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

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.

The facts are real:   less engine wear less volatility purity prolonged use higher amount of detergents   I can discuss this with you in detail if you want to call me or email me. First, however, please watch this discovery channel special on synthetic motor oils.   lube job
#2770 of 2835 2008 G35xS break problem so soon? by paulo6 May 12, 2009 (4:14 am)
Took my 08GxS for 7500mile service at the dealer. I also casually mentioned to them that I have been noticing a slight vibration when the brakes are applied and I really should not with an Infiniti with only 7500 miles. Well I got a call back telling me that the rotors (both back and front) turned out to be out of round F-0.0021 and R-.0034. So they resurfaced under warranty. The car drives fine now. My questions are 1) The obvious, has aanyone experienced this so soon? 2) I am told this is NOT covered under warranty after 12K! - I might fight that if it happens again since it happend earlier. 3) What real impact will this have on overall break life expectancy   Thanks Replies to this message: scottm123 (May 28, 2009 11:21 am)

Replying to: paulo6 (May 12, 2009 4:14 am) I had to have my rotors turned at almost 20K (under warranty) for the same reason. I was told if the warping came back while under warranty, they'd replace the rotors. As most people know, turning a warped rotor is only a temporary bandaid. The warping came back at 30K and the rotors were replaced with no questions asked.   If and when these things go south again, I'll be replacing them with a higher end aftermarket rotor. No more OEM for me once these things are done.
#2772 of 2835 Running exterior and interior lights out by g35_lights May 28, 2009 (11:55 am)
The headlights work when turned on, but the brake lights, other exterior night lights and interior night lighting does not come on when switched on. I checked the fuses and all were in good shape. Basically, the only lights that go on at night are the headlights.   What could be the problem?
#2773 of 2835 Thinking of doing it by zenithfac Jun 06, 2009 (7:01 pm)
Hello everyone, i'm currently thinking of getting a wrecked 04 G35 coupe with 45,000+ miles on it. I checked the parts needed for the car and professionally it'll cost about $2420 to get the parts(i.e the expensive way)...currently being sold for $4000. It actually runs fine, front damage, side door and back spoiler. Do you guys think i should go for it?

Replying to: zenithfac (Jun 06, 2009 7:01 pm) Well let's do the math here:   A clean used 2004 like you're buying is probably worth $16,000 in today's market. Being a wreck it will no doubt carry a rebuilt or salvage title, so that will cut value by 1/3, thus we are retail at about $10,500.   You are paying $4000 for it, plus let's say $2500 in parts with tax, etc. So you're in $6500 with no labor yet.   On the face of it, without seeing the car, AND even with presuming you're doing all the collision repair and paint yourself----it doesn't seem worth the trouble. If you have to hire someone to do some of the work, it definitely isn't worth it, in my opinion.   The only scenario I could see this working out for you would be a) if the car were not salvage title and b) if you did all the collision and paint yourself. THEN you'd have a much cheaper G35 than you could buy retail. But both those criteria have to be in place at the same time---no salvage, you doing all the work.   Otherwise, my two cents is FORGET IT!
