pyrrhus17 · 08-17-2011, 07:02 PM

hey guys I just wanted to know if anybody has a list of all the common problems and there fixes with the 370z ? break fail ,fuel pump cuts on right hand turns ,oil temps , gas pedal delay . anyboby know of any other?

I wanted a compiled list (in one place listing all the most common one) for those of us who dont know and also for those who might want to track their car. If you track your 370z some or most of these will happen . Had I know I might not have bought one !

in place while your filling up snapped off.

You can buy my car. It struggles to get up the RPM after every corner, not just at the traffic light. And best of all, there is no fix as of yet. yay!

Red where did you get your ecu retuned?

smickey · 08-17-2011, 11:09 PM

I have gas pedal delay and slugish around corners as well..

tjlazer · 08-17-2011, 11:41 PM

oil cooler and VDC off should fix the gas pedal delay issue.

The biggest problem with the Z is hot chix wanna ride in your car in groups of 3, but there is only have one seat. Second problem is, being married and hot chix still wanna ride in the Z. Another problem is, coming out of stores and restaurants, you might find droolers and gawkers around your ride???
Other issues or symptoms of Z ownership may be may be muscle car drivers envying your cars uniqueness, which may cause them to spew rants of v8 superiority. Hateration from germaphilles. and finally your biggest problem will be keeping your azz out the drivers seat. The Z is way too addicting. That cockpit design just makes you feel like you're flying a fighter jet. After a little bit you begin to believe it is and you will want to make the car fly
