I have a 350 GT Nissan skyline 2003 import it is running is safe mode, I have had it to one mechanic and his computer told me it was a stepper motor fault can't find one anywhere. took it to a transmission place he had it for a week and gave up stating it stuck in third, it's a lovely car and i would love to put it back on the road but can't get it to drive any ideas

Replacement of the stepper motor in the CVT  will cost a few bucks. Probably only a Nissan dealer will have the scanner that will pinpoint the problem so pay the money for a scan. Then try to find a better auto transmission repair shop for a quote on the repair.

My local shop could do it but its in Auckland NZ.

Here's a motor if you want to have a go yourself( look around on ebay ...some of the ads have the gearbox no so see if you can find the number of your transmission. Obviously they all come freight free from China or you could order through Nissan for much more money (or get a second hand tranny - but a second hand CVT???!!!) :

or:

or you should be able to order it though Nissan for megabucks.

Are you sure that the stepper motor in question is part of the CVT? There are at least 2 other options. Idle control and throttle or traction control.

It could be the tranny's stepper, but if it is, it will be inside it. So....you won't find it without some spanners.

Had it on to computers now only one could connect and it said the stepper motor. I don't know what else to to do the Transmission place in Underwood is I'm told one of the best and he gave up I just thought someone must have had the same thing happen to them so I turned to this forum.  I have had the stepper motor out it's easy in this car but it's back in there so I could move the car.

Fair enough .

Have you had a read of this?

https://gearsmagazine.com/magazine/stop-wasting-money-on-jatco-cvt-stepper-motors/

I assume since you have had the stepper motor out you have changed the (special) cvt fluid and filter.

If you have the energy you could follow this article. test the stepper motor and clean the valve body.

Have you got a price from Nissan for the stepper motor should it be required?

I did speak to Nissan at Northlakes but they didn't have any answers for me they said they had no information on this car it's an import so I started looking around for my self I keep getting told to give up and scrap it but I'd like to see it on road.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
