Hey all,

Okay this is sorta hard to explain, but basically throttle is real touchy, when driving say low gear 1st 2nd, and button off accelerator and put power back on i get this bunny hop goin on and lik wtf?

engine is gen 2 rb25det, complete factory besides fmic and atmo bov,

first thawt it was bov mounted really weird on the factory pipe that feeds into the intake for noise cancell i geuss? for tha factory bov the hole was blocked off? i dnt understand how this would work at all az there would be no pressure?

so put bov back wer it is factory and still have same issue, is there a vac line problem im missing or sumptin? also say wen driving 100 and foot flat then button off half way, takes forever to release boost pressure, maybe adjust bov or sumptin i duno?

Any help appreciated and sorry if you cant understand wot im trying to explain, cheers

yor problem is running a atmo BOV been covered so many times the stock BOV is the best especially when using a stock ECU the stock ecu expects the BOV the release and flow bac into the intake. thats your problem go straight back to the stock BOV

.. how about use an aftermarket plumb-back BoV not an atmo ..

or hell - just a factory one - they're fine in almost all situations and not a defect waiting to happen..

    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
    • To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
    • Son, in this country, that is a piece of Gyprock. f**king drywall. FFS! I also like the autocorrect of trailer to tablet. I was reading it and thing, "what the hell drugs is he on?" Then the photo made it clear enough.
