Car won’t start,
have tried 4 sensors including new oem
Hitachi and a new plug none of which has fixed it.
Subsequently I've changed all spark plugs, ignition coils
and the other cam position sensor with the crank one too
recently. All oem hitachi sensors with a brand new
Hitachi MAF and new plug wired in too. Along with that
the oil was changed too.

Please help with ideas

Welcome, but sorry to hear of your problems. In cases like this, it's always helpful to post what year Z and model you have. Also, your current mileage and when this no-start issue started.

It's been a couple of weeks and no answers to any of the questions posted above. Any updates on this no-start issue?

Hi sorry it’s a 2003 vq35de manual UK spec

When did the no-start problem start? Were there any other conditions linked to it, like problems that happened to the car?

No problems that happened with the car as I know of, I bought the car like this and have receipts for these new sensors at around September last year, checked them myself too and they all look new, sometimes will start but go limp and instantly die.

I hope you bought this car for a song as you bought some problems with it. Did the previous owner give you any clues as to what happened before the 'no-start' problem started?

It was a good deal I believe yes, and no just what they had tried to resolve the issue

I just asked and he said it started shutting off on a motorway drive for split seconds if you go over 2k revs, was about 4-5 months ago, and then the journey of him replacing the sensors happened, then it was sold to me
