I would imagine that it would be under your car's warantee, but unfortunately I don't have one of those. I am going to try to find the model number of the in-dash and see if I can call Bose about it. I'll DEFINITELY let you know what I find out.

Recommended replacement schedule by rvenkat

Anyone know what the recommended replacement schedule for the water pump and/or timing chain is? I heard the latter does not need to be changed as long as you do regular oil changes but what about the water pump? Thanks.

I have an '03 I35 and just spoke with a service writer about the CD player skipping this morning. He indicated there was nothing they'd do, even if the car was under warranty, which I find hard to believe. Because it's weather related, he indicated, it's not a "persistent" problem. That's why I ended up here, of course. He also recommended a cleaning disc, but I see that's been only slightly effective.
 
I'm also going to try to contact BOSE about this. Perhaps with enough consumer interest, they or Infiniti will work to resolve the problem.

To be honest, I have had this problem for atleast the last ten years. Both my maxima's had that same problem, then I bought a I35 which currently has the same problem. A friend of mine has a Acura, and his CD player doesn't play for the first 20 minutes if its really cold outside. I was told by that even with a new Bose CD player eventually it's going to happen again.

Well, it's all just too sad that BOSE - one of the best sound system companies in the world - can't produce better quality than a weather conditioned stereo that skips to a bit of chill. And what a crock that the Bose package that people pay to have on this car is such a low quality for the price. I think I have learned that Bose is BEST left inside the house.

It should be pointed out here that Bose doesn't actually manufacture these units: they are produced under license by Clarion.
 
The only skips I have encountered on my 2000 I30 were from CD-Rs of perhaps questionable provenance; commercially-produced discs work just fine. (So far.) After consulting some tech types, I believe that even the CD-R issues can be mostly avoided by (1) burning at slower speeds and (2) sticking to 74-minute (650 mb) discs, which are easier to track than the ubiquitous 80-minute discs.

Hi Gus,
 
I read your post with regards to the buzzing sound. I am having the exact problem with my 2003 I35. I was wondering if you were able to determine problem and if you could share the solution
 
Regards,
 
Rick.

This turned out to be a problem with the Electronic Motor Mounts - which one of the other guys had suggested to me.........
If you disco the battery for a bit and reconnect - the noise should go away
But - the next time you hit the gas hard - the problem will return
I got the parts from Infinity and had my local guy do the work - less labor but the parts were 400. There was a service bulletin for my car on this problem.
Hope this helps - GUS

Used I 30 by tmyrick1

Hello everyone, I am considering buying a used 98 i 30 standard. It has 164,491 miles. The car is in good condition and runs good. the only problem i see is that upon initial start up the belt squeals. If i turn off and restart the belt does not squeal.
Also does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions that I should know or consider for this vehicle. Thanks to all replies
