. I was thinking that it was either faulty dash or coilpacks. I thought it was the dash cos when all three light up I find that when i try turning traction on/off the lights all stay on. I also stopped past my mechanic who plugged into my computer n found nothing wrong.

I do find this problem occurs randomly, but used to occur more when low on fuel. However my car has never run rough or anything.

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
