Best thing to do is get the part number from the ECU , then Uprev dealers can work out if they have the correct Rom file to allow the tuning to be done to your ecu. You can either remove the ecu and read the part number or a frindly Nissan dealer can see the Ecu number if they connect a consult to your car.

def top end noise , has your car been using oil? really need to hear it 1st hand , but I would say def get the cam covers off and have a good look at all the cam lobes.

This was from Abbey , replied last night from my fathers computer

sounds like a weak synchro , have you changed the oil?if so what came out with the oil anything metal? Gearbox can be rebuilt , but it may be cheaper to fit a good S/H gearbox.

My ideas, the car have non hydraulic tappets (lifters ) the Bucket under the cam come in many diiferent sizes that you replace to get the correct valve clearance (tappets clearance in old days) If you need to adjust the clearances it is a pain job , the motor is better off coming out as you need to remove the engine front covers then the cam chains and then the cams. The cars do have trouble with the cam chain tensioners if they have been run low on oil again they can be done in the car but it is far better to pull the motor to do this job. Can you record the engine noise and host the vid on u tube or mail it to me mark(@) abbeymotorsport.co.uk so I can listen to it and then I maybe able to shed some light on what the problem maybe. hope this helps

Sounds like BCM control module under the radio in the centre condole. disconnect the box and refit this sometimes works. have you a local friendly Nissan dealer? Consult will help you out. Mark

okay , working on service pricing, we only use quality oil and genuine parts. Been looking at the Up Rev stuff, looks like we cant provide the multi map(switched by the cruise control sw) that UpRev do for the US nissans, seems our Euro ECU,s has to much Code packed into the flash rom to allow the patch to be loaded into the ECU to allow this to work. But I have some idea,s which I hope to work with Up Rev with. Will be in touch within a few days with pricing on above ideas. Mark

morning chaps and girls (thats for you Mr Madden) Yes we are a Up Rev dealer we will be around the same price as RS tuning with regards the remaps, but we may do the deal a little different. I will be working on prices/stage early next week. thanks for all the kind words. Mark
