Guys - Major break through. Went back to my car dealer as Nissan was hesitant in diagnosing the car. They have very little knowledge about cars in my opinion. If the service manual doesn't state it, t

BIG DRAMA

Car was booked in at NISSAN by cardealer where i bought car from,When i got there at NISSAN dealership the guy who is working on my car said he is keep sending request to Nissan to get software update but frm japan they are not releasing.Now he said to wait till monday to hear from them they have requestd again.Otherwise they have got the part no which is brand new ICU,they wll have to buy.Cz cleaning throttle body has caused trouble to car which is wen dey start the car its playing up with RPM,it keeps playing between 1100-1900 range its not stable

any advise what to do ???

I have asked for a refund for my car but manager says plz give us time to sort this out.

Cleaning the throttle is something most Nissan mechs know not to do.

There are plenty of throttle relearn procedures they can do in the consult 3 diagnostic program, but I think they need to be done in a certain order.

hey scotty car was at dealer's mechanic first he tried to solve that problem so he did cleaning,when it got out of his hands he gave up and reffred to Nissan and he has made that problem even worse before i could drive my car,Now i can't even drive.Sick of this LOAN car they hve given me ,Hopefully something will workout my way coming week

I had issues when I did a TB clean. My rpm fluctuated fro 1.5-2.5k rpm non stop...I went as far as getting new TBs but still same issue. Not too sure what the issue was there. Nissan couldn't figure it out. They did ECU reset, reflash, throttle relearn and whatever other relearn/reflash/reset possible. Nothing worked. I ended up taking one of my mates TB, same part number everything but that worked on my car...so we just swapped.

That is my next step if I can't get the file. Buying a new one already updated.

I think dats what they will have to do as well for my car,cz if u cudnt get update from Infiniti Australia.There is no way they can get here as well.They might endup buyin another ECU used one or may be brand new.Looking forward to get my car back its been two weeks now.hopefully good news gona come towards coming monday fingers crossed ....

I tried finding a second hand one, but could not get confirmation from anyone if they were updated or not.
Not sure of the price of a new ECU (wouldn't be cheap) compared to a second hand one (see them on ebay around the $300-$500 mark sometimes)

Hello All

Just an update on this dealer bought second hand ECU to fix my car which arrived last weekend.Nissan was hoping by replacing it problem will go away.But today i got an update throttle body and ecu codes doesn't match.So they need two brand new throttle bodies and brand new ecu.

Anyone knows will this work or not ????

And the idle relearn procedures aren't working? There are 3 processes that need to be followed in order to get the idle to relearn. If it doesn't find 650rpm + or - 100revs it won't set, in which case you most probably have a vacuum leak.

If the process works, and the idle drops, but then goes back to a high idle after you restart the engine next, you probably have an engine fault code logged in the ecu.

The rough idle, what makes it rough? Does it sound like it has lumpy cams? Is it missfiring?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.

      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
