Nairaland is not my home or office. Some of us don't frequent Nairaland that often. I am just seeing these things now. Let me respond according.
1. The last time I had ANY communication with drumma was on Friday.
2. I won't bother to delve into the past so much but you can read what I wrote earlier on
3. The said car have been parked for severally months and a lot of brainbox have been tried prior to me been involved. A lot of hands have worked on that car and it didn't start.
4. My duty was to get the right brainbox for the car. Please refer to my earlier post.
5. The amount agreed for the brainbox was 80,000. An additional 10,000 was for reprogramming and transport to take it to his place in Gbagada.
6.Again refer to my earlier post to know what transpired.
7.On Friday, after the car has started and the nozzle issue was discovered, he said he was not going to pay until everything is working well. I told him it was outside our scope. We have done our part. I texted my man on ground there to bring back the brainbox. I was surprised to know they later collected half of the money.
8. On that same Friday before the issue of he will pay or not pay, I sent him to please add 5K to that money as I have spent a lot and get virtually not as I had to foot the bills to his house on four occasions.
9. I swear by my honour that I am just reading about the 15,000 paid to the boys there for service rendered which I am not aware. This money is not to me and I am just reading about it here.
10.drumma has used several derogatory terms on me. He had earlier tarnish my reputation. No problem. My hands are clean. I rest my case.

Do you have a brain box for my fx45?


Check the previous page for details of it.

10,000 was for reprogramming...

Pek, I'd like to be enlightened on this. Can the ecm be programmed outside the car? What exactly is the nature of this programming?

Pls house anything u guys can do 2 help on this.

Oga Costee and Nisspart pls do give us ur expert assessment as usual.

Thanks in advance

Hi house,

I have this Nissan maxima 04. Recently I started noticing some strange things.

1. On most days when I start the car the oil pressure sign on the dashboard will not go off until I engage the gear to drive to move the car.

2. The same oil pressure sign intermittently come on and off esp when I am slowing down, applying brake or when d car motion is not so fast.

I checked the oil level okay.

I scanned the car and got the following codes

P1168, P0340, P0037, P0021 and P1051

The car still drives around but I am afraid the engine might be in danger.

KINDLY help me out on what I can do or what the problem might be.

Thanks in advance.

10,000 was for the reprogramming and transport. Yes, reprogramming can be done outside the car if you have the tools plus you need the VIN.

Do you hear a whining sound when you start the car or accelerating?

By this do you mean to write the VIN into the ecm? What about the key programming?

i did not notice any whining sound .

Good. P0021 and P0340 are somewhat intricately connected. I'd suggest you take care of P0340 for now which is the camshaft sensor bank1. The other code might also be resolved by it. P1168 and P1051 are same for the Air Fuel ratio sensor bank2. P0037 is for your 02 sensor bank1.

The camshaft sensor replacement won't make any difference. Both codes means you have a problem in the timing chain area.
The chains and gasket will need to be changed.
He has intermittent low oil pressure from problems in this area and that's why the light is blinking.
Symptoms will get worse eventually

Hello house, Pls how best can I raise my Nissan primera 1998. It lies low and its bumper and chassis scratches the floor/road so often.
I welcome advices and directives

Yes, it's a timing chain area concern, but as no whine is evident yet I'll suggest the surgical operation of changing the chain mechanism altogether as a last resort. Apart from checking the crank and camshaft sensors, the factory service manual adds a third and final culprit which is "accumulation of debris to the signal pick-up portion of the camshaft." Indeed the manual says in cases of intermittent incidents (as seems to be the case here) it might even be an electrical issue in which case you "check ground terminals for corroding or loose connection."

Once both codes come up together it's an issue you'll have to open up the timing area to resolve.
Whining will occur when the chain stretches.

CODE: U1000 pleaseeee

nissparts:
...it's an issue you'll have to open up the timing area to resolve.

I guess so if you must clear the accumulated debris as the FSM states.

@nissparts please they said my SLIP & VDC OFF LIGHT ARE COMING ON PLEASE WHAT CAN I DO TO THIS ?

@costee.... thanks for your candid response although i don't know what to make of the parsimonous comment as I was thinking spending 110K on a car shouldn't be regarded as not willing to spend money...the part number of the ECM installed:
K6 MEC65-440 01 4X25

I must admit I like your sense of humour. I used parsimony not in the miserly context, but of insufficiency of information.
The ecm installed by Pek, even though it's for FX, is not the one for your vehicle. There are about 16 ecm types (configurations) for FX35 2005. I won't be able to comment further until the appropriate ecm is installed.
You may reach me on 08179381094, however.

