#2803 of 2838 Mileage for G35 by jdonnee1 Aug 22, 2009 (11:04 am)
My son is looking for a G35 Coupe. I see plenty of used ones in his price range with between 50,000 and 80,000 miles. Should I have any concerns with this amount of mileage from a maintenance standpoint.

Replying to: jdonnee1 (Aug 22, 2009 11:04 am) Not if the car has been maintained. The 2004's had some brake issues, but I have an 2005 with 60,000 miles and have only replaced the rear brakes once, with the fronts having half of the original pads still OK.   I also changed some belts and filters and have had regular oil changes.

Replying to: jdonnee1 (Aug 22, 2009 11:04 am) Have a 2004 w/ 72,000 mi. Have done break pads once, and rear tires about every 22-24,000 miles. I'm a fairly conservative driver. Other than that, the normal maintenance stuff. Been a trouble free car.

That's real good!!!!!,the only things I would suggest is:change pads & rotors to after-market ones!!!,OEM on this car wear-out ALOT faster than other cars,I changed my car's rotors and pads to:Hawk HPS pads,and EBC rotors,not very expensive and will hold-up alot longer than OEM pads & rotors PLUS alot better braking and alot less dust!!!

Replying to: raizelgs (Aug 23, 2009 7:33 pm) I might have to disagree w/you on that brakes issue!!,I have 2004 Infiniti G35 sedan I bought in Jan.2008,had the dealer put new front brake pads and new rotors on and a year & 1/2 later the pads were worn down almost 70%!!!!.I drive around town alot that does increase brake use alot more.Remember also these brakes bite really nice!!,may-be that's WHY they wear out alot quicker than other cars,I changed my brake pads & rotors to:Hawk HPS pads & EBC rotors since that change there is alot less brake dust on my wheels & alot better stopping power,I'll be checking these pads too,soon as I rotate my tires at next interval.
#2808 of 2838 Moonroof Not Closing by mrwatts Aug 25, 2009 (6:22 am)
I attempted to open the moonroof, and it made a grinding sounds. When closing it made the same sound. But didn't close completely, is there a manual way to close it without having to open the headliner? Replies to this message: darrinzramz (Aug 25, 2009 6:44 am)

Replying to: mrwatts (Aug 25, 2009 6:22 am) what year is the car??,If it's under warranty(which I assume it may not be!)be carefull !!!,does it sound like a motor problem or maybe dirt or sand in the track!!???,does it move smoothly when closing or does it stagger or jump a little when closing??.If you are not sure you really should let the dealer service it only!!!,I have an extended warranty on my car to protect me from things like this that might pop-up!!!,Darrin
#2810 of 2838 Under Engine Shield by joen05 Sep 04, 2009 (6:00 pm)
I drove over something today that created a hole in the engine shield (arg.. stupid tailgaters!!!). Does anyone know how much that would cost to replace on a 2008 G35x?   I'm also bringing it to the service center to see if any other damage was caused....

Replying to: caballero1 (Dec 12, 2004 11:38 pm) Did you ever find out what the rattle/clatter/ valve noise was. Mine has just started doing it.   Thanks,   Eric
#2812 of 2838 G35 Sedan Transmission Problem by eddierae Oct 02, 2009 (5:04 am)
Hey everyone, I've been having an issue lately with the automatic shifting of my 03 G35 Sedan and I can't seem to figure out what the problem is.    Basically what is happening is that around 30 mph or so, or slightly thereafter, my car upshifts, but the upshift is hard and not fluid at all. The car almost jolts itself, and I can feel vibrations in the peddle from the engine. This usually only occurs when I am accelerating slowly. Fast acceleration there is no problem. I was reading online that this has something do with the programming of the automatic transmission.   The things is I don't know much about cars but I know it doesn't feel right when I'm driving. It feels like the engine is straining to get up to 40mph. Once its going fast its fine. You can see where the gage jumps to 3000rpm and then falls to 2000 rpm.    Does anyone know what might be the cause of this problem? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
