G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Before you do anything else you need to get somewhere you can have the code read. You can buy the scanner yourself and then google the code you get or take it to a mechanic/parts store and they will tell you what it is for a small fee. This will tell you why your car is doing what it's doing.
There is an issue with water dripping onto the wiring harness on the passenger side. It happened to a lot of guys in the rain. Everytime it rained the car would act funny. You washed yours and it could be the culprit also.
Get the code read. Then come back and update.

anyways long story short the guy at part source said he would hook up the obd scanner to my car to check why the service engine light came on late saturday night...one problem, he told me i had to show him where the hook up for the scanner was, and i told him i didnt no because its a new car..he then told me to come back when i know....so can anyone here tell me where the obd scanner is supposed to hook up to?

Since you have a 6mt and it will not move while you have it in gear and takes a couple of tries for the gears to engange, it honestly sounds like the clutch. Also you might be having problems have a problem with your MAF... Just have the coded pulled and diagnosed... Really sorry to here that you having problems with your G already. If this is bought from the dealership, just check with them to see if this is under warranty. Good Luck!!!

ok guys, the guy at partsource(canadas autozone i guess) didnt charge me anything for his time to scan my error code so if anyone ever needs a scanner, go to partsource...
my error code is P2135...not sure what that is, but what i can tell you is that the cars has been driving absolutly fine the last 3 days, so im hoping it was just an issue with water getting in the engine right after i washed the car...who knows what this code means though?

Heres the ECU reset steps:
ECU Resetting Procedures
Timing is extremely critical. If it is NOT DONE within the specify time, the ECU will not reset and the Check Engine Light (CEL) will continue to remain ON.
A stop watch or an analog clock with a second’s needle will be useful.
Operations Procedures
1. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully released, turn ignition switch “ON” and wait 3 seconds.
2. Repeat the following steps (2a and 2b) procedures quickly five times within 5 seconds.
2a. Fully depress the accelerator pedal (HARD).
2b. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
3. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 10 seconds until the CEL starts blinking.
4. Fully release the accelerator pedal (while the CEL is still blinking)
5. Wait about 10 second.
6. Fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for more than 10 seconds.
7. Fully release the accelerator pedal (The CEL light will continue to blink).
8. Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position and now you can start the car. The CEL light should be gone.
If the CEL light continues to remain ON, repeat the above steps. Timing is EXTREMELY critical to resetting the ECU.

Good to know that it is not your clutch... P2135 is a TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) Code. Check and clean the throtlle body for carbon deposit and check wire harness that connects to the TPS to see if anything is broken. Also, would have to do what is called a "idle relearn" where it sets the signal from pedal to throttle. Could be done at dealership or someone that has a snap on verus scanner... Hope this helps and good luck....

so im thinking i should disconnect the negative terminal on the battery...
1)then pull out the throttle body and clean it real nicely...
2)then pull the maf senson just in case and clean that up nicely...
3)pull the throttle body sensor and clean that up with sensor cleaner..
4) re-connect everything i have just cleaned
5) reset the ECU
any opinions on my setup im going to try out? suggestions, advice, comments?
all of you guys have been great witht the help so far, lol keep it coming!
