*1: Mobil 1 (0W-40) (100% synthetic) is the factory fill oil. The VR38 engine with its plasma-sprayed
bores was developed using this oil. NISSAN
cannot ensure proper engine operation and
durability if other 0W-40 synthetic oil is used.
If Mobil 1 (0W-40) is not available, Mobil 1
(10W-40) (100% synthetic) may be used;
however, some performance loss may be
noticed.
*2: Genuine NISSAN Brake Fluid R35 Special II is the factory fill brake fluid. The Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) unit and other related parts were
specially designed for this brake fluid and
NISSAN cannot ensure proper operation of the
vehicle if other brake fluid is used.

reduced and the clutch may be
reduced to keep the clutch disen-
gaged.
R mode start function:
GUID-E22DEED8-E349-45C2-B1F1-0C9BCF3B8FB9If the R mode start function is used 4 times
continuously, the function may be disabled and
cannot be turned on for protection. While the
function is disabled, the warning light illumi-
nates. When the warning light goes off, the
function can be used again. (
ªR mode start
functionº page 5-32)
When the warning light illuminates, perform cool
down driving (driving 1.3 mile (2 km) in 5th or
6th gear at a speed of approximately 37 - 50
MPH (60 - 80 km/h) while checking the
temperature of the transmission oil until the
warning light goes off.
NOTICE
While the warning light is illuminated,
the engine output is controlled so that
it does not increase.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
GUID-133481A7-A7D1-4868-96FC-76FC517EF3F4The light will blink when the VDC system or the
traction control system is operating, thus alerting
the driver that the vehicle is nearing its traction
limits. The road surface may be slippery.
If the VDC warning light illuminates when the
VDC system is turned on, this light alerts the
driver to the fact that the VDC system's fail-safe
mode is operating, for example the VDC or hill
start assist system may not be functioning
properly. Have the system checked by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. If a malfunction occurs
in the system, the VDC system function will be
canceled but the vehicle is still driveable.

controlled by the cruise control system. If the
light blinks while the engine is running, it may
indicate the cruise control system is not
functioning properly. It is recommended you
have the system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.

Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
GUID-7AE6836F-62DC-4F8F-81D2-F95B25AF5E24If the malfunction indicator light comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is running, it
may indicate a potential emission control or the
muffler with electronic control valve (if so
equipped) malfunction.
The malfunction indicator light may also come on
steady if the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, or
if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make
sure the fuel-filler cap is installed and closed
tightly, and that the vehicle has at least 3 US
gallons (12 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20 seconds
and then blinks for 10 seconds when the engine
is not running, it indicates that the vehicle is not
ready for an emission control system inspection/
maintenance test. (
ªReadiness for Inspec-
tion/Maintenance (I/M) test (US only)º page 9-
20)
Operation:
GUID-E22DEED8-E349-45C2-B1F1-0C9BCF3B8FB9The malfunction indicator light will come on in
one of two ways: .
Malfunction indicator light on steady Ð An
emission control system malfunction has
been detected. Check the fuel-filler cap. If
the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to drive the
vehicle. The
light should turn off after a
few driving trips. If the
light does not
turn off after a few driving trips, it is
recommended you have the vehicle in-
spected by a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
You do not need to have your vehicle towed
to the dealer.
. Malfunction indicator light blinking Ð An
engine misfire has been detected which may
damage the emission control system.
To reduce or avoid emission control system
damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH
(72 km/h) .
2) Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may stop
blinking and remain on.
It is recommended you have the vehicle
inspected by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer. You do not need to have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
NOTICE
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.
