Looks gorgeous this!

I don't fancy hustling a Z around 3 sisters, it was tight enough in my MX5! Proper workout for you.

I am far from expert, I took my MX5 to someone to take care of it, on the basis that before any underselling is done, it had to be prepped first. Wirebrushed off the surface rust, rust convert anything else, into the cavities etc, then it gets sealed after.

You're right to be cautious, I know a garage who see a lot of jap stuff and they have said since a lot of people DIY'd undersealing during the pandemic when they had lots of time and nothing to do, they've seen an uptick in rotten subframes with protection on top.

I am assuming that given yours is relatively new, it shouldn't be too bad underneath right now, but I would suggest you get a look under there and then either bone up on the process if you're doing it yourself, or try and find a good provider who talk you through what their process is. You can never be 100% sure, you have to trust your judgement.

The product you use is the tricky part - but wether or not you should protect Japanese cars from UK roads (JDM or otherwise) to me is an absolute no brainer - YES!

My 1998 Mk3 Hilux is like new underneath (which is good because every single panel is dented and scratched  ) because someone protected it years ago and maintained it.

Hi, looking for a bit of guidance around this issue, appreciate this sub might be inactive though. 
 

I have a 2010 370, I have the same part number as described in the Nissan Bulletin / Picture, however upon ringing my local dealership & Nissan Uk directly both have told me there is no outstanding recalls on my car.

 

The only thing I didn’t do was quote the Bulletin ID No, which I will ring them back to do. However anyone got any info on what more I could do? I haven’t got a problem paying for it, but I feel as if my model should have been flagged for a recall however hasn’t been, so should be fixed at Nissans cost.
 

Only thing I will do is double check the previous owner didn’t already have the work done, but I would had thought the part number would have changed.  

Whilst you argue with Nissan (and I think your question about how it could possibly be that's it's not required if the part number matches, is a good one) I think you should have a google at pulling the fuse to stop yourself being stuck. If they do eventually fix it, then you can always put it back before you drop her off.

Maybe 25 in chilli or brickyard red

Yep, those and the pump itself were my guesses as well but they all check out OK. 

If I'm correct BCM is on the righthand side of the drivers footwell? If there was water ingress I'd like to think I'd have noticed, as that's where I recently placed my crossovers. Its worth another look though. 

Are BCMs prone to issues on the 370?

Not that I’m aware of, but it’s a place to look given all the others are done. After that you’re into multimeter and checking for signal.

Relay and fuse were my best guesses, any sign of water, either current or historic, around the BCM?

Approved for now but please include a photo with you username on a bit of paper.

Not driven Mallory, but it looks more challenging and fun than I expected, how do you rate it for a track day and laps laps laps (rather than sprint)?

Welcome along. Problems with warm start for mine was cam position sensors. It was a long time ago now, but I think someone told me not to mess around with none genuine ones as the car was fussy.

Morning.

Admins have been on holiday over the BH weekend, apologies for the slow response.

You can't see you post, because you can't post for sale adverts yet - the rules on selling can be found at 

Gorgeous.

For anyone wondering about tyre wear, perhaps tempted to book on but worried you'll need to buy two new rears by lunch time? I used less than 1mm on this day out on my Cup 2s.
