*** update # who cares...***

Nissan agreed that 30psi was too low and recommends replacing the fuel pressure regulator.

...can't seem to find them for sale anywhere.

From dream car to nightmare.

Maybe this is the part they are referring to? Seems to come up a lot when you search for fuel pressure regulator.

Edit: looks like the fuel pressure regulator is built into the fuel pump assembly so i guess time for a new fuel pump?

Thanks Z_ealot - Yeah this is just a pulse damper (they help regulate the pressure at the rails) there should be 2 of them and they are right in the engine bay one is seen easily near the left intake. They are cheap and I might replace just to see if it helps, but as far as nissan dealer is concerned they said im getting 30psi, which would point more to the pump/basket/regulator/lines as far as I know. . . THis issue is driving me nuts and obv Nissan is only shooting answers in the dark - feel like they cant really diagnose it correctly.

Sounds like great logic to me.

Personally, I wouldn't take the dealership's word for it (unless they were going to fix it under warranty). I'd check the fuel pressure myself or get a 3rd party to do it.
