Do you have any mods on your car? I'm running EcuTek, though I have not had issues with it until now. I also just got my calipers rebuilt, but again, I had those inspected after the incident.

K&N Typhoon intakes.

Turned out it was my front right wheel bearing that was in need of replacement. You might want to check your's to see if it's the same issue.

I had this happen once and it was the c clip on the axle stub letting it pop in and out over bumps enough that the sensor was going nuts. $1.80 for a new c clip later and it was gone. wheel bearings and brake fluid levels do it too.

how did you figure that out?

I caught it at just he right time. It would happen to me when i gave it power in a turn over a bump so i did that in a parking lot and as soon as it came on i stopped the car and got out and checked and i had to push the drivers side stub flange back in about 1\8 inch til it clicked in. Replaced the snap ring and it hasnt popped out since.

I forgot another thing that can do this is getting an alignment done or taking the steering wheel off and not reseting the 0 position on the steering angle sensor.

OK. thanks. i will check those things.

Awesome! I noticed when we changed the hub on mine that there was a difference between my old 2009 hub and the new part from Nissan. The new hubs appear to be sealed on the inside, probably to keep out dirt and debris. I plan to change the others out as preventative maintenance.

This happened to me as well. It's been doing it more often during hard acceleration.

Top off brake fluid slightly past max level

Zrider79 02-19-2017 05:31 PM

Ok I'll test it out.

finally, this thing was annoying as hell, the red exclamation and slip light going on solid until i restart and it happens every time, it makes me paranoid..

sorry for the newb question but should i check the brake level when the car is off or on? and you said to top it off, but the other 2 guys on the first page of this thread said dont top it off bc when you do a brake change, it will overflow and make a mess?

which brake fluid do we use and whats it called? im just going to buy it from the nissan dealership

Doesn't matter if the car is off or on when checking brake fluid.
Use a DOT 3/4 compatible brake fluid. Doesn't matter what brand. I use Valvoline Synthetic and have no issues.
Don't worry about fluid overflow until you change brake pads and then you can use a syringe to suck some out.
