Hi Rudi

Was that the same import mechanic that has done all your other work?

Have you run an Informeter on your car to see what reeding the car is seeing? That may help to identify what is happening.

Do you know what the specific failure is that is happening to the AFM?

I presume you have tried your faulty AFM on another car to see if it works?

Cheers

Andy

Your mechanic is using a reader that doesnt communicate to our Japanese specific OBD2 port. Very few of the cheaper OBD2 readers do.

Why don't you come by my place some time and we can try the Informeter on your car to see what voltage you are getting on your AFM.

^ glad that was all that was open.....

Rudi, if all else fails, why not take it to Nissan and have then put on their Consult?

Both Consult 2 and 3 will plug straight in and read M35 Stagea's, regardless of what some dealerships tell you.

HOw much would they charge to read a code?

[iamhe77]

Depends on the dealership, sometimes nothing, sometimes $50 and sometimes they will charge you the hour.

Also depends on the service manager and how much he a) is a dick b) likes the look of your car or c) is interested in your car/problem

[ironpaw]

haha sounds about right. Don't suppose you know of a dealership in SE Melb that does it for free?
