i have this awful ticking aswell except not just at idle..... clicks about every 30secs the whole time the motor is running!!

also when i push the button to lock in the 4wd it clicks twice really quickly....

picked the car up 3 days ago so is still covered by warranty....

all the fluid looks fresh so im thinking they didnt bleed the system.

i will put up what they find.

Cool, will be watching this thread with interest :)

well went in today and the mechanics at mitsubishi were scratchin their heads...

will prob have to go to dvg nissna in midland...

is it ok to be driving it around like this cause i think it is getting worse.. pulled the fuse out and the 4wd light came on and decided that the light would be more annoying

Yeah definitely don't pull the fuse, don't drive it without the fuse without removing the front driveshaft as well! apparently you have to drop front driveshaft to avoid doing damage in 2wd mode, not like R32's where u could just pull the fuse...

Lol just imagining a bunch of Mitsubishi mechanics all going 'wtf is THAT?' My clicking is only about every 10 seconds-30seconds when the revs are low(say 1,500 down to idle) and I have been driving around like this for a couple weeks; but I don't know how bad yours is... personally I would get it fixed asap, attesa pumps are expensive I hear.

she is under warranty so dvg will be up for some expence if they dun pull their fingers out

if it has to go to midland it will be goin on a flat bed!! i am not takin time off work to drive down there and sit around all day.

ill get on to them tomoz...

ow and is there any one around the mullaloo wa area have an s2 without a clicking relay?? to try a lil swapsies?

  • Locate air bleed connector. In an R34 its in a panel under the dash. In and R32/R33 its in the drivers side kickpanel. Connect and disconnect this wire to run the ATTESA pump.

what is this black unit that he is holding is it the air bleed controller?

what does it do? y is it there?

Well that is on a skyline I'm pretty sure (R32?) but I think I have found the Stagea one, I think it's the black connector (jumper) under the driver's side dash, on the firewall, at the bottom, to the right... sort-of at the back of the driver's side kickpanel... I will take a photo sometime.

Basically I believe the purpose of the jumper is for bleeding the ATTESA system without having to have the engine running. I think it works like thus:

- turn ignition on, but don't start engine.

- remove the jumper.

- the attesa pump starts and holds a constant pressure in the attesa hydraulic system, allowing for a very easy 'one-man' bleed operation where you only have to open the bleed valve(s) and let fluid out.

As I say, I only think that's what happens, from other members' advice and from reading sites like that one... but I reckon this is pretty close. I'm going to try bleeding mine as the clicking is getting worse and is annoying. It could also be doing harm. Fault codes say 77, which I think is the pressure switch. The manual shows that being integral to the pump assembly, just in front of the pump/diff. But there may be a wiring problem; hopefully just a fouled connector, perhaps from when they did my underbody cleaning at quarantine.... well I can hope.

well she goes in on tuesday... so glad i hadn't sold my lancer yet because they want the car for at least 2 days..

so devo that i wont be abe to go on the stagea cruise this weekend gotta work

the clicking is every 15-20 seconds now so im not driving it to much...

ill take it to work monday the towy is picking up from there... ill let you know what nissan says

any one know a good towy?? car has to go from wangara to midland..

have a good long weekend every body

Hey Elle, if you turn up at the cruise start you'll find plenty of Stageas without clicking relays.

I had one a few weeks ago............. i just couldn't work out where it was coming from, I was try to fix my lights, and was half sitting on the sill, but I had my fat ass against the electric seat control, it was a minimum low height, and was clicking cos it was overloaded!! :down:

nah is all the time...

clicks slowly at idle then faster when accelerating. :(

hey, had this problem on my s1 with a awn warranty, took it to savs auto electrics in cannington. take it to him if they cant fix the problem. he has worked on a few stags.. 2 of which were mine

well got the word back from nissan today...

they can fix it ... apparently it is an electrical fault ... so it has to go to an auto electrician...

so first thing in the morning it goes on a truck and comes back up this end of perth to a place round the corner from work...

and we send alot of work there so they will look after me..

ill let u know how it goes

ok well here goes....

went to the auto electricans... they had some idea but were not gonna touch it

so i took it to tenagah motor sports in wangara omg!! had a diagnosis in like 1 hour lol

it is the abs sensors.. so is going to auto spark malaga (which is where they send all their electrical work cause apparently the guy there is really good with imports, stephan i think his name is) tomorrow morning to get fixed....

will let u know exactly what the fix.. might have my car back this weekend.. yey

    • Convert to dual filament bulb   FWIW, it will look odd - I dare say a bit dumb as it looks like your flasher relay has shit the bed.
    • If the RB20 box in the car is a push clutch, then yes, you will need to deal with the pull clutch on the turbo box. You either buy a pull clutch and don't use the old one, or you do the things needed to convert the turbo box's clutch arrangement over to push. Which is a bit of a f**karound. "Making" a custom tailshaft is the easy part. But you will need to source the front clip yoke - the bit that goes into the output of the gearbox. These are not as easy to find. They are out there, but they don't grow on trees the way that they used to.
    • Indicator bulbs are way too bright to use as a "corner marker" (we call them parking lights too). Sure. Go ahead and do it. But realise that you wil need to come up with all your own wiring to do it, as no-one will have a standard howto worked out for Skylines. It's just a matter of abandoning everything that Nissan have done and starting from scratch. You'd probably be better off retrofitting tailght/brakelight globe bases into the front indicator housings and using the taillight circuit for your corner marker and the brake light as the indicator. You'd need to work out how to kill the marker circuit while the indicator is flashing, otherwise it won't flash on-off, just bright-less bright.
    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
