Since the last month or so I've had this weird vibration noise coming from behind the dash, somewhere around the glovebox and centre vent area....

It happens when braking due to vibrations until you come to a stop, and also does it now when driving, I've noticed if I'm on a smooth bit of freeway doing more then 90km/h or so it goes away

It sounds like maybe abit of plastic is slightly rubbing against something and the movement of the car is enough to make it vibrate

Any ideas what it could be or how to find the issue?

Very annoying !

GF's earings in the ashtray :whistling:

been in the glove box lately and slammed it shut??

done any work in that area lately - last few months

usb cable from the ECU ?

have to try stick your head under and grab and shake a few things gently and go through elimination

nothing I can say oh yes that happened to me and it's .....

doesn't sound like leaf litter etc..

(ps. I'll go grab some photo's of the GT'R's steering wheel today - still in shop :( )

edit: just a thought - you haven't got any crusty plastic dried out from age fall off. like front dimsiter vent clips

aftermarket radio chasis or screws..

I emptied my glove box still does it, doesn't sound like leaf litter or anything more of a metal on metal vibration sound

Haven't touched anything in that area either but I might remove my glovebox and see what I can see up there and if I move a bunch of cables and see how it goes

I don't want to remove my dash just to find te problem but if it continues I have no other choice !

Re steering wheel, thanks mate !

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