Now let's identify the FX for this number:K6 MEC65-440 01 [C1?] 4X25
The last four characters (4X25) represent the production date of the car. In this case it is 2004, October 25.
Nissan ecm part numbers for all FX35 manufactured between August 2004 and November 2005 are as follows:
1. 23710-CL100: 2WD; and the Hitachi number is K3 MEC65-410
2. 23710-CL105: 2WD (tech package); and the Hitachi number is K4 MEC65-420
3. 23710-CL110: 4WD and; the Hitachi number is K5 MEC65-430
4. 23710-CL115: 4WD (tech package); and the Hitachi number is K6 MEC65-440

@drumma I'm sure you can place where the ecm now sitting in your FX belongs. Your guess is as good as mine regarding the extent of its compatibility with your car system. Yours is K3 MEC65-410 C1 5905 (2005, September 5).

Seriously @costee I don't know the kind of prayer i can start pouring on your right now... When PEK came here he was talking about how i used derogatory language on him and put his reputation at stake.... I told his boiz they were only working for the money they wanna collect from me not because they are doing the right thing now its clearly stated here.... for him and his boyz to pick my call and get this resolved now has become an issue they wont talk to me mechanic either.... so its another case of me loosing 110k to some people's wickedness just and he will come and say nairaland is not is shop he doesn't come here everytime.... I won't say much because i deserve a response from him and if @NOBODY likes he can ban my from commenting for another 2 days.... but i won't allow these people destroy another person's car.

Im sure @costee will smile when he sees these... After our short conversation on the phone he called me back to hint me about my slip & vdc off lights that was comong up and directed me to use the break fluid therapy... So i called my mech and told him to put the break oil.

He called back to tell me the light is gone but still needs to watch it.

That was when i remembered i had read about that same issue on infiniti forum and the guy said they billed him $1,800 without using the break fluid therapy first.


Will be seeing you tomorrow as instructed Sir. Before the TSB rounds kick off @nissparts

Note: we are not here to spoil people business but sensitize the public & create awareness so if you think conventions is your method of approach to business why not try and do service oriented approach by giving appropriate opinions pr service as it implies and see where you'll find yourself.. The act of back appprach is coming to an extinction because of #seek&youwillfind #google


@nissparts @costee you will not die young and you will be more blessed than you bless

@osama your car will come back to life in no time

^^^^^^^

That day I go buy one goat to celebrate am.

March 7th till today, still trying to be patient.

Yes, we found out this was a black 4WD FX35 built in October 2004 with VIN: JNRAS08W35X206385

WoW I'm back again and i must say my weekend was the most blessed after my short enounter with a father figure @costee.

I can't be more grateful for your immense assistance with my car on saturday.... all mechanics on nairaland need to consult you before they work on anybody's car....

I drove the car today but i didn't car a chance to hit 160mph as promised yesterday i guess that's never possible again in Lagos but It still drive perfectly and no SES light on my dash board again.


I duff my hat to you Sir......God bless you much.

I'll still on with the plugs as discussed sir

Now I hope I'm not being considered a magician If this is a VIN, it doesn't look like a Nissan to me. Could you confirm vehicle, please.

Sorry, my limits do not go beyond Nissan/Infiniti.

Hello house gurus, though I posted this earlier in the day @nissparts thread on nissan/infiniti parts store, I'm posting here for additional information/resolution of issue.

I have a 2006 Nissan Murano that i bought in 2009 and I observed that the steering wheel was hard to turn at times, I decided to check it out, but on my way to the mechanic the power steering belt cut, when I got to the mechanic he removed the power steering pump and we observed that it was bad, as the pump shaft could not rotate freely by hand, we then bought a toks one and installed in the car with new belt and new fluids. The steering was then back on and was okay till around 2013, after which it went bad again, so we bought another one and changed it again, this one didn't last a year before going bad, then I changed it again this year and for this one, when you start the car for the first time in the day the steering is hard to turn till you run the car for up to say 10 mins before you can turn the steering. Even after driving and you park for long say from morning till evening after close of work, I still have to wait till that 10 mins before the steering will move freely.
Please what could be the cause of this issue.
I need your advice and help here with this issue, I'd like to know if maybe the power steering pump is wrong, that is maybe if there is supposed to be like I read here about vin number-part-number for particular car, if you know what I'm getting at. Please I need your help and advice to solve this problem. Thanks in anticipation.

@nisspart
I av a nissan quest 05 which make sound like when two metals are vibrating against each other (ke ke ke ke) upon fresh start up or after a long rest but fade off after about 1-2 minutes warm up or if I raised it.
I want to believe its not timing chain because it doesn't increase with acceleration.
I changed oil with 4Lts of 5W30, new filters and platinum plugs and two of spark coil(because of misfire 5 and 6).
The engine runs ok now with water coming out during daily first start up except the NOISE and no CEL light.
What can I do to erase/silent the noise.
Thanks
