Replying to: elmorocotopo (Apr 14, 2008 7:19 am) Yeah, I got the same story 45K miles. Tech said that while it did seem unusual, it was not unheard of for belts to be cracking so soon. I have an '04X , with (now) 49K NYC miles. Something that falls under the replace now-better safe than sorry heading, IMO.
#2594 of 2838 2006 G35 coupe engine oil maintenance by dukiedoug May 12, 2008 (6:42 am)
I just purchased an '06 G35 coupe with 32k miles. I was wondering how often most people are changing their oil? The gentleman I purchased the car from had the oil changed every 5k and was using full synthetic oil. I have done some research online and ran into a brand called AMSOIL and they say you only need to change the oil every 25k, if your using their brand of engine oil. Seems a little high to me. Just curious what most people are using for engine oil changes and filters. Replies to this message: darrinzramz (May 12, 2008 7:15 am)

Replying to: dukiedoug (May 12, 2008 6:42 am) Absolutely not!!!,I would not change from your full-synthetic oil to AMSOIL oil!!!,you really should change it every 5,000mi,Now if you abuse or drive extremely hard then change it every 3,000-4,000miles.Never let your oil go for 25,000miles,that's just not good for the car's engine,i believe,Darrin

Replying to: g35owner (May 24, 2004 11:34 am) Hi,my name is Darrin and I too have a 2004 G35 sedan,try using a K&N air filter and change your plugs to a NGK laser fire plug,it may increase your mileage a little.I get about 20-21mi/gal on my car,Darrin
#2597 of 2838 Window Motors by sevenaway May 13, 2008 (8:59 am)
Has anyone had a problem with their window motors to the extent that even after three replacements, the window does still not work correctly. The passenger window drops a noticeable amount when you open the door while the driver window (with a new motor) barely moves at all. I have had this back to Infiniti three times and they still can't get it right.   Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Replying to: kd6aw1 (Apr 24, 2002 9:18 am) Paul, I've had the same problem. The dealer told me it takes 20 minutes for the thermometer to calibrate correctly.That's pretty odd. But, sure enough, after 20 minutes of fluctuating readings (as much as 15 degrees off kilter), the system stabilizes.
#2599 of 2838 Oil Change Interval? by brian62 May 19, 2008 (5:42 am)
Just picked up my new G35 this weekend and was reviewing the service manual. It suggests oil changes every 3,750 miles for normal driving. Just curious to see what others are doing.   If I use synthetic oil will it extend this period? Replies to this message: adamr001 (May 19, 2008 7:33 am) ccdbb (Jun 07, 2008 2:36 pm)

Replying to: brian62 (May 19, 2008 5:42 am) This is an age old argument. Some people say yes, some people say no. I'm in the second category. To me, contaminents are contaminents. They don't just come from the oil being worn down, but they come from the filter and other factors too. As much as we'd like to pretend that the oil systems in our vehicles are closed, they are, in fact, not closed system. Synthetic oil has, on the whole, more resistence to break down (good) but it does nothing to reduce the additional contaminents introduced everytime the system is opened, the filter gets a little old, etc. Then again, I'm leasing this one so I'm just staying with plain ol' dino oil and changing per the book. Most of the "stress" tests where you see synthetic "beating out" conventional oil are rigged. How? Well, they intentionally place the vehicle in state that encourages breakdown by heat. A state no normal driver will ever see. Some racer's see it, but you know what? Every racer I know changes their oil FAR more frequently than 3000 miles too because they KNOW they're breaking down the oil.   Ultimately, it's a personal choice and YMMV.

#2601 of 2838 Dent on my new G35 by vybhav May 19, 2008 (12:41 pm)
Hello everyone,   I have a small dent on my new G35 . I hit the car ahead accidentally. I called the Infiniti dealer and he said they don't repair dents and stuff. I live in San Diego. Any suggestions on where I can get it fixed in way that makes it seem it never existed ? I am a newbie and this is my first car . So, not much experience with all this . Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Vybhav Replies to this message: agm1 (Jun 04, 2008 1:00 pm)
