  1. I'll be trying to get it into a garage asap but wondered what people thought. On the motorway doing 69mph and the engine management light started flashing. I had just changed lanes and had gone over some rediculous pot hole. Flashed about 15 times then stopped. 1 minute later it did this again. After this went on for about 3 times it stayed on. The car felt like it had lost a cylinder, it would accelerate but slowly. It also sounded rough and additional vibrations coming through the gear stick. I pulled over, restarted the engine and it fired up fine with the light gone. It will be due its 72k service imminently, could it just be the plugs need changing?
  2. Great looking (and sounding) car mate. ....and yes I do spend my time driving around roads trying to find other Zeds 😂
  3. Asthmatic washing machine 😂 I'm considering a cobra system. What is it like on the motorway? I do a lot of motorway miles and not sure I could hack a constant drone! Also have you gone for the y-pipe?
  4. The drivers side door lock/unlock button has stopped working. The passenger side still works and keyless stop start. Key battery is fine. It happened the other day after I was in the car and pressed to lock the car from the inside. Any ideas for a fix?

    The price I got it for made up for the wheels ☺ï¸
  9. Indeed I did. I was trying I weigh up the spec difference vs price over the 09/10/11 cars. Ultimately the differences seemed pretty minimal (of the ones I could find out!)

    Cheers all. I'm thinking about getting the wheels refurbed. Any recommendations near Redhill (South of the m25 preferably)? Also looking for a recommendation for a decent garage (servicing etc), again near Redhilll.

    New Ride

    I took the plunge today and went for a 370Z! It's a 2010 GT spec in blue. The second blue Zed I've owned. Really chuffed. As you can see I was pretty quick to go for a drive with a fellow Zed owner!
  12. I've copied across from the other thread below. They have separately listed the GT edition and then the 2011 changes for the Zed.....although both are very similar. These are the same details from Wiki. It would be nice to find the old nissan brochures for each year.....gives the definitive answer to all specs with what was included/optional. 370z GT Edition (£35,000, 1 June 2011 - 2014?) Base Spec + GT Pack and: • "Revised underbody insulation to reduce road noise" • Suspension reworked for UK roads • Connect Premium (High resolution touch screen satnav, iPod connectivity, 9.3GB hard drive) comes with reverse camera as standard • Dark Grey 19" forged RAYS alloy wheels. • GT Edition side decals • Available in 3 colours: Storm White, Ebisu Black and Black Rose ******************************************************************* 2011 Model Year Changes to 370Z: • New tire pressure monitoring system • Revised suspension for UK roads • A rear view camera integrated into the Nissan Premium Connect satellite navigation system • Improved isolation of road noise on the Coupé • Automatic versions of both Coupé and Roadster have a revised 'Snow' setting for enhanced grip when setting off on ice and snow
  13. Thanks Wayne. Some of the details on here are the same as on wiki that I don't think are correct: 2011 Model Year Changes to 370Z: • New tire pressure monitoring system • Revised suspension for UK roads • A rear view camera integrated into the Nissan Premium Connect satellite navigation system • Improved isolation of road noise on the Coupé • Automatic versions of both Coupé and Roadster have a revised 'Snow' setting for enhanced grip when setting off on ice and snow I'm sure some people have these items on their 2010 cars....

  15. Cheers Wayne, I figured there would be a list somewhere, I had searched the forum before posting with no luck. Hopefully someone can point me in the direction of the thread. That's interesting about the nav pack, I guess hardly anyone went for a GT spec without it then.
  16. Morning all, I am currently in the process of getting another Zed although a 370 this time. Please just link me to a thread if this has been answered elsewhere. What are the differences in spec between the 09/10/11 years? Wiki lists these but when checking in my friends 370 the specs are different for example......wiki takes about rain sensing wipers coming in on the 2011 cars yet his is 2010 and still has this feature. I test drove a 2009 manual GT a few days ago. It seemed to have most of the GT features (wheels rev match etc) but had no infotainment system (no satnav etc). Was this not part of the GT pack?
  17. I am actually in the market for another Zed. I'm not in the country at the moment but if the car hasn't shifted by next week I'll give you a shout and sort out coming to have a look. I'll have to run a few insurance quotes in the mean time to see how the mods impact my premium!
  18. I would expect at least £300 including the bearing and labour, if you sourced the part yourself off a 350 that's being broken for parts it will be much cheaper Argh, I've got to sort the nearside rocker cover as well which is pretty labour intensive. Sucks
  19. It sounds like I have exactly the same issue. I only notice that noise when turning hard left at about 5mph (whenever i'm driving out of the car park). Noise comes from the front offside wheel. If it is a wheel bearing what sort of price would you expect to pay to get it fixed, if taken into a garage?
  20. Stupid question but what is the fuel tank size on an 04 350Z? I've been reading different numbers, some saying 80l while others saying 76l. I would go get the manual out of the car but its raining Also what is the best MPG people have found on motorway driving? 35mpg at 70mph with cruise control on?
