You'd better delete the mention of street racing before a mod sees it and bans you.

 

thanks scott you have any idea on whats going on with my car?

 

cel?

 

well when i bought the car the guy told me the maf was messed up adn the he was replacing it, supposably he did when i got the smoged done(i live in cali) the dude told me i had a code. turned out to be p0113, turned out the cheking light buld is missing. i tried to erase it with a scanner but did not work. they told me to install the bulb and triy to erase with gas pedal technique but havent installed the bulb. if the maf is messed can that be the culprit of the bogging?

 

A dirty MAF can cause a bog or a hesitation, yes. There is a thread about using CRC MAF sensor cleaner, that should help you out.

 

seafoam also will help

 

My brother in law told me that theres a chance it can be the timing belt is there a chance of the being true

 

try cleaning throttle body and maf sensor

 

ok i think i figuered it out could it be that the traction control is kicking in when it senses the wheels spinning? now my other problem is that when i toogle the traction control control no lights on my dash turn on is there a designated buld that i can replace or is it a solder on l.e.d can this problem be linked to my check engine light not working?

 

Woulda' helped if you mentioned your TC was on during these shenanigans.

But if your dash lights are not working, then you might have a burned dash bulb. Does the TC light "light" up before you start the car in the "ON" position?
It's it press fit, non solder type bulb if sticking w/OEM.

So, a little background, your SES light is out too? What lights actually light up when in the ON position?

 

lol ok all my lights on the dash light up in the on position except the check engine light, the traction light and one that says slip.

 

And your car does have TC, correct?

A light should blink when slip is detected, and also turn constantly on when TC is deactivated.

 

yes i does have traction control and i have toggled the button and managed launch the car withou bogging or anything. but i noticed that lights on the dash dint turn on. i read the manual and it said that ligths on the dash shold l turn on when the buttono is toggle but no dice. probable chance that the led's are burnt because from what ive read they dont have a designated bulb socket

 

Wouldn't that rule the light out if it tests properly when your key is in the "ON" position?

 

im sayign the traction control work mechanicaly lol but the lights on the dashboard dont turn on at all even when the key is on the on position. i want to tear into and chek it out but im kinda of scared to mess somethign up

 

But I thought you said they all turn on except for the SES light?



Pull the ABS fuse and try a hard launch, then report back.

 

My bad lol except the check engine light the slip and traction do not turn on at all

 

 

Here's the link Scott spoke of on cleaning the MAF Sensor

You are supposed to be in "maxima.org the home for maxima enthusiasts" (read above) , and you come up with a timing belt idea ? it should be so smart either from you , or you're brother in law

 

It's definitely the timing belt, I don't know what you're talking about.
