jroper321 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Hi Guys, New to the forums I bought a Nissan 370z today and it has a few (minor) issues. I was wondering if people would be able to share their knowledge on how to fix these. I live abroad, so a scrap yard with spare parts would be next to impossible L 1 – The driver’s (electric) seat won’t go all the way forward. I can right side is moving, but the left side doesn’t move at all. I’ve sprayed the left side with lots of WD40 but no joy!! 2- The windows won’t move! However, when I open the passenger door, the window goes down ¼ inch, but it won’t go down through any of the switches. The driver’s window keeps falling about an inch or so, and I have to manually push it up every time – but this one doesn’t work through the switch either! Is it a case of resetting something? Or has the driver’s window come off a roller? Fuse? 3 – The aerial is completely snapped off, so I should be able to get it out. As I mentioned I don’t have easy access to a scrap yard, is there something else I could use as an aerial (Cosmetically appealing ofc) 4 – Is there a way to change the dash board from Fahrenheit format to Celcius format? 5- Just out of my own curiosity. Is there a way to reduce the power/Fuel consumption on the car? It’s a really nice car and I love it, just these few minor issues are bugging me!

Mudman Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Welcome The windows are meant to lower a tadge - same on the 350z any vehicle sparks should be able to assist there - the windows can be a problem on older zeds - normally the carbon brushes need looking at - there are a few guides on the forum - have a search wasn't aware this was same on a 370z. Aerial - get one from a trader on the site and listen to iPod in the mean time Display - try the left cluster - hold it in on the temp Don't think I have ever seen anyone ask is there a way to reduce power on a Z !! we normally all go the other way. I would not have thought fuel consumption is an issue given your current location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell it and buy a Micra. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Welcome! You can change from Fahrenheit to Celcius in the settings menu on the cluster. The Engine must be off to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Lynx Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 How do you snap an aerial off of a 370? I've never even seen an aerial on mine (maybe it's been missing all this time) And, welcome to the forum 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnymonno Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I'm sure there's enough room in the engine bay to exchange the 3.7 lump for a 1.0L Micra engine Welcome to the forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
