Our '05 R51 threw a U1000 code.

Are there any drivability problems associated with this code? Can the code be a fluke with no actual problem? I read the service bulletin (NTB06-009a) but didn't see any mention of performance issues. Can there be any in our future? Had the code read at a local auto parts store, cancelled the code b...

I am just so much of a perfect maintenance kind of guy... And I just saw a vid of a engine ruined by lack of oil changes... :( I am thinking of buying a couple quarts at the gas station draining the oil just a bit and refilling those up top. That should freshen the oil considerably.. dont have any ...

I still vote battery post clamp. I replaced mine with a generic one from Autozone. Have never had this issue return since. There are times when the seemingly complex problems are caused by the most basic of things. That's a really nice way of saying "In some places, they used some crap designs...

Have you found the problem?

Ok started car up after having it sit for over 24 hours... started up like a champ three times in a row. Like I said, so random. If it was a fuel pump issue, would it be happening nearly every time and are there any tell-tale signs? Btw, is it completely normal to quickly smell a very noticeable ga...

When you say "nothing would happen", do you mean that the starter motor wasn't activated at all, or that the starter motor would spin the engine but the engine would not "fire up"?

I've haven't used Sli-Glyde, but I have used Nissan Silicone Grease, which was a paste-like consistency. It worked great for the caliper slide pins! A couple of things about the slide pins..

If you want to take it a step further, you can remove the pads and coat the contact surfaces of the abutment clips and the metal shims on the back of the pads with a thin layer of copper-slip or brake-specific grease and re-assemble. While apart, the brake caliper slide pins should also be checked ...
