SLIP and VDC light no acceleration! HELP!
Dealer just got back to me and said they ordered a new throttle body for me and it's covered under warranty.
They didn't say a peep about my K&N filter or Z-tube, even though I told them about it.

Not sure if this the same exact problem...
This just randomly started about a week ago in my 2003.5. While driving, or accelerating, the Parking Brake light, SLIP light, and VDC light all come on and stay on. But the difference here is that I don't lose any acceleration. I can drive normally, but all the lights are on for some reason. Eventually the Parking Brake light will turn off, but the other 2 remain on. Is this related to the throttle body as well? And how much will the dealer charge me since I am out of warranty? Please advise. Thanks.
had this problem, all i had to do was adjust the little screw counterclockwise on top of the throttle body, its a black screw and theres a nut locking it in, adjust it one turn at a time and disco the bat every time, drive it around till its ok again

You can add me to the list too...all lights went on (CEL, SLIP, VDC) right when i started the car....and the service departments all closed at 7PM so I couldn't schedule an appointment...lucky me...
I went to the infiniti dealer here in sfla, they could not find anything with the scanner, but what they told me is that they resetted the computer on the car and that it'll hold the codes for the next 50 key cycles, no code came up for these lights, but I did hear the tch and service coord. talking bout code 2025?? not even sure that was it... but the told me that if it was a 2025 nothing could be done.... anyone have a clue of that they're talking bout??
Well I'll Be There This Saturday Again Or Before, The Lights Went Off Again On Sunday And The Low Tire Pressure Came On This Morning... Also Does Anyone Know If The Paint Is Covered Under The Warranty??? The Front Bumper Right Arround The Access Holw For The Tow Bar Is Peeling Off!!!!

Have the dealer look at it, and if it's not driveable, they'll tow it for you.

I feel a bit left out. I had the slip and VDC lights come up last week. When I took it in, the tech I spoke with suggested it might be the throttle body.
According to the work performed, "Found ground wires loose; secured loose ground wires per tsb."
That might help you when you take yours in; it might not...
