  1. You will require it on a ramp and once you drop the transmission crossmember access is fairly easy, trust me. If you are finding it difficult, before you start removing the switch, I would suggest that you disconnect the wiring connector from the switch and test the lights in the appropriate manner, just to establish if the switch is definately faulty. Alex.
  2. The RLS is just up the L/H side of the transmission casing and quite easy to get to. #27 from the schematic. Alex
  3. Hi and welcome to the forum Steve. I also live just a few miles outside Dundee. Alex.

    Black sun visors

    I have a pair of preowned original black sun visors if required. Both have vanity mirrors with working illumination. Just drop me a PM if I can help you further. Alex.
  5. The pad click will more than likely just be the pads moving in the caliper, and regards the light issue, I would treble check your brake fluid level. Alex.
  6. 5W30 fully synth is the recommended lubricant for the VQ35DE. The tensioners and chains can be replaced but it is not a two minute job. For your correct oil and filter requirements, just drop a PM to: http://www.350z-uk.com/user/19714-clark-motorsportzmanalex/ (http://www.350z-uk.com/user/19714-clark-motorsportzmanalex/) Alex.
  7. Timing chain rattle for a few seconds is quite common on the VQ35DE. Correct oil viscosity and level is very important. Chain stretch and tensioner and slipper wear is also common on high mileage motors. Just remove the R/H inspection cover to view the main chain tensioner and if you find that the tensioner is extended by more than 10mm then you will have a stretched chain. Remember that you have 3 chains on the VQ35DE and other issues can also cause chain rattle. Alex.
  8. Jamie, let me know what the fault code is and I will soon tell you what the EML issue is. Also remember that you have to press the brake before the roof will work. Alex.
  9. I run the full 7 piece GT Spec kit on my 350Z Roadster. You will probably have to elongate the mounting holes on the rear lower bar so that it fits the repositioned toe bolts. There is always the chance of movement of the snail cam adjusters and that is why you should fit adjustable arms and then fit lock plates to the redundant snail cams. Alex.
  10. Orriss, Your Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected that the throttle control motor relay is stuck ON. Power supply for the throttle control motor is provided to the ECM via the throttle control motor relay. The throttle control motor relay ON/OFF is controlled by the ECM. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the ECM sends an ON signal to throttle control motor relay and battery voltage is provided to the ECM. When the ignition switch is turned OFF, the ECM sends an OFF signal to throttle control motor relay and battery voltage is not provided to the ECM. This will explain why you are going onto limp mode. Just because the relay is stuck on does not necessarily mean that the relay is faulty. Possible causes including the relay, could be dirty connections, faulty wiring, or even ECU or IPDM. Alex.
  11. Preowned bonnet urgently required for 350Z VQ35DE. This is for a "shy" forum member in the Manchester area who prefers to collect and pay cash. Let me know by PM what you have. Alex.

  13. No drama mate, looks like I will just have to fit it to my own car after all: :lol: The boot is a cheap part from Nissan at only £7.52 + vat so not the end of the world. Alex.
  14. I have one of these in stock and good to go next day. I was keeping this for my own car but you are welcome to it. Just drop me a PM if I can help you further. Regards, Alex.
  15. The last Track Scotland KRC Open Pitlane 4 hour session of 2013: Book now or be disappointed as these sell out very quickly: :drive1 :drive1 http://www.trackscotland.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6246&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Alex.
  16. 1 x litre per 1000 miles is common on the rev up. Either live with it or sell it on remembering to disclose the oil consumption issue. Alex.

    Facelift bumper

    Remember that if you move from prefacelift to facelift you will have to acquire the facelift headlamp washer motors, brackets and jets and colour coded covers as the fitments on the inside of the bumper are different and these can be expensive. Alex.
  18. Great to see your dad making such a remarkable recovery Mark. Be sure to pass on my best wishes, Alex.
  19. Just flick off the round plastic cap at the base of the wiper arm and retighten the 14mm nut. Alex.
  20. Mike, Probably just needing the external nut retightened so that the arm grips on the splines. Alex.
  21. Not sure what your issue is but all parts will be stock and good to go same/next day. Just drop me a pm and we can discuss furher. Alex
  22. The rear sensors are handed. New and preowned sensors are in stock and good to go same/next day. Alex.
  23. £1.00 each here if aftermaket preferred: http://www.driftwork...nissan-etc.html Alex.
