My 2006 M35 has had this issue since new (tho only~15 degrees warmer difference) & I've gotten the same lame response from the dealer. I like to turn the compressor off when not needed in order to get a bit better milage & all previous cars I've had don't do this.
 
Have you or anyone else been able to get this corrected??

#1348 of 1362 continued whining by BMW540

Jun 04, 2011 (9:24 am)

Long story short - I have a 06 M45 that started burning oil and had a driveling whine beginning at about 45k. Infiniti replaced engine and has put 3 rear diffs. in the car. Originally the whine sounded like the classic ring and pinion noise, but was mainly noticeable at about 42 and 82 especially under deceleration. Now, while the car will have some whine under power when accelerating from 75 to 85, it has kind of a wurr noise when you let off the throttle, but only at those speeds and especially at 82ish. I did pursue the lemon law, but am kind of at a stall. Infiniti even sent a nissan rep out but he said he could not hear it. I drove him on the freeway near the dealer which was noisy. He did however replace the seat track which was loose. The head tech said before he could hear the noise but now could not. There's got to be someone who can figure what is wrong with this car as everything else is OK. Infiniti wants to settle for chump change. Any Ideas? I live in LA. thanks Bmw540

Hi i have got a 2006 Infinity m35x 117.000 miles on it , im a second owner and not sure when the last time trans fluid was changed . The car shifts smooth up and down no problem , but when switching from D to R i feel car jerk a little and pool , you can also see car lift up on neutral and lower down when in gear, it gets little annoying inside since you can really feel it yank you back or forward. Im not sure if it is normal to those cars or its my trans... or brakes are nod good. One more thing i cant figure out is the mirrors turning when in reverse , both of them go way too far down and start skipping gears and clicking loudly and when set back to drive dont come back all the way , any way around it? Thank you.

#1351 of 1362 Location of low beam Headlight Ballast by BMW540

I need to replace my low beam ballast and possibly the bulb. Is it all accessible thru the fender well or is it in another location? Thanks for info

The problem is probably a faulty fuel gauge, many people got suckered into replacing the sending unit which was really never the issue.
 
The NHTSA is currently investigating Infiniti regarding this specific problem. I believe that if Infiniti doesn't recall the instrument cluster very, very soon they will loose control on containing the bad press and their reputation.
 
I suggest everyone affected by this should go to NHTSA Web-site and file a complaint.

#1354 of 1362 No radio after a new battery?? by jeffry

Jul 17, 2012 (5:44 pm)

AAA just replaced the battery on my 2006 M35(w/ nav system) & now the radio doesn't work. I push the "Radio" button & nothing happens, CD works fine & apparently everything else though seat memory needs resetting. At 1st FM stations would work but none of other the radio/SAT functions. I suspected that I might have to redo my presets but it appears that the whole radio function is out. Any bright ideas?? I don't see anything in my manual or in these posts re the issue. Thanks.

If the radio does not work with the new battery ,put the old battery back in.

That makes absolutely no sense. The main reason batteries are replaced is because they no longer work. They're dead. They can't make the car start. Putting the old battery back in would cause EVERYTHING not to work, including the radio.
