help!!! gtr attessa problems guru needed

[tribex]

ok ,

well today i tried the fuse thing suggested by LAL and no problems yet however fingers crossed cause sometimes its fine for a few days and then starts coming on again,

Meshmash your an IDIOT mate dont yu know anything, SHITE man, only kidding bro your suggestion makes good sense to me but the tyres and wheels are pretty good i think, 17 inch volks with good tyres so i dont think thats it, but certainly keep it in mind...

Demon : No the car does not ever appear to be in 2 wd mode despite the warning lights, so thats why i am thinking electrical fault but, have thought of bleeding the system, but i think if it was a case of fluid issues the car would in 2wd mode and spinning tyres like a bitch.. i'll keep this in mind though bro..

Amuru: sorry mate, i'm not sure i'm fast learning about ATTESSA myself, the r33 tends to send a lot of torque to the front anyway even when driving normally, i think the r32 tends to be more rear bias normally, if anything i would expect you to loose front drive if their were problems with maybe low fluid or something but gaing more front drive, sorry mate i'm buggered if i know but i'll keep an ear out for solutions......

Hoetrain : thanx for the input, how the f do i check a faulty g sensor??? lol

anyways hopefully LAL's idea has worked, i'll let you know fellas, cheers.

Hehehe, you can actually measure the voltage across the terminals.

(add a variable resistor and you have yourself a poor mans torque split controller), anyway, good luck with your ATTESSA.

Sorry to temporarily hi jack your thread!

Lal

The problem you described early in this thread with the 4WD light coming on after goin for a drive then once I turn the car off and back on the light seems to go away, mine seems to be doin this, what do you think the problem is? The car has never been in a smash, I made sure by taking it to many different mechanics just to check thoroughly.

Any ideas?

Thanks

tribex,

Yeah the fluids fine, I topped it up recently as the mechanic hadnt put enough fluid in. If I hadve remembered you were having problems with yours, I wouldve had a look at it last night.

I know most of the common causes of attessa failures (on r32 at least) but Im a bit stumped as to why its always putting torque to the front now even on light throttle (all wheels are 17x9 with 255/40/17's)

Amaru;

Might sound like a numpty solution but have you thought about getting the thing CONSULT checked? Mine has done the same thing twice - torque gauge flickered just on cruise and then behaved normally. It hasn't happened often enough to bother me yet so I haven't pursued it.

Ronin6: you got the same problem as us bro by the sounds of things, i tried LAL's idea of removing the fuses and puttin them in again so far so good but wont really know if its worked for a few days as its irregular, i'll let you know though....by the way are you running an aftermarket ecu??????

almuru, you know yours might me a faulty g sensor, that kinda makes sense if its giving false reading and adjusting accordingly, i really dont know man thats weird but.....good luck dude....

Consult plugs into the standard ecu doesnt it? If so, I have a power fc....

get on the internet to find out...i found out how to get the hicas to flash problem codes from the net...i'm sure melb has some good GTR mechanics out there like the guy who used to tune the GTRs that ran in Bathurst...but he's pricey.

geoff...yea i always find i have to correct and re-correct the car on a hard exit so i think a hicas lock would be good

the ecu doesnt really have anything to do with it as there is other module units in the car that control the vehicles drive system......By taking the fuse out you have cleared out the Drive system module codes that would have been stored due to some sort of malfunction that has occured in the system at one stage...once its recognised an error it will flash the light and hold the code in memory...once the battery or fuse is pulled out it resets it....So 1st stage of finding the problem is to clear out the code....and see if it comes back....but you obviously already know that

[ronin6]

Thanks for the tip guys, I'll try that and see how it goes, the problem has been there since I bought the car, although it can be a good problem at times

[tribex]

ok LAL well i thought you might have been my savior but nope , fraid your trick hasn't fixed it, removed the fuses like you said and today got the lights back again!!!! errrr this is givin me the shites,

any other ideas anyone

??????

Ronin plesae let me know if you have any luck...
