cool? it's a pain in the a$$. My GTR has this chime, but thank f**k the previous owner 'tried' to disable it so it only works intermitently and when it does work it's muffled. the strange thing is it never used to activate when I was using my kakimoto ecu, when I put the power FC in I noticed it straight away, possibly just a coincidence though. I say get rid of it as soon as is possible.

Its up under the kick where your left knee is. Smallish black box say 2-3inchs by 3-4 inches. Just unplug it, go for a drive. If its the door one, PUT IT BACK, it can play up with your central locking etc if its the door/left the lights on beep one.

yer that thing drives me insane.. i also changed ecu's and it went away but guess what... its back! smallish black box you say?... that little f%#k is dead tomorrow!

There is about 3 of them tho. So just unplug them one by one first. From memory it was the far left one. But I took mine out well over a year ago, so I really cant remember.

My gawd I thought it was something wrong with my speedo or something. I had a suspicion that it was a speed warning as it always comes on at the same speed - a ticking sound - but it seems inconsistent - seems to have stopped now.

Kills you when driving long distance in 110k zones - just have to turn up the stereo.

Yeah its the furthest to the left. Just stick your head under there and you can see it. Really simple to remove. Removed mine 2 weeks ago.

You guys are lucky. On the 32's its located directly behind the instrument cluster. You have to dismantle the dash to get to it so you can snip the wire.

When your looking for the cef one, if you remove the door/light chime you will this will affect your alarm/central locking (if you got it) the only way to over come this is to wire them into each other so you still have a closed circuit. But this will eliminate your warnings by doing this.

:P

LoL. Dude TRUST me it is still there. Easy way to tell, when you go to sleep, do you hear this DING, DING, DING and see 110kmh on a circle when your dreaming?

    • Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.
    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • 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
