Re: How to Reset/Reprogram your ECU - Series I & II
Nissan have the OBDII series ECU under a tight key at present and this is the case worldwide as far as we know.
There is one guy here in OZ that specializes in stock Nissan ECU tunes and that's "Dr Drift". He normally tunes Silvias and Skylines, and found my question on tuning an X-Trail quite amusing, hehehe.
He did have bad news for me though in that they don't have the capabilities of tuning our ECU yet. Although did say they will keep an eye out for me and keep me updated if this changes in the future. It is only a matter of time, although this also depends on demand.
At this stage the only way to modify your ECU settings is with a piggy back,

Re: How to Reset/Reprogram your ECU - Series I & II
Hi Noel,
Although I have some programming experience and a familiarity with electronics, I am still very innocent when it comes to the subject of a piggy-back ECU.
Could you give me a brief explanation of the 'what it is', 'what it does' and 'how it is done' or post a link which lets me get some knowledge about it all ?

Re: How to Reset/Reprogram your ECU - Series I & II
OBD-II is an open standard so not sure why there is an issue with tuning companies being able to work with it:

Re: How to Reset/Reprogram your ECU - Series I & II
Hi Noel,
After installing the K&N filter I've noticed the last 5-6 tanks have returned about 11.5 ltr/100km instead of the previous 10.5
I notice in your first post on this you mention resetting the ECU when adding the K&N filter.
Won't the ECU register the different airflow and adjust itself ? It has been about 7 weeks since the filter was fitted.
I am due for a service in a week so I will wait until after then if I need to reset the ECU.

The quick ECU re-set just ensures that you don't have to wait 7 weeks to enjoy the full potential of any performance modification, as it will force the ECU to pick-up the new settings on the spot.
