Hey Guys,

Started getting weird problems with my v35. Turned the car on today and it would automatically go into the auto aircon mode.

Pressing any button will not respond, aircon and stock headunit. Anyone seen this happen before?

The other day the stock bose headunit was playing up where it would turn itself off and on again, then the aircon thing would happen. But it would eventually turn off again and go back to normal.

I haven't done anything to the car and it is complete stock so not sure if this is a "common" issue or not. At the moment ive disconnected the car battery to see if it somehow "resets" this issue.

Could it be a fuse problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Yeah, reading teh g35driver forums. It seems to be quite a common issue. Only fix is to replace the unit or go with one of those aftermarket or oem doubledin kits. Smacking it was also a temporary fix.

I seem to have to smack it everytime i start the car now to get it to go normal.

You'd be surprise how often hitting things fix them. Alternator not charging? Give her a little tap with a hammer. Starter not cranking? Give her a decent crack with a hammer. Temporary fixes only though.

Yeah, im currently looking for the OEM JDM double din kit. Seems there is a shortage of these at the moment, no-one seems to have any in stock with no ETA on new shipments.

I want to avoid buying the aftermarket metra kits.

^^ good to know.. the prices in USA have been skyrocketing for the S2 double din and some said they have had them on backorder for months with no ETA. Good to you know can get them if I decide to go down this path.

Hey Guys,

Thought id update this in case anyone else was after the double din kit. I was able to source one from Sewell Infiniti:

Seems they only have the kit for 03-04 cars.

Cheers,

    • I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.
    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
