  1. Hi When I'm in 2nd gear with low revs, leaving a roundabout for example, the car's not pulling smoothly and kind of stutters/bogs down a little. Seems to get worse once it's warmed up. Did a quick search and saw a few threads about this on 313 350s, but nothing for 370s. It's done just over 30,000, has recently had an Invidia fitted, but was doing it before that was fitted. Any ideas? Cheers
  2. Up to +25 km/h in a built up area and 30 on the motorway they're fixed, above that they'll start looking at your salary. My last fine was 40 francs (£31) for going 1 km too fast
  3. 3 cars out of a group over from the UK caught doing nearly nearly twice the limit in a 80 kph zone on Tuesday.... A Jag F-Type and a Ferrari not sure... 575? confiscated and a total so far of CHF 9300 (£8500) in fines! I'm assuming they'll eventually get the cars back but it's not guaranteed! :scare: For anyone that speaks German (or just wants to name that Ferrari) : http://www.20min.ch/...-Raser-22213317 That's gotta hurt!
  4. just copy and paste this into google.co.uk and it should be the first thing listed: paul_s 370z reversing camera
  5. Ended up paying the rip off Swiss price for it, but had to be done. First impressions.... :lol: It's a bit louder than I was expecting! Having said that, I think I'm getting used to it after a couple of weeks, although changing down from 3rd to 2nd in town can be a bit embarrassing with the rev synchro Loving the burble and occasional pops when playing on the twisties. And of course tunnels are fun again After fitting went for a quick run Got to the top of this hill and stopped off at a restaurant. Just sat down when someone came running in saying a blue car was on fire and for a while all you could smell was my exhaust. I must admit, a lot of smoke was coming out of it! Just one thing worrying me. How much louder will it get once it's run in???
  6. Not sure I can put up a link for the one I have as it will take you to the dark side but in the interest of getting the best deal, google: paul_s 370z reversing camera £110 providing you have the connect premium. Paul's a top bloke, he sent mine to Switzerland and everything you'll need is included. Took me, a mod novice, about 2.5 hours on my roadster. The quality is actually better than the factory installed one on my Infiniti
  7. Guessing this doesn't happen often as a forum search came up with nothing, but it was 'melt your face off' hot in Zürich today and the Z was showing 20° C. Was about to close the roof as I thought its getting a bit cool but then I thought, as my face was melting off, I'd hit the aircon button instead. I'm assuming the sensor's faulty, so my question is: Where is the sensor and can I replace it myself? Or... Is there some reset procedure for it? Pedal dance, holding seven buttons down at the same time, etc Cheers
  8. One sticker is good for all Germany
  9. Yep, that's what I'm afraid of. Can't use a trickle charger easily as it's parked in a shared garage with no power nearby unfortunately. New battery it is! Thanks for the advice
  10. I'm going to give it a proper run out to see if it gets better, but any suggestions on what battery to get if there's no change? I only really use it when the weather's decent so it can be stood for weeks and then run for weeks as a daily. Just need something that holds the charge well when it's not being run. With garage cost, insurance etc, I was actually considering selling up as it was stood for so long.... But then I drove it again
  11. Hi Due to naff weather for the last couple of months I didn't get chance to drive my Z. First time I tried starting it, it only just made it, turning over really slowly to begin with. I took it for a good hours run to get some charge in and after that it seemed ok again. I'm now noticing if I leave it for a few days, it will start, but not instantly like normal. Also the volts seem all over the place, sometimes up at just over 14, sometimes 13 and if I just switch on the ignition without starting it's a mm below 12V. Do I just need a new battery or is something else maybe wrong? Cheers
  12. Wow! There's a company here (Switzerland) offering gigabit! I'm running a lousy 500Mb
  13. Just replace the clutch fluid first. Worked for me. Cooked mine on the Autobahn. It was black! Dealer bled and replaced the fluid and to my surprise after a mad blast up and down the autobahn, I'm talking foot to the floor for a good hour, the clutch was fine. The test drive cost more than the fluid change The car was 4 years old when I bought it and I'm assuming the clutch fluid had never been changed. Done a few mountains and Autobahns since and its still perfect.
