Hello,

Taking the v35 to a mechanic next week, but would like to know if anyone has had a similar problem and would like to know how much im looking at to fix.

Out of know where the VDC, SLIP and Immobilizer light all came on, power is reduced, (seems like it is in limp mode, revs will not go over 3an a half) and it is very irritating.

I have tried disconnecting the battery, checked brake pads and all fluids, was not doing any irrational driving so i cannot understand why its happening.

After the car is turned off for at least 20 mins, and switched back on the only light that is always on is the immobilizer which is stock, then with out fail they all go back within about 10 mins, and no power again. The car will then hesitate to start whilst those lights are on.

Anyone at all had something similar happen?

Appreciate the replies. :unsure:

was driving home yesterday and the oil pressure light came on at idle and car stalled.. maybe that could be why its going into limp mode/slip light coming on. Major service was only done in november with the oil and filter changes, so i hope its not the oil pump and just a sensor, not hearing any unusual sounds either.

yeh oil level is fine, im in canberra, just really wanna make sure it will be ok to drive to the mechanic on wednesday, the light only came on once like a said they car stalled, i started it back up and made it home without it coming on again which is a 30 min drive, 40 mins to mechanic though

Happened to my 350 coupe once before I bought it (mate's car). Sounds like exactly the same problem you encountered i.e. VDC/SLIP on, car in limp mode... Changed a cam sensor and things are all good but that's just for me. Take it to a good mechanic and put on Consult III definitely.

Yep.. mine did exactly the same thing, but was caused by a bad connection on my after-market cruise control, which threw a 'accelerator pedal sensor' fault. So certainly needs codes read to know the cause.

no worries thanks for the input guys, yeh hope thats all it is, the mechanic specializes in skylines so i hope he will do. Excuse my ignorance but what is a Consult 3?

The only light that remains on the whole time is the immobilizer.. so did it stall and oil pressure light come on for any of you when SLIP light was on?

Consult is Nissan's diagnostic system, consult3 is the most recent revision, this is what Nissan plugs into your car to diagnose issues.

There are several consult3 clones you can buy to do the same job.

Even some basic diag tools can do simple tasks like read error codes. I used Nissan datascan to check the code when I had these symptoms.

    • 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         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
