ECO mode NISSAN GT-R 2022 Repair Manual

OPENING AND CLOSING THE
TRUNKWhen opening the trunk, first unlock it
then lift up the trunk lid so that it is fully
open.
When closing the trunk, lower the trunk
lid and press it until it is securely locked in
place. The strap
(except for carbon
trunk lid models) or the handle
(for
carbon trunk lid models) can be used
when the trunk lid is dirty.
NOTICE
. Open and close the trunk without
grasping the rear spoiler. Grasp-
ing the rear spoiler to open or
close the trunk may damage the
spoiler.
. Do not leave the key inside the
trunk.
NOTE:
. To prevent the Intelligent Key from
being accidentally locked in the
trunk, lockout protection is
equipped with the Intelligent Key
system. When the trunk lid is closed
with the Intelligent Key inside the
trunk, the outside buzzer will sound and the trunk will open.
. The trunk of this vehicle is slightly
more difficult to close than an or-
dinary vehicle (particularly when the
vehicle is new). This is because the
trunk rigidity has been increased to
handle the high load on the rear
spoiler during vehicle operation.
This does not indicate that there is
a malfunction. Check that the trunk
is securely locked.
EMERGENCY TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them
from playing and becoming locked
in the trunk where they could be
seriously injured. Keep the car
locked, with the trunk lid securely
latched, when not in use, and pre-
vent children’s access to Intelligent
Keys.

When stopping the vehicle with the shift lever in the
orposition. Move the shift lever after turning off the system check
display. Also, it is normal to hear clicking noises during the transmission systems check.
Changing modes
.
The higher shift speeds in the
position may result in shift shock and jerkiness when starting or shifting.
.
The quickest shifting in the R mode with the transmission in the
position is available when the engine speed is high.
However, the transmission may shift more slowly when the engine speed is low.
Mechanical Limited Slip
Differential (LSD) If the vehicle accelerates from a stop with the steering wheel turned half a turn in cold temperatures, the inner wheel tire
may slip and some noise or vibration may be heard. This phenomenon occurs because the viscosity of the differential oil
becomes thicker and the Limited Slip Differential (LSD) operates with increasing load. When the steering wheel is returned
to the straight ahead position or the differential oil warms up, the noise and vibration decrease.

. This may cause improper windshield
washer operation. If the nozzle is clogged,
remove any objects with a needle or small
pin
. Be careful not to damage the
nozzle. If the brakes do not operate properly,
have the brakes checked. It is recom-
mended you contact a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
SELF-ADJUSTING BRAKESYour vehicle is equipped with self-adjust-
ing brakes.
The disc-type brakes self-adjust every
time the brake pedal is applied.
HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKE SYS-
TEM (models without NCCB
(NISSAN Carbon Ceramic Brake)
package)This vehicle is equipped with high perfor-
mance brake pads that provide appro-
priate braking force in a broad range of
driving environments. Due to the material
used for the brake pads, the road wheels
may become more easily covered by
brake dust, however this does not indi-
cate that there is a malfunction.
The GT-R brake pads use material that
contains a lot of iron to maintain steady
braking performance even in high and
low temperatures. However, if the brake

NOTICE
Make sure the tire valve stem cap is
installed and that the valve stem is
tight. When installing the cap, make
sure to tighten the cap by hand. If a
tool is used to tighten the cap, the
cap may be damaged.TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)This vehicle is equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When
the low tire pressure warning light is lit,
one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. The system also displays
pressure of all tires on the touch screen
display by sending a signal from a sensor
that is installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h). Also, this system may not
detect a sudden drop in tire pressure.

Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressure often and
always prior to long distance trips.
The recommended tire pressure
specifications are shown on the F.
M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label or the Tire
and Loading Information label (if so
equipped) under the “Cold Tire
Pressure” heading. The Tire and
Loading Information label is affixed
to the driver side door end. Tire
pressures should be checked reg-
ularly because:.
Most tires naturally lose air over
time.
.
Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other
objects or if the vehicle strikes
a curb while parking.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all
four tires on the touch screen dis-
play. See the separate Multi Func-
tion Display Owner’s Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled
with nitrogen gas. When the tire
pressure is low, fill the tires with nitrogen. It is recommended you
contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer for information on filling the
tires with nitrogen.
. If nitrogen is not available, com-
pressed air may be safely used
under normal driving conditions.
However, NISSAN recommends re-
filling with nitrogen for maximum
tire performance.
The tire pressures should be
checked when the tires are cold.
The tires are considered COLD after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 or
more hours, or driven less than 1
mile (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
Incorrect tire pressure, including
under inflation, may adversely
affect tire life and vehicle hand-
ling.
WARNING
.
Improperly inflated tires can
fail suddenly and cause an
accident.
.
The Gross Vehicle Weight
rating (GVWR) is located on

the same load rating as the factory
installed tire.

