Hi guys I have spent 3 hours researching this but can't find it. My car is at tuner after full engine , gearbox and turbo change as well as ecu, anyway hicas light is on which I wasn't too worried about but now when ignition is on there is an audible pulsing sound coming from the engine bay and its affecting my flex fuel sensor. I really didn't want to go down lock bar route due to defecting etc, could the adaptronic ecu be causing this, have I plugged wrong connection in on the solonoid as in mixed them up? Or could it be bleeding issue? With each pulse the light flickers and as I said it can be clearly heard. The power steer pump was off completely during engine removal btw.

Thanks guys

i have lock out bar on mine, though now i have the problem of the hicas light flashing with the noise, and it also moves the steeering left to right a little bit by itself... is there somewhere else i have to unplug,remove fuse or something. was fitted by a mechanic though maybe forgot to discoonect something

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
