Hello, first time forum poster.

I have a R34 25GT Neo.
It's tiptronic.

A few days ago my car wouldn't shift out of third. It would just continue running in it and sound like a dying cow. the A/T light is on and flashes about 13 times. This happened for the last 3 days. Even if i switched it to tip and drove, it would still stick to 3rd.

But today I turned it on went to gym, I got back in it in an a hour or so and started driving again. The car drove in all the gears, fine. Then the A/T light came one and it just drove on 3rd. It's weird because everytime i shut it of and then on and drive it works fine on all gears for a little while and then goes and sticks to 3rd .

I switched it to tip and drove, it would work fine.. but after a while just go back to third. and I'd have restart to get it to run on all gears again.

I was able to thrash it as well, and it shifted smoothly..

some advice would be nice because i dont think it is a mechanical problem.

can someone also let me know what type of transmission fluid to get.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
