  1. Thats a great price - for the Pilot Super Sports on 19" rims (tyre sizes 245x40 and 275x 35)? The 19" set is a bit more expensive at £990 for the Michelin or Dunlop SP Sport 1 for £840 fitted.
  2. If you need an SD card than yes it is double price of the DVD around £330, depend on the model of your head unit.
  3. keep us updated on your tyre selection..........as mine are due soon now as well - 12,000 miles does that seem about right ? I would recommend Michelin Super Sports, you can get a full set in OEM size for £745 (fitted).
  4. Nice car and great intake kit. Few picture of them after fitted is a must
  5. Michelin's are good choice (they are also the most popular tyre brand for the GTRs nowadays). I can get a full set fitted for £745 if anybody interested.
  6. I'm looking forward to meet you and your beast!!
  7. I understand your point and agree the steering lock isn't a useful device anymore. Nowadays they more than likely to break into your house and grab your key for the car. But I think insurance companies wouldn't agree with us and they will reject any claim they can .
  8. I just check the video (worked for me) it is awesome :teeth: you must bring that down to my workshop one day
  9. PhotoShop ? :lol:
  10. It's only throw you fault code up if it's well out of specification, it still can be running rich just a bit and causing the soot without fault codes. Otherwise I agree I wouldn't worry about it, just wash the car and enjoy the power. :D
  11. @Steve-r I have find the fuse it is there. Going by the Service Manual and it's wiring diagram taking the fuse out will give you a Steering Lock Relay(B2607) fault code not the Steering Lock Status(B2612) fault code. So a good technician going to find out you was taking the fuse out (or he will investigate a power supply fault at least.) and there is no fault with the lock itself. I would be surprised if they replace the lock anyway if they can not reproduce the fault at all.( all warranty questionnaire starts with this : did you confirm the customer complain?) @ Doctor Austin Are sure you want to take off one of the anti-thief feature of your car (the steering lock) because it may will have a fault in the future? I just thinking if your car stolen and recovered by the police later, than your insurance company find it out the steering lock been disabled with that connector what they going to say to you ?!
  12. That's a great write up Kev, thank you very much. Have you actually done this? I just wonder if the fuse is there in the UK/Europian cars (I haven't got one in my workshop at the moment to double check.) as fuse hasn't been mentioned in the service manual. Now that's why I love this forum, I always learn something new .
  13. Yes I would think so. The countermeasure was introduced from late 2008 on the Murano (and the first 370Z in UK was sold beggining of 2009), but still seen a few failed after that. More than likely it caused by higher average temperature, as I said I didn't hear any 370Z to fail only Murano and a few GTR. I wouldn't worry about this on a UK 370Z. (Otherwise I checked the wiring for you and there is no dedicated fuse for the SL all powered from the IPDM SL relay so you would need to remove all electric fuses one by one to find which connected to it, but IMO it's not a good idea. )
  14. I haven't seen any Z steering lock to fail yet, but as they are looks the same as the Murano's or the GTR's so I wouldn't be suprised. It is caused by too much grease inside (when the grease reaching the electric motor it's causing reduced power so it will stuck half way and that's will trigger the fault code). Depending how much grease reached the motor it is may possible to repair the lock.(I have done a few on Murano's and GTR's some still OK, but some was unrepairable.)I will look into the wiring late on today for you and find out if any fuse removal can reproduce the fault.I hope this helps. Nissan modified the parts after they find this problem so if your car newer than you have better chance to have a good one fitted already.
  15. For whatever reason the link doesn't work anymore. If it's constantly beeping than you have a fault with one of the sensors. Try to put your fingertips over the sensor while it's on you should feel the working ones buzzing. If all of them buzzing than it's could be internal fault of the main unit. I hope this helps.
  16. You need a Nissan dealer or a decent garage with correct computer equipment to code the keys in. There is no way to code the keys without the NATS pin code and the Consult. (or capable aftermarket computer.)
  17. Good to hear you had find the noisy area. I hope you get it sorted
  18. On un-tuned cars it's usually the MASS sensor faulty (or dirty) have it checked by a good tech. Mapping should make it worst
  19. There is no potential damage. It is only annoying.
  20. Sorry, but he is wrong. Even Nissan recommends this to be done and there is no solid connection between the drive shafts and the diff as 350Z has an independent suspension at the rear so there is no "pre-load" on the diff by the shafts.
  21. Done different locations, different fobs no difference. Than it's possible you have an internal fault of the I-Key ECU have it checked by a specialist or Nissan Dealer if you are brave enough
