hmm... the coils seemed to be fine when i checked them, i did the coil test by disconnecting one and seeing if the engine kept firing or not. i guess ill have a closer look. i wouldn't expect water could get down that far, but one of my coils was wet. ill have another go at them i suppose. i replaced the plugs, so they're fine

Heh, aren't i red faced, my AFM was clogged with my air filter. its completely buggered, falling to pieces etc. thanks a lot for all your help though guys, at least i know what to look for next time.

ok going by my experience, a few cars i did had symptoms you had ,

FAULTY AFM.

FAULTY TURBO (Bearings or bushes and shaft wear )

FAULTY plugs

FAULTY coils

FAULTY governor valve on side of planum

FAULTY fuel reg and or pump maby filter test with fuel meter

FAULTY crank angle sensor and or knock sensor

LEAKING BOV, pipes , intercooler.

clean out all harneses that may have came in contact with water especially crank angle sensor and knock sensor ...

proccess of elimination mate start from least expensive too expensive .

D'oh - oh well, it's good you got it sorted out.

Hay if you've got a stock airbox and need a stock filter element, I've got one you can have for nothing.

I've actually got an HKS Pod, it came with the car, but the filter is stuffed now.

I'm actually thinking about getting a stock airbox reinstalled and a high flow filter, is there any difference between this and a Pod? i don't want to lose power, but the Pod is so bloody noisey

Well, when I got my car it had a HKS pod filter too !!

I went from the HKS pod that was in a cold air box, to a stock airbox with a high flow panel filter.

The only difference I found was that it was 10 million times quiter...... I noticed no difference in power at all.

With the highflow panel filter I can still hear a little bit of induction noise, and I can hear the turbo spool up now (really high pitched whine, that goes so high it goes out of range of your hearing :D ) but it's 100% better than the HKS pod.

Little bit of induction noise..... That's not a HKS pod filter. They are one of the loudest pods around.

I actually found it pretty anoying. Taking off normally it'd sound like your were going flat out.

Much nicer to drive with the stock box with a high flow panel filter.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
