0 Pericles Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 You can also try Zackie at Tuned-i-chips and Nadeera. The steering being tight doesn't sound like an ECU issue tho. Have you serviced the car recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx in advance. the ECU kinda should be one of the last ones to check on this issue afaik... power steering being tight is another issue IMHO... that can be anything from rack bushes wearing out to a steering pump and related components developing an issue like others have said...proper tune up should address most other concerns about engine not running smoothly...

Best is to check with a fault code reader and troubleshoot accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Devinda_Z Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Take it to A*W on Union Place - they're open half day on Saturday as well They'll connect it to the nissan "Consult" and let u know if there is a fault of any sort - diagnostics cost Rs. 1000 or 2000 - no more. worth it rather than running from here to there trying to "figure out" whats wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
