Smart Key?

[DerrellSC]

I was disappointed with the key fob not having a Z logo on it. Will a previous Z 370 key fob work with the new Z?

Maybe, but if you have an 370z key you could just swap the shells. They are the same size and button layout. No need to reprogram then.

Thanks.
I would have to purchase a new key fob. But if they are an exact match then I would just swap the internals.

Did anyone know you can lower the windows by holding the unlock button? Took me 2 months before i did it unknowingly. Came outside to an open car (the shock of my morning walking to the car) I can only get it to work when the car is off. Can the fob lower the windows after the car is running? Or maybe rise the windows I wonder?

Nissans have had that hold-to-lower-windows feature for many years. What I would like is the ability to use one key fob for multiple vehicles. We have several Nissans in the family. I haven't figured out a way to do that, and the dealer is not helpful.

Are there any good custom shells available? I also want to get a different key shell/cover, maybe with a Z logo or a different colour to match my car. I haven't found anything good on Amazon or Google yet.

Get the 370z fob part # 285E31ET5D. It has a Z logo instead of the Nissan. Just swap the internal. I ordered one for $90 new. Still don't have my Z yet.

I wish the window would drop to clear the door jam with the door unlock so i would not have to wait before opening the door. what a pita. Can’t just open the door. and even worst that you have to teach passengers how to open the door without pulling on the window.

Hate to break the news to you. The internals are not interchangeable with the new Z fob. People have tried it already

Some tricks:
You can turn off the horn ‘honk’ when you lock from the fob. Hold lock & unlock down together. Lights flash to confirm. After that, only the lights blink twice. Do it again to turn the horn confirmation back on.

You can hold down unlock to also roll down windows on a hot day. Sadly holding down lock doesn’t lock doors & roll the windows up. You have to get in the car, select ACC to roll them up.

I’m angry there’s only an unlock button under the logo for the hatch. On my 370Z there was also a little button that locked the car from there. Why leave it of the Z?

I have gotten in the habit of locking / unlocking from the little button on the door. Press twice to unlock both doors. I hardly press the key fob at all, it just stays in my pocket.

Final complaint- You never want to get into the situation where you can unlock the car and it won’t go into ACC or start. A fault with the BCM can cause this. Don’t keep locking & unlocking the car! Or opening & closing the door! If this happens, the LH window keeps dropping down a fraction & then doesn’t ever go back up. So now I can’t lock the car and get a ride home as the window is stuck 1/2 way down (no ACC = no window control as I mentioned). I’m not going into a long explanation- but it was a nightmare. Call AAA and get a flatbed to the Nissan dealer. Never fun.

That's BS! They recycled so many other parts off the 370! Why reengineer THAT?!

 

[alienpoker]

BS indeed, but true:
The battery connections are on the opposite sides. Keys are interchangeable, but that’s useless. You would think the 370Z “Z” logo cover would fit over the buttons & body of the New Z fob. But no- the cases are just enough different. 370Z case is almost oval. Z case has triangle indentations in the oval. I tried swapping just internals with my 370Z key fob & my Z fob. Does not work. I took a pic (370Z LH, RZ34 RH)

@alienpoker
Thanks for sharing with good info

You can change the settings to unlock both doors with only one press

Would be cool if someone could somehow 3D print one with the rz34 z logo on it and not the z34 z logo. I would pay for that in a heartbeat !
