Starting Car Issue

xxgary81xx · 04-21-2016, 12:54 AM

I went to the dealership today with the video and they still did nothing. They offered to test drive the car for the day. They wont do anything until a cel comes on or the car breaks down. I also,asked them to check the TB for dirt and they wouldn't. I guess at this point I'm going to try and find a mechanic to do it since I am not the best with hands on projects. Such a shitty feeling having a nice car with such a bs problem. They think your crazy at nissan!

I agree.. Also i see that you live fairly close to me, if you would want to meet up one day and tackle this down together? I'm not the biggest hands on guy either but i do know how to clean the TB out and have the materials to do so

If anyone is having this issue, I had a buddy of mine clean my throttle body which was dirty two weeks ago and so far so good. Been running a lot of errand turning the car on and off and so far no issues.

If it's a 6MT, it's worth checking the clutch pedal bracket. There's 2 sensors down there, the clutch-in sensor (blue one) may be broken. It's about $20 from the dealership and is an easy fix.

My Z is an automatic, this may others with the issue
