Mine seems to to have sorted itself out, but if plays up again I'll take in. Like you Pip, it only occurred at standstill or low speeds.

Keep me posted!

cheers.

Sounds likely. I took mine to a mechanic who could check fuel pressure and he said it was fine, although I didn't get the resulting figures. It was him who suggested the fuel filter as pressure was good. I think there's a fuel regulator which might be the valve your mech's talking about. Hope you ge...

ahh of course (duh!), I didn't even think of that!! DCi = Direct Common-rail injection right? Thanks for that, I too would have been for looking it!! I did get slightly better idle after replacing the fuel filter element (was full of sludge) but now my idle hunts until the engines' hot and I have to...

Hi, my 05 has a dual climate control for the front cabin. I can set independent temps for driver and passenger. I can then cancel this and make both adjust together as one temp.

So question is, do you have dual temp control? This could explain the issue.

Hello again! I haven't done any resets (yet) but as I also have an idle issue I did look into this a few weeks ago. From what I gather the counting (x) amount of seconds is absolutely crucial. It appears you'll need a stopwatch at hand for the 10 second counts. I recall you were looking to clean the...

I have no idea where it is or even what it looks like! I picked up on your post because I recall someone else cleaning their TB. If you find it, perhaps you might post a pic for info? Yes I too have the 2.5 diesel engine. I recently bought some carb cleaner spray and hoping to get out and give the M...

What's the idle like when the engines hot, i.e. after a 20 min drive? My 05 T-Spec has been giving some awful idle on cold start and will stall if I don't keep the pre-heat switch depressed for at least a couple of miles. Once warmed up it idles perfectly so if you solve your issue please update thi...

You mean 'belt' slip I presume? I did read a post elsewhere that mentioned power steering belt tensioner....not sure where that is though :(

Air Con..if set to 'auto' it'll get to the set temp then either slow down or shut off until the cabin temp falls/rises above the temp you've set it to, then it restarts again to reach the set temp, etc. If set to manual it'll keep pumping out whatever temp you set. That's how it works in my '05 anyw...

Power Steering 'jerky'

Hi all. Last night and again this morning my '05 PF exhibited a weird steering issue for about 30 seconds after starting the engine. Basically whether at standstill or moving slowly the steering became what I can only describe as jerky, i.e. it felt as if the power steering was turning on/off/on/off...

Same here, I've just dug out my spare key and the LED doesn't light upon button press either. Perhaps it's a normal master/spare combination after all!

Try swapping the batteries, just to rule out. If that makes no difference then it sounds to me that the spare needs it's transponder chip re-programmed. Not sure on cost, but I'd guess Nissan would want close to £75 here in the UK. I did a quick Google search about it, and there's a good eBay buyers...
