yesterday i was driving and my check engine light came on and i took it to a shop and they said i had a DTS code, forgot what they said, but i thought nothing of it bc they said it wasnt huge, but i stopped their b/c it was close to me, last night, my car started studdering when i would give it gas, and shaking, and i JUST got the kit installed what is wrong with my car, the check engine light has never flashed, i parked my car and will not drive it, this sux im gonna have to take it to the shop on monday, i just got this kit and im already having problems i would assume i had it installed wrong, japtrix did it though and it seemed like they knew what they were doing, so hopefully on monday they can fix it, i hope its not serious, i love everything bout this kit but i just got it 2 days ago.

 

I saw this and I mentioned to Roger so he should give you a call.

 

lol roger just called me hes like what problems are you having lol, i was like this guy is a god and can read minds lol, thanx westpak, im gonna just tow the car on monday early to them, i hope nothing happened to my car, i hope something just disconnected but thats all i can hope for

 

Out of gas??

 

Glad to help. Unfortunately DTC covers all of the codes so unless they gave you a specific number not much to go by. It could be the reflash, I am sure Roger will figure it out. Good Luck.

 

sounds like detonation

 

get an OBDII reader.
Sounds like a misfire. Maybe you have blown a coil somehow.

 

Could also be a vacuum leak somewhere in the tract.

 

its not gas, lol got a full tank but the car when it gets warm starts to make a slight clanking noise, and if you give it gas it would basically just studder more and more as you go faster, but i hope its not something serious b/c i am really getting sick of this car, cant handle crap, i blew my motor n/a and its a problem one after the other.

 

How did you blow the motor N/A???

 

Wait a minute.. i remember your thread from a long ago. Did Nissan get you a new motor?

 

O man thats bad i saw your car on thursday at the hangouts it was running perfect. Hope you the best good luck

 

yea im the one that had blown the motor n/a and they couldnt find out what it was or didnt want to admit to something on the car from nissan screwed it, but yea i won the case and got a whole new motor from nissan with my lawyers help of course. but the reason i got a turbo kit is b/c the motor was all new and you know i wasnt afraid to turbo with a nice new strong motor, and yea it was running great and all of the sudden the car throws a check engine light and it starts flashing half way to my house and the car is spuddering and basically wont go anywhere and then it idles with a noise to it, this car is an amazing headache

 

my car is shaking when im idling so everyone knows, dont know what this could be though??

 

Do you have a boost gauge? If so what is the vacuum showing?

 

its like at 0.8 i think at idle, i dont think its vacuum dont be honest with you, but im not all knowing here so yea

 

Hmmm what measure is your vacuum. You should have 20hg of vacuum at idle.

 

That flashing CEL could be a blown coil pack. Does the car sounds like its running a les than 6 cylinders? No loud banging noise...right...just roughness?

 

well the wonderful awesome mechanic roger at japtrix found my problem, cylinder #2 wasnt firing, b/c like some wire connector that connects to it came loose and he reconnected it and he says its running nice and hard, what i like to hear, on friday my Full titanium jic catback comes in, i was not excited but now i am b/c my car is running great and i have an exhaust that weighs like 8lbs lol, cant go wrong gonna be fast. thanx guys for all your help lets hope she runs good for a long while now.

 

Haha that is great to hear, and seems like Sharif hit that nail on the head
