NOTICE
.If the warning light comes on
while driving there may be a
malfunction in the AWD system.
Reduce the vehicle speed and it is
recommended you have your ve-
hicle checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
. If the warning light remains on
after the above operation, it is
recommended you have your ve-
hicle checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
. The powertrain may be damaged
if you continue driving with the
warning light blinking.
. Do not spin the rear wheels while
driving. Spinning the rear wheels
may increase the temperatures
of the AWD clutch system and
damage the system. Adjust the
accelerator pedal position to stop
wheel spin.
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.

ways use run-flat tires of the specified
size on all four wheels. Mixing tire sizes or
construction may reduce vehicle handling
stability. If necessary, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for assistance.
Frequently check the tire pressure infor-
mation on the touch screen display and
adjust pressure of each tire properly. See
the separate Multi Function Display Own-
er’s Manual.
It can be difficult to tell if a run-flat tire is
under-inflated or flat. Check the tire
pressures as described earlier in this
section. If the tire becomes under-inflated
while driving, the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will come on. If the tire becomes
flat while driving, the low tire pressure
warning light and the run-flat tire warn-
ing display will come on.
Low tire pressure:

as possible, as the tire’s perfor-
mance capability is reduced.
Tires for All-Wheel Drive (AWD)If excessive tire wear is found, it is
recommended that all four tires be re-
placed with tires of the specified size,
brand, construction and tread pattern.
The tire pressure and wheel alignment
should also be checked and corrected as
necessary. It is recommended you con-
tact a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.TIRE CHAINS

. Always use tires of the specified
type, size, brand, construction
(bias, bias-belted, radial or run-
flat), and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Failure to do so may
result in a circumference differ-
ence between tires on the front
and rear axles which will cause
excessive tire wear and may da-
mage the transmission, transfer
case and differential gears.

.If the AWD warning light blinks on
when you are driving:
— blinks rapidly (about twice a
second):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. The driv-
ing mode will change to RWD
to prevent the AWD system
from malfunctioning. If the
warning light turns off, you
can drive again. This does
not indicate that there is a
malfunction.
— blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. Check
that all tire sizes are the same
as that specified on the Tire
and Loading Information label
located in the driver’s door
opening, tire pressure is cor-
rect and tires are not worn.
