Yep. I hope Nissan decides to delete the SLUs (two screws and a BCM reflash), not replace them.

If they are going to delete them then I for sure will take the time out to bring the car to the dealer. Weight reduction FTW!

EDIT: After looking at daisuke149's post again, I highly doubt they will opt for deleting them. It says clearly REPLACE the units, soo much for weight reduction I guess LOL. Although it would really make sense on Nissans part to just delete the damn things, less money spent and time for Nissan once the replaced units start failing like is bound to happen. Lets think logically here Nissan, come on!

Cheer up. I heard the new unit is 8oz lighter then the old one coz they use less oil on it.
