    Did you actually replace the manifolds or just cat back ? What brand of exhaust parts did you fit ? How do you know that it is running to rich ? What year and model is your 350 ?
  2. ZMANALEX
    Ouch !!!!! A combination of running out of talent on cold tyres.

    The after market ones stick on, so you grease the side that makes contact with the piston.

    Do it I run them.

    Nissan do not sell the shims. CMS have the shims in stock.

    Did you remember and fit noise reduction anti squeal shims ? OEM genuine Nissan Brembo pads from the dealer have the shims bonded to the rear of the pad. Aftermarket genuine Brembo pads have no shim bonded to the rear so aftermarket shims are required.

    Best to run with OEM. CMS have them in stock.

    Should not rattle loose if torqued up properly. However I always fit spring washers.

    Same size as the OEM bolt + extra length for the thickness of the spacer. Make sure that you fit good quality spring washers and that you fit a bolt and not a set screw.

    The fronts tend to be very tight sometimes. As has been said, use a good quality socket that will not slip. Use a 600mm breaker bar, and get the leverage angle right, and you will be on the home straight.

    4 hours is plenty.

    I would get the bumper off and assess the damage properly. Was expecting much worse actually. You must have been almost stopped or the deer was the size of a rabbit. Alex.

    Now sold: Thank you for all enquiries. Alex.

    Warped discs?

    Assuming that it is not a wheel balance problem, then it will probably be a DTV issue. Get it checked out.

    A proper full geometry will sort your issues. You may have to install geometry corrections arms to get the settings back to within tolerances. Don't waste your energy looking for other issues as this will be your problem, unless you have fooked up with the spring/wheel install.

    The recommended way and the procedure that I follow is to apply a 5mm bead of RTV all the way round the centre of the sump pan mating surface. Do not smear with your finger. The pan should be refitted immediately, bolts torqued up and then left to cure for at least 30 minutes before oil is added. Hope that this helps. Alex.

    Jonathan, The air bag control unit (module) is positioned under the centre console However these only require replacement if air bags have been deployed. However all is not lost if it does turn out to be faulty, as a module reset only costs £25.00 Hope that helps. Alex.

    help!

    Get all the wheels off and check your brakes including the brake fluid reservoir. Do not drive until resolved.

    That should fit, just the HR cats and mannies that are not compatible with the DE
  24. ZMANALEX
    The cats or decats are not interchangeable.
  25. ZMANALEX
    Brakes are the same. Exhaust is similar from Y back. No change to the rust issues.
