Engine Ping on 91 Octane

Rocketman · 11-15-2009, 05:54 PM

Well, this Saturdays appointment was a bust. Drove the car down to the dealership that I bought the car from just to be told by the service manager that they are unable to run diagnostics on the weekend due to the tech support line only being available mon-fri. This would have been nice to have been told when I set up the diagnostics appointment with him in the first place. I walked out pissed and drove directly over to another nissan dealership here in phoenix. The service manager there was very helpful (considering I walked in without an appointment) and had one of his GTR techs go over the car. Unfortunately they were not able to do a full diagnostics check for the same reason as dealer #1 however they did plug into the computer and run some checks. All sensors are functioning normally and the car apparently is not running lean. I set up another appointment for this Friday to have them do a more thorough run-down. I will let you guys know how it goes.
