hey guys i got my exhaust done by chipit and they have removed the heat guard from the factory CAT? do you think the CAT needs the heat guard? they see to think its not required

Hey guys, I have unplugged everything, have no anti rust device and can not think of anything else that could be drawing power i disconnected everything i have installed and still have the problem, its doing my head in. might have to book into Nissan and see what they can find whats the bet they...

Has anybody had this problem? what relay did you find was stuck on mate? my battery keeps going flat within a few days and i work fifo so every time i come back from work i have a flat battery? any help would be good.

This was also my understanding as well, don't know anything about the V6 tho, just be safe and stay away from the auto and you will be fine, i have a auto and would much rather a manual, hence the reason the auto is for sale.

the manuals don't have a 02 sensor in your exhaust system telling your ECU that the cat is no longer in the system so they don't have any problems.

Personally i don't think its to do with the cat, if you remove the cat the oxygen sensor detects that something has changed and the ECU adds more fuel to try and and correct the problem. But if the DPF is no longer in the system the extra fuel has no where to complete a burn and comes out your...

That's strange Bosshog i was talking to Justin and he said that they where looking at some sort of diagnostics instrument that was very expensive from the UK and he seem to think that it might be able to do the job if they get one he wanted to get one and have a demo with it to see if its would...

Does this happen with the manuals as well tony?

I don't think it has anything to do with the CAT i might but i have removed mine and it still uses the same amount o fuel as it did with the cat in, i think that the DPF model has a richer tune or map it runs to help condition the DPF, in saying that tho you do save fuel by removing the DPF just...

Have you blocked your EGR? Give that a go.

I'v had warranty work done on mine with the DPF delete in, even complained about fuel economy and got the injectors replaced under warrenty with it in, didn't make and differance to fuel economy tho. :(

Mate talk about the DPF been a pain in the ass, I think the best thing you can do is get a DPF sent from Chipit and put it in drive the car around for +100km a ECU reset does not get you out of limp mode when the DPF is involved (trust me I have been through all this) it's not like the other...

Speak to Justin at chipit mate they will sort it out for you.

I did have a look mate but i couldn't find anything on the d40 seems to be all the d22 lads with the chipit chips. Bosshog you wouldn't mind forwarding on that email would you?

Hey guys, Just got a Chipit chip and was wondering what tune people are using and why? I'm currently on tune 4 which i was told is the average tune seems to make the vehicle heaps better to drive town havn't done a economy check yet tho.
