There are some very useful guides on youtube if they help

 

Thank you. I'll have a look. Could you point me to one with goes into a lot of detail (I'm adept at using it, I just want to see if I am missing anything interesting).

Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the 2016 navigation manual in English. My copy is in Spanish, which is OK, but it's hard work at times.

My car was new in 2017, so it has the active noise cancellation/enhancement. Has anyone worked out how to switch it on/off/adjust it in any way?

Moved to the 350 area

Confused as to why. I am talking about my 370Z.

I bet this has been discussed before but I can't find it using search.

My throttle pedal has a "stop" just before it is fully to the floor. Just like a kick down on an automatic, but mine is a manual.

Is this usual. Is there any purpose for it?

The 370 looks good in the sun

Yes, the pearlescent white really does look good in the sun. I haven't had a white car before, but I thought it would be a good colour for Spain. It does show up every mark, though

As I understand you are in Spain right ?!

 

Or not ?! I'm confused

Indeed I am living in a town to the east of Madrid, and now drive a left-hand-drive 370Z.

Hi all,

After loving my 2004 350Z for 8 years, she was cruelly taken away from me by a chica in a Mini.

Anyway since then I have moved to Spain (near Madrid) and I got myself a Spanish 370Z. So far I am enjoying very much. Anyone else on here live in Spain?

Saludos,

Thanks. I've given it a bit of a spray. A hoover this weekend will hopefully sort it out. I'm sure my neighbours are also hoping I get it sorted.

Thanks. That was my working hypothesis. Do you know where the sensors are?

Hi all,

The last three nights the alarm in my 2004 350Z coupe has randomly gone off. 4am the first night, 11:30 the second and 1am the third. There was no one around, it just went off.

Does anyone have any thoughts about what may be causing this?

Does anyone know what type of sensors are used and where they are?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Interesting - thank you.

Probably clutch slave cylinder.

So could you say a bit more? What do you think is happening?

I experienced something odd whith the clutch a few days ago. I was pulling away at a roundabout, and I was a bit quick off the mark. I had given it plenty of revs, and as I pulled away the traction control activated and the clutch pedal moved down a couple of inches. It seemed to be holding the clutch at the bite point for a few seconds, but then it went back to normal. Is this some sort of protection mechanism, or is there something wrong with the clutch?

Silver or GM open top Zed in a petrol station near Serrekunda.

I overtook you today at about 10am between J18 and J17.

Yep. Here until Tuesday.

Passed the Green Lady at about 7:15 tonight.

Heading west at about 3:30 on Tuesday

About 5:30 tonight. Only caught a glimpse, but a very cool looking spoiler.

First gear in the snow? No wonder you weren't making progress!

My Zeds been known to spin the wheels in 3rd gear this month

Well I've known the zed to spin the wheels in 3rd on a wet road, let alone snow and ice - so yes.

The Zed in the snow is quite good fun. I quite enjoy my trips out in the snow. If you had to choose a car for the snow, a Zed would not be it - my wife's A class Merc is much much better. But for the shear sport of trying to make progress aginst the odds, you have to love the Zed.

Gentle inclines can be a bit of a problem, it depends on the nature of the snow/ice surface. There are times when nothing works - lost momentum, and had to give up - but this is rare.

As someone said, the back wheels want to move from higher to lower ground - including the camber on most roads. I have regularly found myself moving along the road at a bit of an angle, with the back wheels near the curb and the front wheels near the centre of the road. But once you get used to the strange position, its actually fine. When I get to a more grippy surface, I can get it straight again.

I carry a spade and a bag of grit in the car - not only for digging myself out, which I have had to do several times, but it also adds a bit of weight over the back wheels.

I saw a Blade coupe on the A346 (Marlborough road) heading north at about 11:30 on Saturday. I was heading south in my wife's car, so I didn't bother flashing.

Also saw a blue coupe on M25 in the roadworks (J17/18ish) at about 11:45 today. You were going west (in the outside lane contraflow) I was going east.

Its my part of the world, and its my MO, but I don't think it was me. I wasn't out and about on Monday.
