What did you do to your N today ?

Great that you can do it on your own, eh. Taking this car to a dealer in northern Australia is like playing Russian roulette with five of the six chambers loaded. Almost inevitable you'll end up with a hole in the head.

How come you cannot flash map updates yourself in AU ?
 
Disconnected the PNT* and cable-tied up the wiring so it doesn't rattle about.

I decided to do it without fully removing the scuttle plate, and ended up with skinned knuckles..... 😬

*PNT = Pointless Noise Thingy, a.k.a. the Electronic Sound Generator

Surely that is abit over kill?
He had an alternative theory about the correct run-in process which he explained in great detail, and posted videos of the trip home after he first picked it up. Those first 13km were quite brutal by other people's standards...
 
Sooooooo, I'm another victim of the UK roads. God damn pothole. Just over a crest of a 60mph road. Didn't see it at all until it was to late. Went with such force my dash cam automatically saved the recoding from the G shock sensor.
Claim with council has been started. In the mean time 2 new tyres needed. Luckily I can't see any damage to the wheel but will have the guys check properly when tyre comes off.
Then in for alignment checking and front offside suspension and bushes for a once over whilst it's there.
Tyres only have 2200 mile on them 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. Could be worse I suppose. As always comes at the wrong time haha.

I just installed the K&N E-0642 intake air filter, I guess that will not void my warranty and I still have the same performance, but in my mind is better so that it 😁😁.

Glad you didn't get the rim and you're alright as well. I know the road fairly well in the UK and they aren't forgiving if you have to leave them abruptly. :) 👍
