Weird things you skyline does

what's a valet boot locking switch?

weird thing my 32 does is the climate control screen comes on and off randomly (mostly off now)...

valet boot locking switch is on the inside of the boot lock, when its on you cant pop the boot from the cabin. but with that your spose to have seperate keys for the boot and ignition but mine are the same so whats the point there?

also, my screen goes loco sometimes too.. instead of going off, every LCD part goes ON, sometimes only parts go on. It's a loose connection in there but I managed to score another climate control box for 5$

Mine seems to find speeding tickets where ever i go!!??!! I dont know how, or just why it does it.. but its has this uncanny ability to do it!

1. Every time I switch the ignition off the engine keeps on running for anywhere between 30sec & 2minutes. "After a few months of driving took it for a service & they fixed it...(nice guys didn't even charge me) they said it was something called a turbo timer & just ripped it out

2. Occassionally after a few drinks, I use to jump into the car & notice the dash & steering wheel are gone & moved over to the (as we know it) passenger side. I now realised that I was in the 56 thunderbird left hand drive

3. Dunno bout you guys, but does your fuel cap swap sides. Sometimes I go to fill up & could have sworn black & blue the cap was on my drivers side :confused:

[mtopxsecret6]

Yes, i have the fuel cap problem too.. Wel, on all my cars, they are all in this 'game' of fuel cap swapping, playing with my mind!

I get a boost cut when car is coldish, but when she warms up it dont happen, I am only on 0.6BAR.

But on a freeway it pretty much happens all the time, try to plant foot and WHACK I nearly headbutt the steering wheel.

Could be the spark plug gap. Use copper 7 heat range plugs and gap to 0.8mm and see what happens. It works on both my r33's.

I believe the headunit turning off during gear changes is probably a ground issue (as said).

On my car there is a ground wire connected to a bolt at the top of the gearbox near the shifter. If this has at some stage wrapped around the gearstick underneath the gear-boot it may cause problems if that ground was used for something.

Let me see what the weird thing about my car.

My driver's side electric window switch is really sensitive. One small touch and it will wine down, even going over bumpy road sometime.

My climate control off button is jammed for some reason and now I can't switch off my climate control.

And now my antenna is stuff too. It will go up but wouldn't retract automatically, have to get out and shove it back down.

i have a funny button in my ash tray and when i push it, the car goes much faster

[akeenan]

i have a funny button in my ash tray and when i push it, the car goes much faster

but the weird thing with my car, is the dimmer switch for the dash, that was put in for compliance is in the most stupid position its so easy to bump...

well my car doesnt have that problem, in fact, it doesnt have a dimmer switch at all lol

[Ash]

how did u get compliance widout dimmer switch...

[mtopxsecret6]

Remove it afterwards

My climate control makes a knocking sound when i turn the car on does about 8 or so times also does it when the aircon changes fan speed.

My seat belt makes a clicking noise which I also now can rarely hear after exhuast install. :bonk:

Yeah I noticed when I pulled the climate controll out in my 34 that when I put it back and switch the car on for the first time after that it makes a horrible knocking too. I think it's some type of system reset thing, maybe a system check. I'm an electronic engineer and it puzzeled me :wassup:

[PHaT MR30]

hmm where to start!!!

I get a click click noise when i start moving, the same noise but much worse at high rpm/high boost, sounds like a driveline noise.

where do i start with wiring! theres heaps of it! sunroof closes to about 3" opening then you have to take your hand off and press switch again.

aircon doesn't work cos some gimp took it out!

main concern is my battery can go flat very quickly, its only a piss weak lil thing, but like when i was installing a cd player and testing stuff out it went flat.

i left it for 2 weeks and it wouldn't start, charged it started it, moved it around. i stuck my head in and could tell just by looking that it was flat (fuel guage not reading, interior light not on) my skyline has sat there since july and i start that every so often and she first first time

mine seems to have a disturbing ability to tempt P Platers in mummys car at the lights...

[Bill]

Has two annoying things as well.

One is a stupid noise it makes under no or low engine load ever since I had the E boost fitted. (really annoys the wife)

Listen to it here

The other tink is it seems to loose power for a sec at around 5000rpm when the boost is on or over about .7 bar (I suspect that this wont be an issue when the new computer is fitted)

[PTR33]

how did u get compliance widout dimmer switch...

Probably the same way mine did... I have searched all over and I would bet my leftie that my car hasn't got one fitted.

The only wierd thing about my 'line is that it makes most falcodore drivers think that they are Peter Brock or Dick Johnson.

mine was doing something similar, pulled the stereo out to find the power wire to the deck was hanging on by sticky tape. just reconnected it and put it back on properly with alot more tape
