E51 STEERING COLUMN PLAY AND RATTLE

If you get play at the steering wheel and a light knocking when turning the steering wheel it could be that this bonded joint on the lower column has broken away causing the metal limit piece shown to tap on the joint. This part is seen from under the car above the starter motor.

E51 AIR CON PRESSURE LEAKING AWAY

If you have had your Aircon recharged and its not keeping cool 9 times out of 10 it will be due to a leak due to corrosion in the duel flow alloy aircon pipe where it gets to the rear. These pipes are very expensive from Nissan Japan so we developed this blanking plate to seal off the rear aircon so the front can be used on its own..

E51  KNOCKING AT REAR OVER BAD ROAD

If you get a knock from the rear over bad roads and the yellow strobe slow down bars coming up to traffic islands then you may have weak rear subframe front mounting bushes as the subframe bounces the outer case of the bush flexes downwards and knocks on the lower retaining washer. We produce Polly support washers that fit at point X and isolates the parts stopping the knock. They can be used as a preventative measure to stiffen up the flex in the bushes even when the bushes are new.
