Hi All, :)

I am in the process of setting this GQ up and I have foung a problem, On the road from Bleheim to Nelson the first hill was ok but when I started climing the second it would not hold the gear it keep changing to a higher gear, When I got over the hill it would not go into overdrive .
When it cooled down everything was ok and back to normal.
I have just had it serviced and was told that the trans was in very good condition, He thinks the past owner had it underwater, "Water in the computer" :(
After the service it was about 80% better.
Question;
1 Were is the computer
2 can it be repaired
3 Approx cost of replacement

Thanks

Graham

Computer is found behind the LH kick panel on the front passenger's side. Get a replacement from a wrecker or TradeMe would be easier than fixing.

I have just had my auto trans serviced and was told that nissan auto's and the computers dont break down and are very relyable , Only water will damage them. They said I should get one for around $100 or I think his words were I would not pay any more,

ME I DON'T KNOW ITS UP TO YOU
