Re: SES - Airflow Meter needs replaced? [cook0513] by jiamin

It is easy to clean the airflow meter yourself. I haven't done it on my QX4 but on my RX300. It is expensive to replace it. Normally it does not break but just gets dirty. A few $ of some cleaner will fix the problem.
 
I would not let dealer perform any additional recommended service unless I know absolutely necessary. the more you let them do the more stuff needs service, that's the way they make money (not always of cause).

QX4 for sale, 48,700 miles by jessw1

I'm in Los Angeles and I'm selling my 2001 Infiniti QX4 in titanium silver. It only has 48,700 miles. The car is in excellent condition (Interior,Exterior, Mechanical and Structural). I am the original owner (non-smoker) and this car has really been babied. I purchased it at Glendale Infiniti and the car has a factory extended warranty until Sept. 2008. It has never been in any accidents. Brand new tires and registration is paid until July 2009. I have all books and manuals, it's always been serviced at an Infiniti dealer. It has never been used for towing, although it does come with a tow kit. I'm asking $13,500. Let me know if you are in the area and are interested.

2001 QX4 Stereo replacement by cook0513
Aug 18, 2008 (4:40 pm)

I have an ERR2 sign that comes up on my stereo. Now, i've read in other threads that the replacement of the stereo by the factory or otherwise costs around $600. If i'm going to spend that kind of money, i might as well get an aftermarket head unit w/ bluetooth, etc. (especially since the implentation of the "hands-free" law in CA)
 
My question is: how difficult would it be for myself (or even a trained technician at Best Buy or otherwise) to install? The sound system that is in there is the factory Bose Premium Sound, and i'm not looking to upgrade it at all, just the head unit. Would the install be difficult due to the amps and speakers? I don't even know where the amps are, much less how they would affect the install of a new unit.
 
*for reference sake, the model of head unit i am looking to get is Sony's MEX-BT5100
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
thanks!

There is something to do with the matching of a stereo the the Bose system, not just any aftermarket stereo will work. I replaced mine at a local Car Stereo Shop with a unit that handle Ipod functions etc and it wasn't that expensive. Just make sure you get the unit that is compatible with the bose system. A good car stereo shop should be able to sow you the right one.

grinding sound by ferdzz

I'm hearing a grinding loud sound in my Qx4 2003 model when turning and accelerate at high speed. I check the brake pad and it's not worn, I check also the metal heat shield if it is rubbing in the rotor but there is no sign of rubbing from it. i was thinking maybe it's from differential are there's somebody here experienced this problem?

The only new noise that has developed in our 2003 QX4 has been diagnosed as a heat shield that is rattling or resonating at acceleration. Certainly not a "grinding" sound as ferdzz describes. Even if it is high mileage, I would be surprised if it is a timing chain. Check the grease level in the differential.
