Dude, that's awful. Idiots. Keep at er.

That's fvcked up bro. In regards to HVAC. There is a temp sensor under driver dash. If unplugged it ***** up HVAC like you've saying. Its behind the little oval with a tiger stripe grate

Honestly just run searches on here. Find the answers. Avoid the stealership. You really want some zit-faced millenial trisexual trying to fix your ride with a flathead screwdriver and a cannabis-infused vape pen?

The customer service in service was actually excellent, the issue was with the tech. Reassembly was so sloppy. He scratched up the top of steering wheel, damaged the leather on my shift knob from use of pliers (was like new), hvac sensor left unplugged, removed my CD from head unit and was never returned.

They stepped up to the plate, and had the scratches fixed, ordered me a new factory shift knob, a free loaner for the day, and didn’t charge me for the unsure diagnosis. I didn’t want to return for the hvac, I pulled the panel and reconnected myself, thanks to forum for that info. I’ll take the CD as a loss.

The tech is now saying the S-Mode switch is faulty, it’s brand new though, what are the chances? Not even sure he believes this.

Why didn't they just replace it?

I'm just going to pick up my Z, they can't figure out the issue, I'm sure it's sitting on the sidelines anyhow.

Sorry to hear about your recent luck mate, that sucks! I've worked at quite a few dealerships in my younger millennial years (lol!) as a detailer and I've seen quite a lot of shadiness. I'm thankful that today im mechanically inclined enough to do 95% off the work on my own. Now I'm just lazy sometimes lol.

Have you tried activating S mode with the switch detached from the shift bezel? I'm curious if my solution would work for you. If it works, I'm happy to pull out the bezel and snap a few pics of my washer spacer mod.

That would be truly amazing if it turns out to be a washer.

Did you ever attempt the neutral position relearn?

Because the diagnosis was BS! I literally installed a brand new switch a few days prior to dropping off. They just wanted to get my car out of the bay.

It’s currently at another Nissan dealer, they confirmed it’s not the switch, they believe it’s in wiring. After 1 day, they also haven’t figured out.

I mentioned to first dealer, they apparently don’t appreciate advice from the forum, I got attitude. It’s at another dealer, they believe it’s a wiring issue.

I would’ve tried your advice, but don’t know the process.
