I heard they had problems with 03 and 04 models, that is why i waited till 05 to buy it. I guess i should feel lucky

Replying to: rosie108 (Oct 30, 2006 9:54 am) BTW, I have an '05 X with 38K miles. I'm on the original rotors, never resurfaced, but I did change the pads at around 22K miles for PBR Axxis ones to have less dust. The original pads still showed about 5mm of pad left. It was a good change for me. There is virtually no brake dust and the performance is superb for my driving style. |

Dealer just replaced my front pads and rotors under the old warranty for 03/04s. SA said the new pads are better than the new. Well, I don't know what better is. They do stop great. I did 'bed them in' to avoid any glazing, etc. Made a world of difference when I did have to stop quick. Now about 1000 miles later I notice the same scoring on the rotors I saw on the old ones. Not THAT bad, not yet. The rears are still almost like knew. He said 6 mils left on the rear pads and recommends check them again in 6 months. When the rears go bad I will likely just put in new pads myself. And unless the rotors are bad, just leave them as is. When the fronts go I will get my own aftermarket rotors and pads. I think the stock are fine up to the point you have to pay for them.

hello, I need to get new brakes and rotars for my G35 2004 Sedan. As most of you know, the brakes on these cars don't last long and Infiniti should be ashamed of itself for not taking more responsibility. Nonetheless, I need to replace them. First question, what is the cost for a a set of four new brakes and rotors from the dealer? Second question, can I get a better price with the same quality from another store such as Sears? Thanks! |

Replying to: my_g35_sedan (Nov 14, 2006 12:18 pm) If you can find a very reputable tire/brake/alignment shop I am sure you could do better cost-wise. They will replace with an OEM or equivalent rotor, and probably give you some choice as to the type of pad you want. You may want to get some quotes against the dealership's. Personally, not too hot on getting work done at Sears. I guess I am one of those scared off by the big service problem they had some years ago, although I never used them. Don't know where you live, but if anywhere near the SF Bay Area you can hardly go wrong with Wheel Works. Ask friends, neighbors for referrals. An independent mechanic specializing in Nissan/Infiniti cars, another one. |

Replying to: angryinct (Nov 16, 2006 2:10 pm) Fortunately there are less expensive and likely better alternatives the next time around. There are probably not too many 03 or 04s left that have not gone over 36K miles or 3 years, but if there are you should take advantage of it. |
