has anyone ever heard the noise that would be made from a car that is driving with virtually no automatic transmission oil? Is it a really loud churning noise?cheers

 

No oil = no running. Needs gearbox oil to go.

what if your driving and you have a hole in the box and its leaking and leaking, im sure itll run for a bit, i want to know for that minute or however long it will run what noise it will make. If anyone has had first hand experience with this let me know

I know that you'd be an idiot to drive with a smashed and leaking box and that it will be slipping etc etc, my question is simple, if anyone has heard that noise and can describe it to me could you please do so

cheers

No. I've tried to drive a car with little to no transmission fluid. It didn't make any funny noises or smoke, it just didn't move until I put enough in it.

If your transmission is making noise then there is definitely something wrong.

Low to no trans fluid -

It will make a grindy noise, it will feel like a slipping clutch, it will stop, it will not start if it is empty or too low. It will not change through gears.

It will NOT blow smoke.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
