I recently purchased a 2008 G35x sedan with about 25000 miles. Everything went great and smooth. The car has great power, especially when make turns. However, I noticed that when I drive at high speed on highway, the road noise is pretty high and the car literally jumps up and down when there are small pot holes or if the surface condition is not that great. I know there has been some issue with the wheels on the 08 G35. Just want to know if it is normal on those 08 G35x sedans?

I had to post a message regarding my 2008 G Sedan Sport after reading everyone's posts about their purchases. I bought it used as everyone else has mentioned and what made it such a great purchase was the mileage...10850. That's right, just under 11k. I did all the proper checks along with the carfax report and it was legit. Considering I've put over 7k on it within 7 months, I guess I'm doing okay driving wise, but really wonder what the previous owner did with the car. The one thing that is really perplexing is the tread on the tires seem very low (looking to replace within the next 2 months or so). Checked the tire info and they were the factory installed tires, so wondering if those are the best tires for the G. They are the Bridgestones OEM. Anyone recommending another brand? Added a couple of photos, so not sure why default pic appears.

My Bridgestone OEMs wore out unusually fast: less than 10,000 for one tire, just under 20,000 for the other three. My service station thought that was fast but not unusual: they've seen tires and brakes wear out more quickly than usual on the Infiniti G and certain BMW models. Not sure if the tires aren't the right match for the G or what else is going on.

Radio was working fine--and then the presets accessed on the steering wheel or on the screen do not work properly. Those buttons on the radio itself (1-6) do still work. Others have this problem? Get it fixed?

Hi everyone, I'm a new driver of 08 G35x w/o navigation. I tried to find the 3.5mm AUX to hook up the Bose with my cell phone (with 3.5mm AUX) so that the car can play the mp3 in my cell phone. Strangely I can't find a 3.5mm AUX in the car...None of the 3 AUX jacks can fit a 3.5mm cable...I would appreciate if anyone can help me on this. Thanks!

You need to get a RCA to 3.5mm conversion wire. You can buy it at radio shack or best buy for 10-15 bucks. It will have two RCA plugs on one end and a single 3.5mm connection on the other.Just plug the RCA ends into the red and white outlets in the G35. Leave the yellow alone . Hope this helps.

Tires that came standard on my 2007 G35 (Bridgestone RE040) and 2008 M35 (Goodyear RSA) were the worst tires I ever had. Recently purchased Kumho ECSTA 4X (225/45/18Frt/245/45/18Rear)for the G35 and Michelin Primacy MXV4 (245/45/18) and what a big difference. Ride, handling, noise and stability were much improved especially the MXV4. Price was great for the Kumho ECSTA 4X through Tirerack and got a nice package deal for the MXV4 with local Infiniti dealership in Virginia Beach.
