WTB: YAW/Gravity Sensor - 2005 G35 Coupe 6-Speed

Like the title says, I need the Yaw Rate Sensor, also know as the gravity sensor for my 2005 G35 coupe.

Thanks!

Just wondering, how do you know that this went bad in your car? Im having issues when i take a real hard right turn (on an exit ramp or similar) and my VDC kicks in when it seems like it really shouldnt be. lol Sorry for the thread jack.

I always thought the vdc kicks in waaaaay before it's suppose to also.. That's why I always turn it off..

As for the yaw rate sensor...? I just had to replace mine on my 4runner.. It was a lil pricey cuz the stealership raped me raw dawg...!

No problem! My low traction and VDC OFF lights are both on all the time. I originally thought I needed new brakes but the dealer scanned and told me my YAW sensor went bad. It's pretty easy to replace but not a cheap part. So hopefully i'll find a used one.

How are your tires looking? Might be that your rears are getting low and slipping, just a small slip will cause VDC to jump in.

We have a used one on the self, I would have to check on pricing, and I will sell it to you if you insist but i'm 99% sure that isn't the problem. For some reason the dealer likes to blame VDC problems they can't figure out on the YAW Sensor, I had the same issue (hints why we have one on the shelf) it didn't fix my problem. We have also seen this a handful of times since. A bad wheel bearing will cause the VDC to do crazy things at low speeds, if you have someone local that has Cipher they can log your wheel speed sensors and tell you which bearing it is.

Let me know if I can help you with anything!

Rob knows what he is talking about I'd try it his way first.
