OP, did you get your lock fixed ?

Just had mine fixed,just took a few simple phone calls to Nissan UK - 

Car went in today to nissan, they checked it over again, still the same fault as before.

Long story short it's all fixed, as a good will gesture Nissan paid 100% of the part and i paid the labour, sure i could have haggled and pushed for it all for free but i'm more than happy its finally sorted, phoning Nissan customer service was painless, my case manager was wonderful, couldn't be more helpful  

was a little surprised they had a lock in stock tho as they were all fixed back in 2010 

At some point i will take pictures of the new steering lock.

Car is booked back in with Nissan next week so they can check it again as its been a while,nothing as changed, then wait again it seems, fingers crossed.

Thanks for the info, sadly mine is an automatic.

Hi Guys,

my Z is coming up to it's fifth service, only done just over 20k miles , will it still need the spark plugs changing ?

anything else that will also need changing ??  

will be using my local independent, who i trust.

Had a call back on wednesday, seemed very positive that they (Nissan) can help in some way,liaisoning with the Nissan dealer i used, should hear something back early part of next week 

will have to double check with the garage

Finally got my act together and phoned Nissan customer service, got a case number, just waiting for a call back, in the next few days.

its due for it MOT in about a month, guess if the light is still lit it will fail ???

Hi Guys,

Had some family stuff to sort out hence no replies here, car still driving and starting as if nothing is wrong, haven't got in touch with Nissan as yet either, will get round to trying to get something sorted soon.

Cheers

yeah dolby atmos is great, we have a showcase cinema de lux at nottigham, different video, still shows off the awesome audio .

all the seats, no matter the screen number, are large lazy boy recliners, if the film is dull you can have a great nap

just been out to the car, seems like it does have the housing  for the steering lock, there are no sounds when pushing the start/stop button, there is lock illuminated, then acc then on, just tried the car 4 times and every time it started 

Guess i could just put some black tape over the light 

Thx colin, Anton the master technician, swears that all 370z have a steering lock, he said it could be sticking on 1 of the 2 pins that lock it, hence the fault, i did mention why there are no lights on the fobgina, said it could be part of the same fault 

yeah car drives perfectly every  time since the light came on, not paying £679.20 to just have the light turned off, the steering lock fuse as been back in just over a week as well and still it works apart from the damn yellow light on the dash.

 dropped car off this morning to nissan, they just phoned back, it is the steering lock that as caused the fault, they can clear it but comes straight back on, for the diag and a new part its around £730 

any ideas how to fix it cheaper or have i gotta bite the bullet ??

Bugger - should have listened to Alex and took it to Nissan, they couldn't find anything wrong apart from some low voltage faults that they cleared, light still on, they seem to think its the steering solenoid, yes they googled the problem lol, now booked in for 1st Feb at Nissan where i purchased it from and see what they say.

Hopefully its not a £1300 fix thats been suggested else where on the net, my local garage did say to inform nissan uk about the problem if the dealership can't find the problem and they may be able to help further.

Thanks Colin, thats what i thought, pulled the fuse anyways, can easily put it back in  

Car still working fine, booked car into my local garage on Wednesday, hopefully they can get to the bottom of the light problem 

should i still leave the fuse out when i pop to the garage ?

yeah that's what i'm thinking too, might try my local garage first see if they can help, thanks again for your help
