350Z Idle Stop Failure

My 2009 Nissan 350Z (gasoline engine) is acting up. The idle stop isn't working – sometimes it just shuts off completely. There's an error stored and the warning light is on. Could it be a heavily discharged or dead battery?

Sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my old Peugeot 208. The start-stop system went bonkers with the same symptoms. Did you check the battery voltage? Maybe get it load tested?

Load tested? Never done that before, sounds technical. What does that show?

Think of it like this: voltage is how full the glass is, a load test is how fast you can chug the juice. It shows if the battery can actually deliver power under load. If it's failing, your start-stop will complain first. With those errors and the engine cutting out, I'd take it to a workshop.

I suspected it was the battery. Just got it checked, and you were right – the battery was toast. New one fitted, cost 290€, and now it's purring again!
