Multiple Cylinder Misfire P0300

Genosphere · 03-04-2019, 03:52 PM

Soo, an update...

Took a closer look at the vvt solenoid at the front an noticed some leakage and build up. So decided to pull it; well Its ****** that's for sure. Now I don't know if it was all my doing or already cracked or what ever causing the build in the pic, but never the less it's going to need replaced.

I saw some online, the vvt solenoid, $30~ $140, Nissan dealership wants $300. Any idea if Gates is a reliable part source?

Edit

So talked to my buddies at the local shop and they said they just had the same code on another and replaced the solenoid and that fixed it. So fingers crossed that its this.

As far as most electronic parts on our Z’s I always recommend installing the Genuine Nissan OEM parts as they work best on Nissan/Infiniti vehicles. It’s your car you can try it if you want. The VVT solenoid is very important if you find that it is faulty or has build up and/or blockage in it definitely replace it.
