My r32 gtr headlights are on they flicker every few seconds all the time even when idling when i hear a click from a relay in the boot on the passenger side at the back.

so i disconnected the relay and the 4wd warning light comes on so i figured out its the 4wd pressure unit relay.

Is it normal for the pump to run for a second every few seconds

does any one know if there is a check valve to hold the pressure

no oil drips from the car so its not leaking externally

any help on this appreciated.

mine does that every 25 or so seconds.  I think it keeps the acumulator for the attessa unit at 200psi or so (primed to go when it actuates the transfer case clutches).

thanks Sean

im gonna try bleeding it to see if that helps 25 seconds seems more reasonable to me if i can get it to run every 25 ill be happy.

I think i located the bleeding connector in the console ( plug with black/yellow wire?) but it is not running the pump when unplugged . my manual says right side of passenger dashboard, this one is in the centre console near the stereo.

Any one used the bleeding connector?

hey i think it is down in the driver side footwell (by the accelerator from memory). It is easy as. MY old gts4 used to prime when the car started which was easy to hear, couldnt hear it any other time. maybe yours has air in the line, if so this should fix it. make sure you have the resoivoir topped up well as it pumps thru quite fast and empties it out quick!

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
