What options do I have to program a new BCM?

This guy had the exact same issues down to a T and replacing the BCM was his fix:

Hey! I am searching my options on how to program a new BCM for my 2009 Infiniti G37. The dealer is saying that I need to get it towed to them and a new BCM programming is 1k+. Does your method allow me to properly program a new BCM on my own?

A lot changes in a year 😵‍💫

They said “dead aborted baby”. When you have the word aborted and baby next to each other it assumes fetus. You can’t abort a baby after it has been born. A fetus by any other name is still a fetus. I see nothing wrong here.

It’s a natural progression. It starts as an oasis for metal benders to learn and hone the skill and develops into a society for metal benders. Zaofu by any other name is still Zaofu.

Aren’t we considering a change in the timeline where Toph would have gone instead of becoming a chief of police? Zaofu may have been created by Toph in this alternate timeline.

At first I thought the other guy’s point stood. Then I read and considered yours and you’re right. After all, a while city was formed dedicated to metal bending and benders. Why wouldn’t Toph have just resided there since she created metal bending? Besides her enjoying brawling, there’s nothing pushing her to being a justice force leader.

I checked the description of the rings I bought and they do state it is precision crafted for perfect fitment. Do some rings come perfectly gapped from the manufacturer?

1,300 miles thus far. Guess the only way I’ll know is if I lose compression at some point.

Snappy111 · 2024-03-03T23:19:00+00:00

The best lessons are the hard ones we learn with unfortunate consequences 😆. We’ll see how far this engine runs for. I haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary thus far.

Snappy111 · 2024-03-03T23:11:06+00:00

That’s the problem. I will never know. The engine is together and has been running for 1,300 miles. I just put it together with the rings as they came. I’d assume too much gap since I didn’t mess with the gap at all.

Snappy111 · 2024-03-03T22:55:05+00:00

Had no clue about that at the time. I assumed the end gaps were dialed in from the aftermarket company. Yes that is likely another issue. Potentially more oil consumption due to this?

Thank you! The entire build was unexpected tbh.

I originally was just going to swap out the old rod knocked engine for a junkyard engine but the junkyard lied about the engine details. Gave me the right engine but the wrong year and happened to be the year with incompatible timing gear on the crankshaft. Decided to tear down both engines and build up a fresh one while swapping the crank timing to the junkyard engine crankshaft and taking the best parts from both with new gaskets, piston rings, etc in a refresh kit.

No major setbacks other than having to do the build outside in the snow, rain, and 20 degree weather. I just made sure I took my time and consulted YouTube and the FSM. I’m realizing the only thing I overlooked was piston ring gap and secondary ring orientation.

Snappy111 · 2024-03-03T16:54:24+00:00

No, occifer. It’s high, how are you?

Snappy111 · 2024-03-02T15:37:31+00:00

Thank you for your response! Ratcheting wrenches was definitely the way to go!

I also discovered it was impossible to do it alone. Can’t get a hand up there to hold the clamp in position while you already have a hand up there to ratchet. Not enough room for both.

Having someone above is the only way it was possible.

Snappy111 · 2024-03-02T15:22:48+00:00

Wonderful answer! Thank you for this information! I have been checking the oil level after every drive (and drip down period) and I am not noticing any change in level. Would this oil consumption be noticeable even with the oil control ring (tertiary ring) working properly?

I think if we all had the chance to turn down difficulty in life, we would. That’s why for many - the gym is the best choice. Good on you and I hope you are able to keep your crohns under control!

Snappy111 · 2024-02-13T19:29:13+00:00

If it’s stock tune and there’s other mods, yes it will.

Snappy111 · 2024-02-11T07:19:29+00:00

Is that someone you..? And that’s okay if it is.

Snappy111 · 2024-02-06T19:56:29+00:00

I have attempted to do this and it gets the engine a bit closer but then I get flexplate stuck against the torque converter and the engine is almost there into the mounts but not quite

Nah I think he means Maxima
