I think it was around $200 but can't remember for sure. That included removing the radio and re-installing -- amazingly involved on a G35 (and I've taken many radios out of cars in my life). I can't say enough as to how professional these guys were in every respect -- I know enough about electronics "to be dangerous." Just top-notch.

After speaking with and independent repair shop-- He said to go and plead my case in person to the Infinity dealer where I purchased the car. I printed out the recall notice for 2003 and went. The audio finisher was replaced in 03 under that recall. So it lasted 5 years.... anyway the repair at the dealer for rebuilding the audio finisher and replacing the bose changer was going to rum almost $1300. I asked if there was anything they could do to help me out. The sevice manager gave me the card of the place where they outsource the work. I had it repaired there the next day for $425. Master Electronics in Duluth is a great place. The owner has experience with this exact problem, says he fixes one a week at least. He rebuilds the audio finisher (power supply) and replaces the CD changer. He believes that the CD changer is the root of the problem. Seems when it goes bad there is a chain reaction of electrical issues. Always starting with the CD changer and progressing toward the ac and radio controls. Then the battery drain begins -- and he has even seen it progress to ignition problems. So we shall see - It has been a week.

I live in the Orland area and I am having the same problems with my radio/ac controls. It is on day 4 of totally not working. I would love to know the name of the place that you went to here to have it fixed. I will drive over to it tomorrow.

I already posted the business information (Orlando). Go to the previous page in the thread. As I've said, they do an outstanding job -- extremely professional.

I just called them and they said they deal with the problem so much that they wanted me to try a few things to fix it before bring it in. I was instructed to do a reset by disconnecting the battery. It was very kind of them, but at the same time very upsetting that Infiniti has not stepped up and taken care of the problem. We bought this car used and love it, but I am worried about buying a second one. I guess that its good for Factory Car Stereo Repair, gives them a lot of business. Thanks again for the info.

Nick can you post the info for the radio repair place in Orlando. I'm in Greenville,SC so it wouldn't be bad for me to send mine off.

I am so glad I found this message board. Although I must admit, I am about a year late. I am on my second battery, have had too many jump starts to count, and have been dealing with all the symptoms for over a year now. It started with the 6-disc changer and the CD err, the battery drain issue, and then the ac and radio blanking out on me. This has been extremely frustrating and I am amazed that my dealership has not just told me what the issue is versus recommending all this stuff that did not address the issue. Anyway, I will now look for a new radio which seems like it is the source of the problem as well as address the circuit board issue behind the radio while they are in there. Anyone know of a reputable technichian in Chicago (BESIDES Orland Infiniti!">)
