g35 Engine Ping

[vveronika23]

thats fucked dude..

So what was the problem with it? My car makes this exact tick even when revving and driving. It's terrible. I need to fix my G35, but don't want to pay $1000 at the dealership.

maybe put some oil in it... not a ping, this is a con rod as mentioned, its done, a major overhaul..

Caused by overheating, over revving and loss of oil to some areas. Gas Octane level has nothing to do with it at this point.

Dealer will say it s a 4K job give or take...

Sorry

What is it with Nissan and this problem my Maxima had the same noise.

my huffy had that problem. i just turned off 3 of the 17 turbos and shut off 9 cylinders.  sure, reduced power, but still running like 3900 hp...

Wow some people here are stupid. Premium is only RECOMMENDED not required. Also, even if you were using regular grade fuel it would only ping under a load, meaning it's being driven.

That sound is related with the engine components itself. Oil treatments take care of that fine.

sounds like a knock try higher octane?

@sunnyjason congrats, u are officially an idiot :)

[sunnyjason]

@magicn3ss so are you.

That's a worn connecting rod bearing. Just use 10w30 Redline or Royal Purple group 5 synthetic oil and the knocking sound will decrease immensely.
