2008 QX56 Front A/C Problem by jerosado
Jan 13, 2008 (8:28 am)

I just got a brand new 4x4 QX56 out of the dealer yesterday. Today after driving 10 miles and parking, when I re-started the engine I noticed the the front A/C unit began to swtich on & off intermittently. A few minutes later the front fan and A/C unit stopped working. I noticed a faint "burned-circuit" smell inside the cabin at the time. I was not able to restart the A/C unit. The back unit seems to be working fine, yet not enough to keep us comfortable. Has anybody seen something like this? Any ideas? I checked the fuse boxes but there isn't a slot for the "front- A/C unit or blower" and the information in the manual is scarce. Thank you. -Julio

Whoa. That should not happen. We just purchased a brand new QX56 on the 12/31 and no problems at all thus far (except the salesperson was/is a jerk). I would definitely return the truck immediately for a new truck or to have it repaired immediately. Let us know what happens.

Thank you for your solidarity It didn't take me long, I took the damaged unit back to the dealer for a new one. Sure enough, I got one in 30 min. Later I was told that this unit was taken back to the sales floor after 4 hrs at the repair shop. And that the malfunction was due to a couple blown-out fuses. I'm still thinking why did it happen? A voltage regulation problem, or a short circuit of some kind? Who will ever know? I honestly doubt the “fuse story" very much as I finally got a chance to check all the fuses, one by one, before turning the unit back in, and I couldn't find anything wrong with them. The salesperson that took care of our case was very supportive and helped us to get out of the problem without arguments very quickly (A+)! - Thank you, JR

Exchange? by keg97

^^^ So they essentially exchanged you a new QX with no issues? Wow...very impressive from your dealer. I would have gone in expecting a battle and been blown over with a feather when they did not buck me!!!
 
Congrats!

QX56 suspension = horrible ride by infqx56
Jan 26, 2008 (9:47 am)

Hello, I own 06' qx56 and also leasing a fx35 and was wondering if anyone else isn't satisfied with the ride quality on the qx56. I've been in a scion with better ride quality. I love my truck but the suspension isn't what I expect it from day 1. I had the dealer check my suspension and was told its fine (told me yeah thats air suspension). As i'm traveling on the highway doing 50-65mph going over bumps or imperfection on the road the car would jerk and rattle to one side. Is this normal??? What could be the problem??? Also recently as I go over a speed bump or if the car goes up a small bump or hill on the road and the front end slams down (with my windows open) I hear something crumpling, sounds like a 2 liter plastic bottle being steped on(crushed). Has anyone else experience this??? One more thing ... driving with your window down 2inches or so...does your window rattle as if it felt loose???

memory seats by robert

I posted in the old thread, but thought I'd post here as more traffic. I have a 05 QX that the seats don't always return to postion. It never happened for the first 1-1 1/2 yrs and is increasing in frequency. I have thought about whether I hit seat adjust buttons when exiting or entering, but since it never happened in the beginning, I can't believe I'm hitting them that frequently now. Happens 3-4 times per week but of course never at the dealer.....thoughts???

Daytime Running Lights by benbo
Apr 11, 2008 (11:26 am)

I currently own a GMC Yukon and a Ford F-150. Both have day time running lights, came on Yukon, had installed on F-150. I own a 08 QX56 and wonder if running lights can be installed. I read , rather let me say, I scanned , the owners manual and I don't believe that QX56s sold in the U.S. come so equipped. Question is whether any readers had running lights installed after purchase.
I just turned 1200 miles and I really enjoy the car when my wife lets me get behind the wheel. Both my F-150 and Q56 are black which sort of led me to order the Zaino Kit, for $86.00 , to see if I get the POP! that readers speak of. I must now build up my courage, stamina, and what else I need muster up to attack a 6 hour task.

6 hours to Zaino? I did the dawn, clay, to z-5 on a Yukon Denali in little over an hour. Course if you're doing a 6 pack an hour I can understand why it would take you 6 hours.
