Good day, please be advised that, my 'Infiniti Q50Hybrid' has problem with steering system. I have visited Nissan center in Tbilisi for assistance but to try solve this problem they don't have instruction manual of Q50 hybrid version.
please advice how & where can I found instruction manual. (In addition: diagnostic shows following alarms: chasssis Control mulfunction, EPS/DAST3, DAST1, DAST2, VSP. Also note that car can run & drive but, its too heavy to move steering wheel. If possible I can send some pictures too.
Jobs already done: One of the steering control module was broken-renewed by spare (Part # NISSAN 285054GA6E) but no any response.
please advise your vision/opinion. Thank you in advance & sorry for taking your time.

Really? I assume you had an Infiniti with it and didn't like it for some reason. Would you care to explain?

I have driven both systems more than once. I had to special order my Q50 without DAS.. Each to their own. If you like it good for you. That's why it's optional.

I personally don't like fly by wire steering, or it's feel.

Way to much computer controlled "stuff" as is. Some times simple is better.

My old G37IPL had more trip features n functionality than the newer improved cumbersome Q50 tech. Radio was 2x as good too. Q50 Bose only has base and treble adj., WTF? Not even a merger midrange adjustment. I have lots of things I'm not happy about with the new Q50. The map in the Nav sys is horrid. So I use my phone often.

But can live with it. I change some of it. IPL exhaust system was MUCH better than the Q50 RS system. That's why I have a Fast Intentions full system on orders as an example.

There is a reason most reviews don't like the Q50 DAS, maybe because reviewers like feedback because they are used to it.

I have only read of one professional driver who liked Q50 DAS. (in it's current form) and he works for Infiniti. Maybe more pro drivers do like the Q50 DAS..

FYI The new Ford GT has electronic steering. Race drivers like it, also ride height, spring rate, and dampening are driver/computer controlled. It, like the Q50 is a twin turbo V6 (a 3.5L tho). But it's a whopping $450,000. You get a 647 HP, 550 torque, 3265 lb car. Gets 11/18 MPG too. It comes only with a dual clutch 7 speed auto. Top speed 216 mph. But it's also not a comfortable family car like the Q50.

I do not like my DAS, just 2 days ago the system crapped the bed pulling my car to the left. I had to pull up the DAS system reset procedure and perform it. The car was fine afterwards and re calibrated itself but still it's very scary. I don't want this on my next car.

I have the manuals pm me

I had the same thing happen to steering angle sub control module on the passenger side it blew the H 100A fusible link by the terminal where you would jump your car on the driver side behind the headlight once I repaired it the modules work but throw the same code on all three DAST systems

The VSP code I have is B2741 but my hybrid pedestrian warning speaker was ripped off also in the front right corner the manual says the connector layout and wire coloring as follows:

Top
__
(2/1)

1-LG
2-BR

This view is from begins the connector
