The Nissan Path

So problem "simple" used nissan at morning,lunch time had no problems ran like always done, started up quickly everything, helped m8 out at my garage fixed hes audi, time to go home hopped onto nissan..... wont start crank how much you want nothing, well took my autel out lets scan for codes..


those codes were only present nothing more, turbo cooler thing ive seen before also but it probs has nothing to do with my starting procedure, well first thoughts clogged fuel filter or more likely crankshaft sensor.

Obv i managed to get it run for a few seconds first time after long long cranking, then it ran ruff misfired.... then second time after another long as hell cranking it woke up, were ruff at start then started purring like a kitten, pressed throttle everything seems to be normal, drove it like 5m to shut garage doors, jumped back in and died again.... scanned again maybe poped up something? nothing.

We don't have DCI's here in the 'States for me to offer detailed help, but that sounds very much like a bad cam or crank sensor in a gasser. Hall sensors don't usually flatline immediately when they begin to fail. Instead they "lie" to the ECM and cause come-and-go issues, which don't result in P0335's or P0340's because the sensor still works, just incorrectly. Eventually they do flatline and then the MIL lights up, but that can take awhile. So if your DCI has Hall-type (3-wire) sensors on the crank or cams or both, I'd suspect those first.

As suspected, crankshaft sensor, new stuff arrived changed it out, since i bought new fuel filters also i decided to change them anyway, but problem sat on crankshaft sensor i started car first up while old filter attached.







Video about sensor aswell since i couldnt find anything about it anyway from yt.

Looks like VCStars suspicions were correct.

Well had similar situation on my 5 litre benz + had kinda similar ones on other gasoline ones, but diesel its first time for me. Mostly pissed me out that i ordered new sensor at saturday , arrived yesterday.... If i order stuff from germany thru ebay or something like that those things literally come 3 days to my home from my own country and takes so much time.
