Can a Nissan ECM be reprogrammed? ie… A module is taken out of a scrapped Maxima, eBay etc..??
I know Delphi produces an abhorrent amount of ECMs for various manu’s, some are closed firmware some aren’t.
Just asking for Riley’s sake. He could cut that price down enormously if it’s possible.

[quote=”barneyb” post=87930]Well, there is the dealer.[/quote]
That’s true..I usually don’t include or recommend dealer parts because they have an outrageous markup.
Not to mention in a rebuild situation, this part may have been deemed faulty and a new revision could have been created.You never know though. Worth a shot.
Bring in the components and find an old tech if any still exist.[quote=”barneyb” post=87930]Well, there is the dealer.[/quote]

The outside of a tire is considered the shoulders on both sides of a tire. The inside is considered the tread area only. That mixed me up, since he obviously meant the inside-inside.
But an overinflated /under inflated tire can certainly cause uneven tire wear.
Not in this instance since only one side has wear.Anyway, you are correct collegeman

You may have them way over inflated as well.
Just as a suggestion, never use the tire pressure listed on the tire. There is usually a sticker on the inside of the drivers door panel, or on the driver door frame.
That’s the manufacturers stated pressure.You may have them way over inflated as well.

If the kit doesn’t match up, then obviously it won’t work.You may try a Delphi catalog, or a scrap yard.
Other than that you’ll be looking at a new compressor.
Those are your only real options unfortunately.Ahh I misunderstood what your question was.

Now as far as quality goes, that will depend on your budget.

Hope this helps.If you have an OHV series engine, your fuel pressure should be 35 psi min. with key on engine off.
If you have the SOHC engine series your fuel pressure should be 64 psi min. key on engine off.
Sounds like a fuel pump failure, or a clogged line.

[quote=”EricTheCarGuy” post=87567]I’ve actually seen this a few times. The main cause is lack of brake service. Honda uses some pretty crappy rear calipers in my opinion and if you don’t get in there and service them about ever 30K or so they start to hang up. Once they do they make more heat. More heat = more wear on the brake parts and more metal fatigue for the rotors. It’s also quite common for the rear pads to rust into place inside the caliper. I normally deal with this by grinding the pad bosses down a little so that they move freely inside the caliper. This mostly happens on the inside pad BTW.
So, don’t worry, I’ve seen it before and it’s not unusual. I would however advise regular brake service and quality brake pads to avoid the issue in the future.

That’s rather interesting and good to hear.. Something I’ll keep a note of when I service Honda’s.
On a side note I too have made a habit of using a griding wheel to grind down the ears on front pads whenever I deal with Lexus/ Toyota, as they have a tendency to stick over time as well.
Good tip, thanks Eric.
