My Auto Tranny & Dash Went Crazy Tonight!
jaik replied to jaik's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Raining again tonight and after an hours drive in the rain my girlfriend steps out of the car with one wet shoe. Interesting... i had a bit of a look up the footwell and low and behold I see water dripping down the wiring looms! I dare not look behind the ECU cover just incase im in for a shock. Sh!t. Is there anywhere for the water to come into the cabin?. I mean der, of course there must be somewhere but im not sure where. Possibly thru that air vent behind the battery (i think thats what it looks like). Would it come through there if I had no battery cover? Better yet, i wonder how water is getting down there... Thanks! JK -

Frank, the SHIELD pin - where does this connect to? Also do you run ground to all 3 RCA grounds or to EARTH ground? Thanks Jai -

Ive found what could have possibly been the issue, I have no battery cover so there was half an ocean sitting around the main wiring loom where it runs under the battery. The past few days have been fine so no rain, and the tranny is performing normally. I am going to have to price up a battery cover me thinks! The thud was probably from the jerkyness of the gearshifting. But having the whole dash go haywire says something was going funky everywhere! JK -

Hi Frank, can you please explain a little more clearly about the pin outs from the TV Control unit The plug looks like this : . . : (each dot represents the pin) Starting from the left, can you please advise what is a ground, video in, left audio in, right audio in etc. Thank you! 1st Top Pin - 1st Bottom Pin - 2nd Bottom Pin - 3rd Bottom Pin - 4th Top Pin - 4th Bottom Pin - JK -
Folks, brought a few of these from NZ so that I could get one that fits - I have a Medium and a 2XL available. I am 6ft tall and stack in at about 110kg and the 2XL is a very comfortable fit - ie not too tight - so a similar build would suit the 2XL. The medium I dare say you wouldnt want to be much over 5"10 and under about 90kg. I Paid about AUD$118ea + shipping, but willing to let them go for only the cost of the jacket (and you pay AUD$10 for local shipping) JK

My Auto Tranny & Dash Went Crazy Tonight!

Folks, I was driving along tonight and all of a sudden i noticed my Tacho bouncing up and down, then my VCS and Slip lights came on, then my speedo stopped working and when i put my indicator on it would cut in an out - ie not tick properly. Then the car gave a big thud from the tranny as it shifted gear - so i think its highly likely the Auto ECU wasnt changing the tranny properly as it couldnt get a correct RPM reading. I put my foot down and it didnt down shift. When i pulled up to lights it abruptly changed into 1st. I turned the car off and back on again and all was normal. Later on in the evening the dash started doing the same thing, and the tranny started not shifting properly (with the dash going funky etc). I then put the Auto into the Manual mode but the dash Drive Gear symbol didnt update, and the number of the gear didnt display. I could push - or + and nothing would happen, I then put the car in Reverse and the display still read D, but the car reversed OK - I then moved it back down to D and the Auto Check light quickly blinked on and off. All the time VCS OFF and SLIP were illuminated. It has been raining here but other than that I cannot think of any other reason for this to happen. Could it be the Dash itself on the blink? I assume like some Nissans the speedo and RPM go via the dash before going to the ECUs? If thats the case it would explain the tranny going haywire, but I dunno about the VCS off and SLIP. I tried pressing VCS but the light stayed on. Any insight would be great! JK -
Here is an interesting read on what BMWs do with Xenons! http://www.kenrockwell.com/bmw/540notxenon.htm JK

Either way, i wash my headlights weekly! haha JK

My car was complied here over 2 years ago i think! JK

I just checked the nissan website - http://www.nissan.com.au/z/exterior.asp Looks like the Z has pop up washers aswell. It is very possible that the law has changed recently, and therefore cars that were complied when it wasnt the law are exempt from it. JK

I thought i noticed that the 07s did have a pop up washer? New 08 WRXs have Self-levelling Xenon headlights with pop-up washer. See the little things under the headlights? http://www.cubicleofdoom.com/uploaded_imag...s4_3-760184.jpg http://www.autoclub.com.au/uploaded_images...b320-790164.jpg Maybe you've just never seen them pop up!

C-red have the full Borla Catback instock for $1600, maybe a bit less with a cash offer! Ive had a quick look over the net and Borla online is about $1200USD without shipping, online pricing about USD$900 without shipping - but the big pain is finding a company willing to go through the hassle of shipping here. most online stores wont! And shipping would run into about $150USD-$200 depending on who you use, so thats already getting close to $1400, and thats on a good day if it slides through customs! JK

Hi Everyone, Im probably not keen on bringing in body kits, I dont need one, but the smaller parts I do need I am keen on obviously. I will chase up some pricing this week for shipping etc, and my uncle in the US is onboard and will do the right thing by us for shipping Cheers JK
