From what i've read, not easily.

I've not seen anyone actually do it, but it may be possible by splicing into the speaker cables.

Newly issued V5's have the number on for the online thing IIRC. Thats if you've got the V5 back from your plate transfer.

Yep as said, apply online and even if it doesn't get here on time its fine. See below

I have not received the tax disc. Can I use the vehicle without the tax disc displayed?

 

When you apply for a tax disc online or by using our phone service you are able to legally continue to drive your vehicle for up to 5 days after the tax disc has expired while you wait for the new tax disc to arrive. This will only apply when you have applied for a new tax disc before the current one expires. You should continue to display the expired disc on your vehicle, until the new one arrives.

Ah right, I was just searching for 1352 hence why I was probably getting no results.

Throttle position sensor.. doesn't sound too serious, is it a common fault for the light to come on with?

I'l have a look for the reset for it, cheers

Heres a picture of it.. Not embedded it due to size

No one have any idea what code the light is flashing?

Hi all,

Had my 350Z a month or so now but mainly just lurk on here.. don't know enough about the technical side of the cars yet to post much!

Well, on friday morning I went to start the car and when firing it didn't sound its usual self, and it started but died instantly. Restarted it and it was fine, but it logged a fault and the ECU light stayed on.

I've done the reset procedure just to see what the fault is before I take it to Nissan to have whatever fixed (I have extended warranty on the car.. but I wanted an idea of whether it was serious or not i.e accelerator sensor vs engine running lean!)

But I can't work out what the fault is. I've uploaded a video of what was flashing on youtube, see the link below.. It appeared to be flashing 1 3 5 2, then it went to 10 10 10 slow 10 which I guess is 000 and no fault so its cleared.

Does anyone have any ideas maybe i'm reading the flashes in the wrong order?, heres the video.

Thanks alot, much appreciated.

Check your driving style, if you drive with your foot resting on the clutch all the time, you might be slipping it slightly some times without meaning to.

I do 5 miles each way to work and back, then mixed town / A roads driving for the rest of my journeys, average speed is about 25 according to the computer. Get 360 miles to a tank. Could easily see over 400 if even 30% of my journey included motorway driving.

For a 3.5 litre I dont think its bad at all, before I bought the car I was budgeting for 18mpg so the 24mpg I average over the tank is

Wierd how they've done the graph as said above, and as for the abs light I'm guessing they may of used the brakes to slow the car down on the RR instead of blipping it as the revs drop.. big no no if they did.

I do a 5 mile trip to work and 5 miles back. only ever put £40 in at a time cos i really begrudge putting £80 in (well, i havent ever and probably never will) and that fills it up to half way. I get about 130-140 miles with that which will include a quick blast now and again. I am averaging about 17-18mpg

 

*****REMAP QUESTION**** Anyone with a remap notice much gains in mpg at all???

I also do exactly 5 miles each way to work and see 25~ mpg, blasts after work and weekend driving averages 22 though.

To be honest the Z more than makes up for the fuel costs in the fun factor alone, if anyone wants a more economical car do it, and leave us to melt the ice caps alone
