Cefiro Problems

[Ceffo]

Hey guys Ive noticed a few posts about common problems with A31 cefiros.

Maybe a list of problems that ouccur after importing could be posted here and remedies.

- One thing i have noticed is the power steering from majority of these models are pretty muched fcuked. Mines is leaking from the piping. $250 to fix for a new system not inc. labor.

Annoying things

P: The darn doors keep locking when u start up your car and start driving.

Dont know about u guys but i find this a problem esp when u have to constanly press the open button when u pick up other peeps

A: I have recently remedied this by reseting the ecu. It seems the doors do not lock up anymore. The ECU is the same as an R32 skyline.

P: And as in most nissans u got that blasted ding ding niose when the car hits 100km/h on a freeway and it gets very annoying

A: Any suggestions would be nice.

My car has had the steering pump replaced in J - the yard I bought it from actually told me and sent me photos

You will need to remove that 108KMPH warning bell from behind the dash - or unplug it etc

When my cef got here it had a leak in the power steering, it was only a bit of hydrolic hose that had split just of the pump, we had to pull the whole line out, i rang enzed and they came around and fixed the hose for $110, if you dont want to f*ck around for a couple of hours fitting it and taking it out i dont recomend doing it your self but it wasnt that expensive to fix

The other option for the power streeing hose is to take the car to enzed and they will replace the hose and place an "olive" connection in the line for about 150. well worth the dollars considering the effort to remove the entire pipe.

I've registered 5 ceffys 4 of which have had rear right hand door problems and each of teh 4 had a differnt problem

window switch

window mechanism relay

widow winder over wind collapse

and one arrived with a bit of pipe holding the window up

had 2 with leaking power steering which was one long term rotting teh rubber bushes and engine mount below it

1 broken speedo cable

just comes down to age and most have done hi kms even if the speedo says otherwise so you have to expect a few bits an pieces to be sorted
