It could be numerous things including cam/crank sensors etc.

 

However an up rev tune may fix your issue,.

 

Take it to a 350 specialist who can perform the uprev tune.

Hi,

I think it may be something mechanical. It has been tuned by TDI North. It makes some strange noises too like clunking when changing gears. Unsure if it's possibly the diff?

Hi guys,

This problem has been getting worse on my car to the point where it's shown new symptoms. I have an 07 HR 350z. When warmed up the car sometimes judders / bunny hops very intermittently (like once every 30 or so times i set off). The other day though I was driving at around 80 and put my foot down, my car just juddered and didn't pick up any speed. It didn't seem to go up in revs so it wasn't like the clutch was slipping. Could this be the differential?

Sometimes when I put my foot down there is a delay before the power kicks in like a second or so like it's sluggish.

I really don't know how to explain this to garages and what they could check because I've had it checked over before and they haven't found anything wrong.

Thanks,
Toby

Hi, do you know what brand these are and if they're plug and play? 

I believe they were TORQEN, they do require some soldering or splicing. All cables are labelled and there is an easy to follow guide.

Not sure what it’s called  but you should find a identical one to one side of the radiator behind the grill. Guess there for channeling air towards the radiator. 

Oh nice one thanks! Do you think it’s needed?

cheers

No idea where to post this as there doesn’t seem to be a general technical sub. Anyone know what this is? Found it rattling about in my front bumper after hitting a duck.

For sale are these brand new smoked indicators bought from a member on here for £110 a few months ago. Haven’t had chance to fit them. Asking for £110 to make my money back.

Thanks

Toby

Was the ncb emailed or posted to them?

It was sent through their online portal in which they now insist is the only way to send it.

That's odd. I have had the same happen to me ie company claimed not to have certain documents from me but they dropped me a letter outlining a deadline etc. So I could follow up. I have always used specialists like Flux/Knott though who were you using?

They sent me one letter, to which it was after I had sent the documents in already. On the letter it said ignore if the documents have already been sent so I did. Since then I didn’t receive any subsequent letters however they did say they sent another.

Im with Churchill.

cheers

Hi guys,

sorry forgot to mention I paid around a grand off at the start of the policy. I’ve rang them today and it’s because they hadn’t received my no claims discount therefor bumped my premium up to 4400. I sent this through months ago. Resent it today and all should be fine and however doesn’t think I’ll get the money back before Christmas which kind of f**ks me over a bit.

Might be a silly question but was it a new policy 2 months ago or your previous policy brought onto a new car?

It was a new policy. And to answer the person below I’ve delclared everything at the start. Really boggled me

I checked my insurance portal and my premium has rose to nearly 4500 on the policy which seems rediculous as it was around 2200 when I took it out

I am paying an annual premium split over twelve months, I don’t have a black box fitted either. Haven’t rang them yet as I’ve only just realised. Will get in contact tomorrow. Cheers for the replies guys.

Hi,

I’ve had my insurance for just over 2 months and my insurance has just gone up from 135 pounds a month to nearly 400 pounds this month. I’ve logged into my portal and my premium has nearly doubled. Can the insurance company do this? I’ve had no warning of increase and the money has been deducted from my account. I’m insured with Churchill.

Cheers in advance

Yeah that helps a bit, but not great for being able to just see roads as its somewhat cluttered for city centres. 

 

I am astonished really that Google thought this was an improvement...its bonkers.

Use Bing maps. I hate Bing with a passion but the maps is actually quite good!

I think the standard rays have a rounded lug shape rather than tapered do they not?

Hello and welcome, looking forward to reading about your build!

I used to have a Blackview in my previous 350z / BMW and the quality was probably worse than the one I have now. I have a Crosstour Mini, came in at £39.

Hi guys,

My head unit had been installed before I purchased the car. The sound seems really quiet so I wanted to do the Buster mod. However I was greeted with a big mess of cables that I don't really know what to do / where to start with.

Heres a few pictures of the mess. I bought one of the standard Nissan radio install cables as instructed in the Buster mod to cut up as I thought the other cable would be installed but I can't see it or see what to do at all.

One slight problem now though, does anyone know any gearbox experts in or around the Hull area?

Happy Days:  

 

Do you mind sharing the name of the friendly helpful garage?

Yes! It's Auto200 in Mansfield. Despite the few niggles I've had they've bee very accommodating.

Definitely claim and take the service manager out in the car and demonstrate the fault, inducing the fault if you have to.

Don't be deterred by him saying that you are beating the syncro as you are changing too fast or by him saying that it is wear and tear.

If it comes to it, politely argue the case that it is a sports car and quick gear changes are part of the sports car experience.

Also, hold firm on that it is a mechanical failure issue and not wear and tear.

Good luck and keep us posted.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for that! I've emailed them and they've asked me to pop it into a garage and get a quote for repair and get back to them. They weren't hesitant at all to pay for the diff bushing repair so I think it'll go smoothly enough!

Cheers

I've been subscribed for approx. 5 months and have been happy with the variety of products and also the diversity of brands used. 

 

It's a good way to try out several different products without commiting to buying one then realising you don't get on with it.

 

The brands consist of usually a couple of the well known (chemical guys, Wowo's, Auto Perfection) to lesser known including Polished Pigs, Black Sheep and Alien Car Magic who's stuff I highly recommend, especially the glass cleaner. Some gloves and air freshners are then thrown in. 

 

I feel its still a little pricey at approx. £17 per month but again nice to open up a box of goodies and coming across something different. 

If trying products before committing to buying is your thing. You should look at: https://cleanyourride.co.uk/ he sells sample size products and they're all decent products too.

It has already had a gearbox rebuild in the past and have the paperwork for this too so seems strange but I think i'll give them a call today.

Cheers!

I have an 07 HR by the way
