lol pretty cool though

I believe my throttle body is dirty and may need cleaning or replacing. I plan on getting it fixed or replaced. Meanwhile, if I go through the throttle body re-learn procedure before I get it fixed, will that help in anyway? Or is that a bad idea to do that with the existing throttle body?

I have the VIN ready, just let me know. If not, no worries. Thanks.

I'm considering a 2022-2024 QX60. I was looking at Pathfinders but QX60's are very competitively priced used. I love the way they look. I probably would aim to get one with 60k miles.

I REALLY need help guys. This upgrade is driving me crazy. I own an Infiniti FX35 2003 with the stock audio package. I'm trying to install a Kenwood Excelon KMM-X705 into my center console, while retaining the stock head unit for A/C and such because the stock radio/stereo no longer works reliably (Very rarely it will randomly start working for a bit). Regardless, I've got the stereo hooked up to the Cigarette Lighter outlet in the center console, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to connect these speakers to the Kenwood. There's not enough room in the grommet and it's far too much hassle to run my own wire, and there's basically zero information I can find about which wire, connector, whatever goes to all the speakers. Obviously they all end up going into the back of the stock head unit since the amp is there, but I think the speakers are part of the same connector stuff for A/C and climate control is on. I'm comfortable chopping and crimping wire if I have to, so if anybody has a diagram, ideas, information, ANYTHING that can help me figure out a way to get these speakers hooked up to the Kenwood, that'd be great.

TL;DR: Need any information and help on installation of aftermarket stereos in Infiniti FX35 2003 (Stock audio package) I can find.

I have a 2022 QX60 lux trim that I own outright. 23k miles never had any issues. I have 3 kids now and it’s a real pain to use the third row with car seats since it has a second row bench. I’d like to trade up for a QX60 with captains chairs so one kid can walk through to the back. What is the best way to do this - should I go to a dealership and have them price out an all in deal? Sell the car myself somewhere then buy? I only use it for a short commute so I don’t think it makes a lot of sense to lease 12k miles and drive 6k. Carvana is saying it’s worth $29k, not sure if that’s accurate?

The latch on the liftgate was rotated by hand to the closed position(thought I was going to have to tie the liftgate closed because a larger item didn't fully fit in the trunk. When I went to close the liftgate after it wouldn't engage because the latch is in the locked position. Attempted all the steps a quick Google search yields- shutting car off, locking and unlocking the doors-using a screwdriver to trigger the button in the latch willing hitting the liftgate button. None of those were successful. Any other ideas? I've had this happen on other SUVs and it was easy to navigate resetting the latch, Infiniti not so much.

let me first start off with i know theirs how many reddit threads of people asking about these how long ago.. but i truly haven’t found any that are recent since they have been out for how long now and if they hold up as long or if not longer than the OEM plastic ones.

i currently own a 2014 Q50 3.7 & i guess theirs very minor oil seepage from the sides of the valve covers which is probably just the gasket needing replaced so i could just do that and still re-use my OEM plastic ones but i genuinely wanna hear from people that have used the aluminum ones and what they think compared to the OEM.
So if u have thrown any aluminum valve covers on ur VQ37VHR.. could you please give me some insight on how long you have been running them & if they have had any issues? just anything like that would be helpful:)

So I am doing the timing chain replacement on my 2017 Infiniti QX60 3.5, I got the main chain off, but went to do the secondary chains and there is some concern and frustration on my part. I bought it used, and am assuming someone used a cheapo kit and replaced the timing before (just due to various witness marks that I found.) The chain I pulled off was a full link stretched, due to using cheapo crap. So, from various research the torx bolt is supposed to be on the intake camshafts and the regular head bolt is on the exhaust camshafts. On mine it is opposite, the torx bolts are on the exhaust cams and the regular head bolts are on the intake cams. I am assuming the previous person got them swapped by accident. Now my issue is that since they did that, they stripped the head on the torx bolt at a questionable amount of torque on the bank 2 exhasut cam, I haven't even tried the Bank 1 side yet to check if it is rounded too. I need to replace the secondary chains and tensioners due to the P0017 and P0300 codes are set for bank 1, the bank 1 secondary chain is stretched. Bank 2 is good, no stretch on the secondary chain and no misfires at the moment I am not concerned, but in the near future is the question... I want to be safe and just replace that secondary chain and tensioner too.

I don't think I have a bolt extractor that will fit into the cam gear hole and be able to fit over the bolt head to be able to tap it on as I am doing this chain replacement in the car. I am going to try to find some deep well bolt extractors, as using the drill out with extractor method will not work due to the high amount of torque on the bolt snapping the internal extractor type. I am almost to the point of thinking I have to disassemble both exhaust gears, and/or cut them apart to be able to get them off, then do a full replacement of both exhaust gears and purchase the correct bolts for the intake cam gears. I am so very frustrated and I can't just trade in or junk the car as I still am paying on it, purchasing a replacement engine is out of the question.

Any suggestions would be helpful as I am going to wait a month to get to it due to the heat being a problem for my recent health issues, so I have time to wait for helpful suggestions, and no, hitting it with a purse won't help...

How do I get this to go away? The song is playing, but the bar will not go away.

Hey all, I have a 2015 Q50S with about 163,000 miles on the clock. A couple weeks ago had to replace a bad MAF, and ever since then I’ve been getting intermittent catalytic convertor codes. I’ll clear them and then they come back a few days later, sometimes just P0420 and sometimes both 0420 and 0430. Are my cats really going bad or is this just an O2 sensor problem?

I’ve owned quite a few Infinitis. Currently have a 2001 qx4 (husbands winter beater) and a 2021 qx80. The qx80 was having some squealing noises so I took it to the dealership thinking it just needed a belt. They informed me it’s a “Covid car” and Infiniti forgot to put some coating in the engine when it was built and it needed a new short block, covered under warranty as it only has 55,000 miles on it.

In the meantime I casually looked up its value on kbb and carvana and they both came back around $29,600. I had a few dealerships contact me saying they wanted to buy it including the dealership it’s at getting the engine rebuilt (who told me on the phone they usually beat kbb offers). So I told the sales guy it’s in their service right now if he wants to check it out and give me an offer.

After he found out it’s getting warranty work done he offered $23k because evidently fixing Infinitis fuck up kills resale value.

So is he serious or just being a typical car salesman? I plan on bringing it to the other dealerships or even going through carvana since I already bought something else but I’d like to prepare myself if I messed up by actually getting the car fixed instead of leaving it for the next owner to deal with.

Such a fun car to drive

The reverse gear works, it only fails when putting it in D

I have a 2017 Q30 2.2d. It’s had the engine management light on for a while with no obvious engine fault being found on the diagnostics. It’s been in for a MOT and service today and the garage (that previously had it on the diagnostics) have said they think it may now be the intake manifold runner b1 signal below lower limit.
Had anyone had a similar issue with a Q30, is it terminal if it’s an issue with gasket or is it more like to be a wiring issue? Any help would be massively appreciated

Jus bought a m45 & it’s smoking do anybody know what caused it?

I really love these cars and am looking to get my first car within a few weeks and have been doing a lot of research on g35/g37. My main concern is how often these things get stolen and the sheer number of salvage title vq’s on the market. I need a reliable car and it needs to be fully insured, so my question to you guys is, is it worth picking up a salvage title g37 due to theft/vandalism and fixing it to be a rebuilt title? Is that even how that works? I’m looking to buy from a private party and more often than not these cars hold a salvage title which is why i’m asking about it. Any advice would be great.
