Still no joy, Nissan could find no reason for the problem and the injection garage that currently has the vehicle have also been unable to find any issues. They removed and tested the injectors and they were all found to be good, so they are not the source of the issue (thankfully at a grand a pop!!). Has anybody found intermittent issues with the ECU? I'm getting desperate here and grabbing at straws; the engine starts and idles with no issue and sometimes even revs past 1100 rpm with no issue but put it in gear and it hunts and misses badly. Whatever the cause, it seems to be deteriorating as it no longer clears readily so the car is now pretty much undrivable as the problem can occur anytime. The garage said that it did throw a tranny code the other day and were going to explore that as a potential source of the problem, I don't know the code number, should have asked them. I've asked them to explore the potential air leak from the bleeder cap, other than that everybody seems to be out of ideas which is very frustrating. Any fresh ideas are very welcome.To recap, from cold, engine starts instantly and normally will idle evenly with no probs. Attempt to rev the motor and it struggles to rev past 1100 rpm, missing and coughing badly plus copious quantities of white smoke. Previously, messing with the throttle to get it past the 1100 rpm would eventually see the problem clear and the car would drive without any issues. Now once it clears it'll rev easily past 1100 with a slight miss apparent as it passes through 1100 rpm but revs out fine; put it into drive though and it gets ugly, misses badly and doesn't want to accelerate at all. All professionals that have looked at it have been unable to find any problems at all??
