  1. Winding this back a little, you say the ESP anti skid warning light came on - this would explain the slight hesitation. Could be the hesitation is being caused by the ESP kicking in rather than throttle bodies and camshaft sensors. I had the same experience with my 2005 350z, started with the odd hesitation when travelling at a constant speed but then became more pronounced - accompanied by the ESP light coming on. Turn ESP off and the problem disappeared. In my case I discovered the front wheels were out of alignment and the nearside tyre had worn considerably more than the driver side. Took the car in for a four wheel alignment (best £50 I have ever spent) and put two new tyres on - problem solved. My 350 is now on 149,000 miles and drives impeccably. As with lots of marques, error codes can often be very misleading and are the delight of many main dealers because they just keep replacing the parts. Some errors can be instigated due to a small voltage fluctuation - i.e. the fault is not necessarily permanent nor does it require a part to be replaced. Many owners have experienced the airbag light coming on and it can be reset very easily, my engine management light has come on from time to time and I just reset the codes with a simple OBD reader. If there is a genuine fault the warning light will come back on immediately and will require further investigation. I suggest you just try switching off your ESP (just don't floor it when exiting bends, might end up facing the wrong way) and see if the problem persists. If the problem goes away then consider the cheapest option first, tyres and wheel alignment - my guess is this will cure it.

  3. About to carry out the same procedure on my roadster - in case you have difficulty I got replacement cables here; https://www.convertibletopguys.com/convertible/1753/2004-2009-Nissan-350Z#install Came from America in less than two weeks. Both original cables had snapped and things were getting a little draughty. I'm sure there is a parts catalogue on the site as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  11. Having a similar issue. Have been rolling on 20 inch wheels for over a year with no issues. Fitted new tyres in February, all good but noticed excessive tyre squeal at low speed when turning right. Took the car for a four wheel alignment, rear was ok but the front was out quite a bit. A few days later I had the nasty experience of the esp light coming on in the middle of a right hand bend and the car trying to correct a problem that wasn't there. Cannot reproduce the problem in left handlers and it only happens when you in the bend taking your foot off the accelerator, if you stay on the throttle it does not happen. I switched off the ESP and tried again, right hand bend, foot off the brake, problem gone. Tried again but this time applying the brake and everything went messy like the ABS was trying to correct things when there was nothing to correct. Visit to the garage, no errors showing, no visual damage to the ABS ring but what I did notice was the way the front near side tyre had worn to the inside edge - down to the wear bar - could this be the problem?

  12. I need a front wheel arch liner, front drivers side, washer bottle (headlight washer type) a drivers side headlight washer unit, the polystyrene that goes over the slam panel and the front number plate mount if any of you have them? (went ice skating on Friday last and wiped off the front bumper, nor pretty). These are all for an 05 Roadster. Thanks in advance
