Will the G35X be as good in the snow as a Subaru? by carmen8
Sep 27, 2008 (10:44 am)

I was looking at a turbo 2009 Forester, but I'm not hot on an SUV.
 
Mainly, I really want something that is good in snow and rain - although I have no back roads to drive on so ground clearance is not really a factor. I live in Rochester NY and we seem to have slippery roads most of the year!
 
Also, I know tires make a huge difference, so let's just hold that constant. (I use Nokia WRT tires now and I love them.)
 
That said, I just looked at the G35X this morning and I love it. But I know the AWD technology is substantially different from Subaru's.
 
Does anybody know just how good it might be in the snow?
 
Thanks for your ideas.

Ignoring tires.....I think the ground clearance difference between the 2 is substantial. Also....the price difference is VERY substantial. Have you checked out the rdx?

Took delivery on my G35x last night and it is fabulous. I may have been sitting in traffic this morning, but I had the BEST seat in the house.
 
Wow -- Opera on that sound system. AMAZING!
 
I LOVE THIS CAR!!!

ikay, this is the deal,
 
15,5k miles on a 2006 g35x. had some minor body work done and breaks checked for wear and excess dust. i'm told that my rear breaks are worn down by about 75%.
 
i drive normally, no harsh conditions. what the hell is going on that the breaks are gone?

Since the X is auto it's unlikely you drove with the E-brake on (Did you?)
Sounds fishy....dealer wanting to make a buck maybe? Fronts were fine though?

Premium or Regular Gasoline in G35xAWD by leonius

Want to buy a 2008 Infiniti G35. I know that premium gas is recommended, but is it required? What actually does the G35 owners manual say. The salesman said that I can use either type of gas without me asking him.
 
I have a Nissan Maxima which also recommends Premium, but the manual also says that regular 87 octane can be used. I have used regular exclusively in the Maxima without any effect on the engine (never a ping has been heard).

Contrary to what you might hear..you will not damage the engine by using lower octane fuel - Engine management will retard the timing and make the A/F mixure richer to cool the chamber. You will lose performance and fuel economy as a result of that. If those are not significant for you?? You will find many many many discussions on this board and others about this subject, so lets not start another redundant one here..

Thanks. Sorry about the post, but I just wanted to know what the Infiniti owners manual actually said about the gasoline octane without going back to the dealer.

I believe it's "required" unless you don't care about the performance.
