Default My Z is trying to kill me.

Yes my Z has finally decided to try and kill me.

First problem I have been having, about a couple of months ago the car started giving me the "maintenance: oil" warning. I know why this is happening. I changed out my oil after francorchamps and they forgot to reset the oil timer and that is the same thing they said and told me that they will fix it with my next oil change.

but after a week or two if I go half WOT or WOT this warning light blinks at around 4000-4500 RPM you know the one that looks like (I). most of the time if it happen I just let go of the throttle and it goes away, nissan dealership said its a built in safety for when you should change your engine and if you try to rev too high and that it shouldnt be a problem.

but the worst part is, if I KEEP going with that light on out of nowhere

VDC OFF. for no reason the VDC gets turned off. after going "wait wut?" I try to turn it back on. VDC stays off no matter how many times you press the VDC button. so I went to a parking lot to see if it really is off. car flies all over the place so yeah its off. if I turn the car off and on again VDC is turned back on.

this has happened around 5 times now and it is almost like the Z is trying to kill me for going too fast.

and you all know



Any idea what the hell would cause the car to suddenly disable VDC.

going to make an appointment with the dealership soon and hope they can fix it.
