Bouncy rev needle

[jimboy2]

Had this since I got it and thought I would try and find a solution. From what I can hear and feel it is causing no issues with performance at all.

 

When coming off the gas the rev needle bounces instead of moving smoothly.

 

Any one seen this before? Is it a easy problem to sort out?

 

Cheers

Is it an import?

 

seen something like it on an import - but only on hot sunny days - was something to do with the little circuit board they add behind the dash to change the digital speedo to MPH from KPH

 

not a lot of help but maybe a place to start.

[jimboy2]

No it's not a import. It's a 08 HR does it all the time, doesn't matter if it's rain or shine.

 

It's a very weird one!

You could clean your MAF and do the pedal dance (http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/53148-how-to-ecu-accelerator-pedal-throttle-valve-resets/).

Always did it for me too... Causes no problems at all, but I know it's a little annoying. Hope you still love her

Yeah my 57 HR does it too..

I have the same issue with mine. Just got it several days ago and the rev needle is not that smooth but after talking to the guys on here O decided to wait for a month or two before getting into anything.

Yes + 1 for me too .

 

Does not bother me to much mind .

My rev needle is back where it should be at idle speed and is way less bouncy after a throttle body recalibration. Did you try this? It helped mine...

Is it when it hits the stop at 6500 rpm that it bounces..

[-Bradders-]

Mines always done it i read to clean the throttle body... made no difference lol

Mine bounces at 7500 as I have the far superior HR haha.

 

Not really tried anything to be honest. Is the throttle body calibration a peddle dance?

Jez from Horsham Dev did the peddle dance for me and told me that HR engines will always have some (minimal of course) bounce due to the dual throttle bodies

Thats what AMT said, then he got his HR smashed up the rear end repeatedly by multiple DEs the dirty dog

 

There is multiple pedal dances for different procedures, use the search function

Don't go labelling all HRs as a result of one who has yet to learn to drive Away and play with your soot chucker

I don't dispute AMTs driving abilities are probably lacking however my DE spanked you and my soot chucker would 100% spank you although I might kill myself when I go past someone at break neck speeds making 0 noise and they don't even give it a second look!

Haha it's not other 350z I'm worried about. It's all these skoda's and Astras that I need to be wary of ha
