my control for the passenger electric seat to tilt it up and down is bust - does anyoner have one up for grabs? or know where i could get one from cheap

hi - its not that they dont light up at all its just that they are very dim and hard to read - would this be explained by a short?

hi there - i can barely see half of the lights on my dash switches (except for indigo dials) - they are really faint - also was there any illumination on the elec windows as mine does not have any any guides on how to change this? also when i put sidelights on the lights on my heater pod disappears! ahhhh :cry:

Great stuff - thanks very much - that link is good too as i want to know my way around the engine and do as much as i can myself - may be a girlie but i'm into cars in a big way! :nana2: Will check the fluid myself - what do you use to top it up - is it specialsit stuff or can i get it from high street motor shop It does feel a bit skippy to be honest - will get joints checked out - are they easy to identify as my garage is a novice on these beasts ;)

Any thoughts or tips welcome - the HICAS light comes on when i have been driving for about 20 mins in the motorway at high speed - on normal b road driving it does not do it - any ideas? Also can anyone like Kwik fit check whether the HICAS is working correctly and toppped up? As it just does not feel right at the mo but as i'm new to these cars i dont know! (normally would not go to these guys but gonna pop in for wheel balancing) :bow:

cheers chappies -ever so helpful!! ;)

hey there Andy - no i have always been trinster and relatively new member - i may need your services as i'm struggling with my local garage in york who is doing his best but he does not know these cars! ;) do u know anyone near me?

hi - think i have given you all you need except for memebership number which i have tried to find but no luck - is this ok? thanks ;)

sorry to be a twit but will the mongoose be ok with my system which has the cats removed? :confused:

is blue flame the name of the shop or brand? - thanks so much for your tips guys - so glad i subscribed up to this forum! just awaiting me membership pack :rofl:

Hi all you Z owners - i've recently purchased one and haveing 1001 probs with it and my local garage is fdoing its best but they are struggling - how much is it worth buying a consult? How easy is it to use - i have a PC but i'm a girlie and not certain of where to rig it to but i have so many running probs! :rant:

Mongoose - mmm - how loud though? hee I know the original will corrode that is the compromise for me - ideally want full stainless system that is quiet! :D

hee good ideas fellas - the kwik fit and swap!! I'm not a fan of kwik fit but have used them in the past to suss out stuff then ordered the part myself cheaper and got my local garage to sort it out - hee when my car is next in for an endless list of fixes will get some photos taken of full system :nana2:

hi guys - thanks for comments - it is a full system de-cat - not sure about silencers - tihnk original system would be best best - what makes the noise though - is it lack of silencers, large rear pipes? ;) would still like rear boxes to look good though - can i add nice ends onto the original system without too much noise - i'm a girlie cant u just tell by my posts - ha :nana2:

hi there - dont suppose you have that spare temp sensor going spare do you? :D

HI - my recent purchase of TT UK Manual came with a twin powerflow exhaust system which i appreciate is good for performance but its just way too loud - the constant drone is doing my head in - i do like to hear a V6 roar but more when i do hard acceleration not while i'm sitting in traffic! I need to source a quiet exhaust system and will then sell the system i have - how quiet was the original system? Where should i go to source this as most systems are setup for sound! :o

:rofl: cheers Znut - your car looks very similar to mine (which i have just bought) - what spoiler do you have as i have the same one but its a bit OTT for me and thinkin of selling it and replacing with 99' spec spoiler is that a powerflow system too? I havent got round to putting my pic on yet

ah good idea - i have it in for service so will get them to do that - this car has been stored for over 6 months so that wont help! cheers ;)

I'm having fun and games with my beast at the mo - in addiiton to having the dreaded 34 knock sensor fault its running at high revs - at 2000rpm when cold then drops to 1500rpm when warm - this feels too high for me - any suggestions? The revs also increase when i dip the clutch - any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated!! :hyper:

sorry Sharky but link does not work ;(

do you have any guides on bypassing the sensor then? i do have a very good garage but they are not clued up on these cars :( really need someone who is in my area (north yorks!) :confused: :rant:

thanks for info guys - are you saying that that bypassing is safe then? my car is also running very rich. the garage picked up the knock sensor fault, reset it then it came on again

would i still get it running in safe mode even if wiring was faulty - the boost is very erratic at the moment - sometimes it will kick in sometimes it wont :shock:

Would the garage be able to check the wiring then? Dont want to get this done unless necessary - oh and Nissan have advised it would be 2 hours labour £140+VAT plus £70+VAT diagnosis plus the part have heard that bypassing is not a good idea? :confused:
