Hello guys, where can I get high intensity display (HID) fog lights for my FX 35 and the cost?
Also where can I get the vehicle scanner for vehicle diagnostics of a 2006 FX 35 (AWD). I need it as a personal toolkit. My low tire warning light has been showing on the dash board for sometime now even after inflating all the tires. On the display, the tire pressure is indicated as 49, 47, **, and 42. Don't knw why the ** is showing for one of the tires. The manual recommends 32 psi but most vulcanizers I have used say they usually inflate the tire to 60 for jeeps. Their guages doesn't have a unit so to be on the safe side I stick with 45. What is the required specification on the local vulcanizer scale for FX 35?

The last time I checked from 2003 till date, infiniti came with HID as standard package.
You can get even a generic scanner like Autel maxiscan. Your TPM sensor on that tyre is bad hence its showing ** but take out excess pressure from the remaining tyres till they are in agreement with your car's spec.

The fog light is the convention type while the head lamp is HID. I want to fix HID in the fog lamp.

Please DON'T ever try that. You'll end up confusing and blinding oncoming drivers with bright glares which can result in a crash because it won't have a cut off. Besides, HIDs works best in Low beams and halogens shines further off. Car makers intentionally use that spec because they know what they're doing.

You guys should rename this thread the fx series thread.Iv got a 98 Q30 and a 2008 G37.The Q30 is my daily workhorse but the g37 is my highway car.Sourcing parts for my g37 has been a hellish experience but I believe it's worth every drop of sweat.@nissparts,I will be in touch shortly

*** means one the sensors has an issue. Make sure that on your first start up in the day you don't exceed 35psi; or that after some period of driving you don't exceed 40psi. 42psi may just be tolerable after a period of driving, not at start up; 47psi and 49psi are downright dangerous.

In addition, those conflicting PSI Values for the various tyres don't do good to the transmission, differential and fuel economy. OP, your tyres should be same make, same threadings, same spec and should have same air pressure value all round.

Thanks guys. It means I have to get my own portable tire pump and pump the tire to the recommended tire pressure

You could start with a tire gauge to adjust accordingly after seeing your vulcanizer. When necessary, I visit the vulcanizer closest to my house just as I'm retiring for the day. I tell him to gauge the tires to "his" 40psi. No cause for alarm the car is heading for home less than a kilometre away. Then the following morning I use my digital gauge to adjust the pressure to my preference.

I think I need to get myself a digital gauge. I spent ten minutes arguing with a vulcanizer over why my 17" tires should not be inflated to 45psi.

Hi house, I've been using my nissan primera p11-144 for over a year now, recently changed my driveshaft, and this triggered my abs light to come on, the mech told me dis as a result of d fact dat d driveshaft purchased doesnt have an abs ring, but he assured me that this wont constitute any problem to my braking system, also the check engine light came up when I changed it, hope my mechanic is right tho
Re: Official Nissan & Infiniti Thread by pragmatistm(m): 3:07am On Oct 11, 2014
I recently changed the flywhweel and torgue
converter of my nissan primera P11-144 car. Its year 2000 wagon and engine size is
2.0. CVT transmission. But the mechanic
ignorantly and forcefully cut out the two wires
on the connector on dropping resistor on the
transmission when he separated engine from
transmission during the repair work. The
connector got stuck together and we had to
remove the connector and join the wires only.


I actually ran a scan before the
connector wires were reconnected and got
P0745. That time the car was driving with a lot of
difficulties and the "sport" mode was unusually
flashing on the dashboard. The part number of the dropping resistor is
31037-8E002. But the connector that was
conmected to a metal on the resistor was
eventually removed before we could reconnect
the wires back. After the wires were connected
the car drives better, the "sport" mode
flashing stopped and the code went away. The
only issue left is that the CVT is not selecting properly again. No
codes left after I re-scanned it. The car now drives without selecting the gears.
Engine revs at 2200RPM for car speed of
60/70km/h as against 1800RPM for car speed
of 90/100km/h before we did the flywheel/
converter replacement. I have drained the transmission oil two
times and cleaned the magnetic filters and
refill but there still no improvement. The
transmission oil is still light red and clean for I
changed around six months ago and the car
has covered less than 1500km. Please what can I check again?

Which part of the gear box area? Take a picture and lemme see it so we know how to handle such. Meanwhile don't drive that motor so as not to crash the gearbox.

Re: Official Nissan & Infiniti Thread by Nobody: 1:20pm On Oct 12, 2014
That area is looking as if its around the fuel tank area. I don't know which area is that is it towards the engine or the back of the truck?
Re: Official Nissan & Infiniti Thread by king406(m): 1:27pm On Oct 12, 2014
Lomomike, I had a shortage of the transmission fluid (don't know if it was leaking at that time) which made the gearbox struggle before it changes into fourth gear especially on high speed. So I complained the issue to my mechanic and he suggested that we should top up the fluid, I agreed. He bought 1liter of dexron iii ATF from oando and topped it up (used all of it). This happened four days ago, I travelled to kaduna on friday with the car and the gearbox was shifting smoothly and perfectly. So yesterday I floored the car to see how quick the gearbox shifts at high RPM, it worked perfectly until It got to 3rd gear (throttle still on floor) the rpm got to 5600 in 3rd gear @ 150kmph but refused to shift to 4th gear, the car jerked at that moment, rpm went down quickly asif the car was no longer in gear. But when I marched the throttle gently the car shifted to 4th gear nicely. So When I got home I decided to check under the car to see if something was wrong. The leak was what I found under the car, I just hope this is a minor issue. Thanks

it is a 2002 nissan altima, 2.5L, 4cyl and the VIN is 1N4AL11E22C124371.

please can anyone help me get the ECU part number?

thanks and God bless you all

Good day all,
I have picked interest in Nissan products especially the Qashqai +2. Nissan motors in Nigeria are currently being sold by Stallion Nissan Nigeria Ltd. Now, I wish to know if the Nissan cars they sell are directly made in/imported from Japan, Europe or Nissan South Africa? I would imagine a direct Japanese production would be of higher quality/spec or grade? Would also appreciate any comment on these Nissan brand new cars especially the Qashqai relative to say its equivalent among the Koreans or all these South African Toyotas/Hondas.
Re: Official Nissan & Infiniti Thread by nissparts(m): 6:09pm On Oct 21, 2014
Most likely Japanese but in any case it is a much higher grade than the US spec Nissans

I had a bad electrical parts day Monday evening. I wanted to scan my Nissan Maxima and discovered that the OBD2 port was not being powered. I also discovered the security light was off and the outside thermometer gauge was fluctuating. With the light off,the car could start but would not move except you manually disable the shift lock. I quickly checked the service manual to find out the responsible fuse and discovered it was blown. I replaced the fuse,all systems good to go and after two minutes,the fuse gave up. This happened with three more fuses getting blown on a car which was in the OFF position.

I did my best to look for any grounding problem and couldn't find anything so I decided to get a rewire. The guy noticed I was monitoring him to learn where the fault came from and succeeded in throwing me on a wild goose chase before fixing the fault. Even when I asked him what he did,all he said was "Oga,don't remove food from my table na".

Sorry I'm no parts vendor. A tokunbo remains your easiest option if only you could find one from the same car model, i.e. 2000-2004 model years.

@NISSPARTS... I was the one that called you earlier today asking you about fx35 shocks....

Anyways, I just picked an fx35 and I would like to go ahead with first servicing the car so I need the best recommended oil for servicing and also filter.... I also will have my mechanic check it out tomorrow cos the two front wheels are making some funny noise and will like to have useful advise on how to proceed with this ride and enjoy it the perfect way...

Gracias!