Other tire-related terminology:
In addition to the many terms that
are defined throughout this sec-
tion, Intended Outboard Sidewall is
(1) the sidewall that contains a
whitewall, bears white lettering or
bears manufacturer, brand and/or
model name molding that is higher
or deeper than the same molding
on the other sidewall of the tire, or
(2) the outward facing sidewall of
an asymmetrical tire that has a
particular side that must always

TYPES OF TIRES
WARNING
.
When changing or replacing tires,
be sure all four tires are of the
same type (Examples: Summer or
All Season) and construction. A
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer may
be able to help you with informa-
tion about tire type, size, speed
rating and availability.
. Replacing tires with those not
originally specified by NISSAN
could affect the proper operation
of the TPMS.
. For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information” (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.All-season tiresNISSAN specifies all-season tires on some
models to provide good performance for
use all year around, including snowy and
icy road conditions. All-season tires are identified by ALL SEASON on the tire
sidewall.
Summer tiresThe GT-R summer tires are made from a
specially formulated rubber to maximize
the vehicle’s performance capabilities.
Performance of summer tires is substan-
tially reduced when temperatures are less
than 32°F (0°C) so you must drive care-
fully. NISSAN recommends the use of
winter or all-season tires on all four
wheels if you plan to operate your vehicle
in snowy or icy conditions when tem-
peratures are less than 32°F (0°C).

WARNING
.
Improperly inflated tires can
fail suddenly and cause an
accident.
.
The Gross Vehicle Weight
rating (GVWR) is located on

is started.
If any malfunction occurs in the AWD
system while the engine is running, the
warning light will come on.
The warning light may blink rapidly
(about twice per second) while trying to
free a stuck vehicle due to high AWD
clutch temperature. The driving mode
may change to two-wheel drive. If the
warning light blinks rapidly during opera-
tion, stop the vehicle with the engine
idling in a safe place immediately. Then if
the light goes off after a while, you can
continue driving.
A large difference between the diameters
of front and rear wheels will make the
warning light blink slowly (about once per
two seconds). Pull off the road in a safe
area, and idle the engine. Check that all
tire sizes are the same, tire pressure is
correct and tires are not worn and winter
tires are not installed on the front or rear
wheels only.
If the warning light is blinking after the
above operation, it is recommended you
have your vehicle checked by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
If non-genuine GT-R tires are used, the
warning light may illuminate. (

TIGHT CORNER BRAKING PHE-
NOMENONIf the steering wheel is turned more than
half a turn when the vehicle is started
when it is cold, it may be harder to move
the vehicle forward and backward. This
phenomenon is known as the “tight
corner braking phenomenon”.
This phenomenon is unique to AWD
vehicles, and occurs due to a difference
in speeds between the front and rear
wheels while the vehicle is turning. This
does not indicate that there is a malfunc-
tion.
NOTE:
If the tight corner braking phenomenon
occurs, a slipping sound may be heard
from the tires, or a squeaking sound
may be heard from the drive system.Reducing tight corner braking
phenomenonThe tight corner braking phenomenon
can be reduced if the following three
conditions are met:
.Transmission setup switch is set to
Normal mode.
. Vehicle speed is low (less than ap-
proximately 6 MPH (10 km/h)). .
The steering wheel is turned more
than 1/2 turn.
TIRESThis vehicle is equipped with special tires.
When changing the tires, install the de-
signated special tires. Replacing tires as a
set of four with new ones is recom-
mended. However, if a tire is punctured
or damaged, it may be possible to replace
only the damaged tire. Determining
whether one tire or a complete set of
tires should be replaced is based on a
number of factors including tire wear and
condition. Contact your GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer. They can recommend if
an individual tire or a complete set should
be replaced.
NOTICE
If tires other than the designated
tires, tires with large differences in
wear or tires of different sizes are
installed, the AWD performance will
be degraded and the drive mechan-
ism may be damaged.
AWD SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICSThe AWD system automatically distri-
butes the optimal torque to the front
and rear wheels. This provides both the
superior turning performance of a rear
wheel drive vehicle and the traction of a
AWD vehicle.
Electronic control continuously distri-
butes torque to the front and rear wheels
in the range from 0:100 (rear-wheel drive
mode) to 50:50 (all-wheel drive mode) to
match the driving conditions and road
conditions. This allows the engine output
(torque) to be effectively transmitted to
the road surface.
