Hello all,
First post! I'd love for it to be under better circumstances, but whatever.
The Z has been idling a little rough lately, with the RPMs dropping below 500 occasionally when i depress the clutch. This morning I was driving on the highway, and had to stop at a red light, so I pushed the clutch pedal down and the car stalled. I caulked it up to still being half asleep and maybe pulling the car out of gear a little to quick (not that this would stall the car).
On my way home, there was an accident and the highway was backed up for quite a while. The car was idling for a good 30 min when it started to bog down. RPMs were going from 1000 to 400 - back and forth. It sounded like the radiator fan was attempting to turn on, but it couldn't... then like clockwork - "Service engine soon".
Oil temp was around 195 - 200 when this happened. Car has 5,000 miles on it. Let me know if more info is needed.
Just dropped it at Nissan - anxious for the verdict.
Any ideas??? Man, this sucks
