[Kevin Lee]

[seizai]

part2... still looking housing for it

 

[Kevertz]

near to the driver seat. you see a small vent. that is where it sense the temperatue, than got a Infra red or was it heat detector on the front dash board.

Bros weikee, My A32 3.0 also facing the same problem a/c compressor dont cut off also went i put into 32c. Some ac mechanic told me my A32 ac intake sensor missing?

 

[weikee]

If it missing you need to get the replacement from chop shop or new unit.

hey i recently lowered my a33 cefiro and the cv joint keep making noise even when i drive straight i realy dont want to raise it cuz it looks really kewl...is there anything i can do to the axle or even buy something to combat this problem....p.s i changed like about 3 pairs of new joints already...problem still persists

Hi Wuss,
Wish to know you lowered by change to adjustable or just sport spring ?
Thinking to change absorber, but couldn't make decission to go original absorber + Sport spring or Adjustable Absorber.
I travel a lot with this car in town & sometime with family member too.
Existing was too soft, wonder is Absorber gone or original setting was soft like this.

 

[wuss]

no it isnt...i have ona set of d2's in the front and once u drop it a certain height it makes the cv joint go bad...i really dont knw how to solve the problem...one guy told me he does something to the axle that makes u drop as low as u want,,,buh i want confermation...it really is frustrating,...i cant lower my car the height i want it cuz the cv joint keeps gettin ruined...

Hi Wuss,
Ic, I heard a lot of complaint once lowered down to much. Wonder becos of VQ engine weight & wide car body.
But the way, how much you low down ?
I still keep at original setting, but i happen travel at Karak highway chase a BMW 5 series, can chase him close, but when reach uneven road like Karak Highway design, alamak my car look like can't handle & can't make the car slide left to right side or Right to left.
Suspect absorber gone liao !!

Go for height adjustable units , then lower it down to the limit before it stresses your cv joints . Another option is to get huge rims with higher profile tires so you don't have to lower the car and it will look stunning !.

 

[wuss]

hey SB3
i have on 20's right now and adjustable d2 shocka dn soring coilovers....but the car once lowered to the tired height or even a little higher still causes the joints to fail...i dnt knw if the symetry of the vehicle is off but i see a lot of these lowered very low all over the net i was wondering if there is a shorter axle or better bigger cv joint ppl use...

My A33 a/c compressor also never cut. TCESC told me A33 was built that way. It cuts when u floor the accelerator. Can anyone confirm this?

 

[weikee]

Most Nissan ecu will cut the A/C compressor when you rev the engine and also when is overheat, this is to protect the a/c compressor when engine is revving high, and give more cooling capacity to the radiator / engine when overheat detected.

It will cut in climate control but not so frequent. Climate control a/c system use hot air "from radiator water" mix with cold air "from A/C cooling coil" to control / reach the temperate driver set. Is difference from the normal A/C in the car, where you feel a sudden cold then not cold then cold again.

I heard there are new type of climate control system, but did not really go into detail which car have it or how it work.

 

[doraemon98]

Ya the a/c compressor never cut even put it to 32C unless depress the a/c button on the control.

I never do any service on the a/c system for the past 7 years. Is it necessary to do any preventive maintenance on it?

 

[weikee]

It actually will cut, just you don't notice cause is a rotary pump.

I do a/c cleaning / service every 2 years. If A33 come with filter in the blower than the maintenance can be later.

BTW, i go KL -> Ipoh -> Penang -> Ipoh -> KL, total mileage around 800km+, only use around 80 Liter petrol. I can go better if i did not speed to 140 / 150km/h

I can notice if the pump cut because I can feels it vibrate a little on the steering. I cannot feel any vibration on steering with the a/c off. Of course with the car idle.

I never experience the a/c pump cut on a traffic jam even at night nor set it to 32C with only hot air blowing.

Your a32 fc is very good. The most I got is 9.5l/100km on mostly highway at 110km/hr speed. Notice shell ron95 can go further compare to esso.
