Replying to: jenna_m (Mar 10, 2009 2:04 pm) YES!!! ,I would buy one,I bought a 2004 Infiniti G35 sedan and I love it!!!,thought it only had one owner,and only 27,000mi on it!!.I got lucky!!!,as for the brakes YES!!!they wear out way too fast!!!,I would recommend having a quailty mechanic(I have one)who knows how to do brakes (which most do).Look on line for Hawk performance street brake pads and get matching rotors.I've been told that they last about:30,000-40,000miles(depending on how hard you are on your brakes when stopping!!)The stock brakes I got installed my dealer only will last about:10,000-15,000miles!!(not good!!)Also I agree the dealer labor rates are very high!!!,my mech.only charges me about:$80.00 to do all 4 brakes!!!,remember the brake pads must be seasoned!!!(you mech.should know how to do this).So your brakes SHOULD LAST:approx.40,000-50,000mi,Darrin
#2760 of 2835 2004 G35 started and idled fine, won't accelerate by bobbobwhite Mar 20, 2009 (6:09 am)
Restarted engine and it ran fine as usual. What happened, and does it need a repair? What is the repair if so, and what is the typical cost? Don't want to drive it and get stranded so please respond ASAP! Thanks for all helpful answers. Replies to this message: pscheid (Mar 20, 2009 6:44 am)

Replying to: bobbobwhite (Mar 20, 2009 6:09 am) The possible causes are numerous.   I had a Mercury Sable about 15 years ago that developed the same symptom. It was about 5 years old with about 50K miles if I recall correctly. The car would start easily, but it was slow on the uptake when blipping the throttle in nuetral.   Couldn't coax 30 miles per hour out of it on the road. Turned out to simply be the catalytic convertor was the culprit. Replaced. Problem solved. May be covered under Infinity warranty if so, but act fast.   You need to provide a little more info on your car (mileage). Also, examine the entire exhaust system for damage like a dented pipe or convertor.   Jack

I agree that the OEM pads do not last long on 03 and 04 G35s. 13,000 miles is about average for the original pads. I changed my pads to Akebono Pro Acts which are ceramic. Not only is there almost no dust, they are also quiet, very easy on the rotors and should last considerably longer than the OEM pads.

Replying to: esfoad (Jun 09, 2008 3:10 pm) I had the same problem and it was the headlight switch. The manual was no help in solving this - thanks!
#2764 of 2835 AC / Radio Issue by summer0703 Apr 12, 2009 (1:20 pm)
I'm a current owner of a 2003 G35 Sedan. I've been keeping my are in shape and do take the car in for scheduled oil chages as requested by the dealer when I purchased the car.   I've had the car for almost six years and I'm beginning to have problems with the car at this time. When I start my car the screen on the radio disappears but the AC in my car is on. I can't seem to turn the AC off but the as the radio is able to work. Just wondering if anyone experienced this situation before? What was the diagnostics of the problem and what is the cost of the damage?   Thank you so much for your help!!! =) Replies to this message: beanctr (Apr 13, 2009 8:16 pm) bythabay (Apr 30, 2009 11:43 am)

Replying to: summer0703 (Apr 12, 2009 1:20 pm) Summer0703, Check the thread on G35 Electrical Issues. I believe the discussion of the issue you are having is mentioned there.

Replying to: jenna_m (Mar 10, 2009 2:04 pm) Hi Jenna,   go ahead and buy the G35. It's very easy to maintain even at home yourself. If you are in the San Francisco, Bay Area, I can service it for you for a very low cost. Look me up on yelp in San Francisco, Enthusiast Auto Care. I do all of the DIY videos also, you can watch those on http://www.infinitihelp.com

Replying to: summer0703 (Apr 12, 2009 1:20 pm) Sounds like you will need a new ac/radio controller. Easy to install if you follow my diy video for dash disassembly
#2768 of 2835 Re: which oil filter? [phantom338] by bythabay Apr 30, 2009 (11:56 am)
Replying to: phantom338 (Nov 24, 2008 8:35 am) I would recommend an Amsoil EA012 oil filter. It's nanofiber and the highest quality filter you can buy.
