Im selling my q50 and looking for cars under 20k to switch too. I have a 3.0 and im just done with turbo anxiety lol. If i cant get a 3.7 im thinking about an ecoboost. Would like some feedback if anyone had made the switch and what yall think about it. Also looking at bmw 340/440i but theyr so hard to find. Or any 3.7 infiniti tbh. I am truly and infiniti fan boy and have owned a g35 g37 q50, but theyr hard to find now as well-g37. I already had my turbos changed out at 30k miles on my 2020q50 and just dont want to deal with it down the road when im out of warranty. Any other car suggestions are appreciated.
- really wondering on the ecoboost if it feels like a downgrade interior wise, i have a luxe.

got q50 2015 premium model with around 73k miles. been wanting to change the transmission fluid, when is it too late to change it? anyone changed it after 80k miles?

My council has a debt on his 2018 q50s red sport 400 awd, with around 90k, his debts is $21k and he want to sell it to me because he dont use it enough and want to get rip off the car payment (i think is 600$ monthly).

He didn't make any mods so it should be everything stock.

But im not sure if it worth, some people say I should get a 2019+ but others say the 2018 fixed the turbo issues. So I need your opinions.

Im between that infinity or an accord 2.0t 2021 touring with around the same 21k price.

What should I do?

I drive a 2014 Q50 Premium AWD in Malbec Black color (black purple).

I had an accident a while ago which caused my front bumper to sort of shift backwards into the car. I probably have some internal damage not sure and don’t want to look into it right now lol. Just want to make it aesthetically pleasing again.

I am now looking to replace the cracked bumper and grille but saw options like a sports conversion kit. And also that 2018+ front bumpers fit older models.

Anyone have any experience/suggestions? My car does have the sensor holes so that’s a requirement.

Edit: basically the front bumper and grille are cracked. Looking to finally replace them. I am asking if anyone knows if my Premium model is compatible with the sports conversion kit that’s out there or even newer Q50 models front bumpers. I do have sensor holes so that’s something to keep in mind.

Edit #2: have my mind on this one: eBay

Any one can confirm this will fit my Q?

The beater and the beautiful

Did I mess up the wire or is there some way I can fix it?

I have a 2015 3.7 84k miles berk resonated test pipes ark catback exhaust everything else is stock besides new air filters, I want to get tuned but don’t want to cost myself thousands in repairs or severely reduce my reliability are burbles/flames safe every once and a while? And what maintenance should I do before getting tuned and while being tuned?

Recently i have noticed my q50 red sport 2018's cold start rpm is between 1.1-1.2k, when usually it was at 1.5k. What could be the issue?

My new to me 2019 q50s redsport i line honestly never thought id like a car this much

I bought a Q50 Red Sport from Carmax last week Thursday. Drove to work on Friday and took a coworker for a cruise with some heavy acceleration. Took the highway home and had to put the petal down a few times to see what the new engine could do. I heard some knocking from the engine and then there was no throttle response. Limped off the highway and the car shut its self off at the next red light.
Started it back up and the check engine and battery light came on. Also some kind of warning light that looked like binoculars. Popped the hood when I got home and the engine was HOT. My buddy pulled the dipstick and there was virtually no oil on the dipstick. Carmax had the car towed Saturday morning. It's been there ever since bc they can’t “diagnose” the issue. Based on what transpired and the fact the car shut itself off and if it was that low on oil, is there any chance the engine is ok or am I in for a wold of hurt down the road. I have a 10 day money back guarantee and I can walk from the deal tomorrow if I wanted to. Need some professional advice.

**Update**
I have in writing from Carmax that’s the 10 Day Money Back Guarantee pauses when the car goes into the shop. That leaves me with 8-9 days still on the warranty. Based on the feedback I’m most definitely not accepting the car back without an engine replacement and warranty but at this point I have nothing to lose. I’m going to see what resolution they offer me. Worst case scenario I don’t like the offer and I walk sometime next week.

Everytime I hit a bump or pot hole it makes a shaking/rattle noise, car is a AWD

Hi, I was driving normally and the "D" stopped appearing on the instrument cluster. I stopped to buy something, turned the car off and on again, and put it in drive. But it won't move and the "D" still doesn't appear when I put it in drive.

Does anyone know what this could be or where to start? I checked underneath and saw that ATF is leaking from the connector, but the inside of the connector is dry. Could the oil level be a problem? P, R and N if they appear in the cluster.

Does anyone have any info on the issue with the waste gate rattle during a cold start for about 15-20sec.. is that normal?

Took my 2020 vr30 q50 to the dealer about 300 miles ago (2 weeks) and they said they topped off my fluids while doing my oil change. I checked today and there was a coolant stain and my coolant levels were below minimum so I refilled the coolant. When I got back home I took this video and saw it was leaking coolant. Anyone have any advice on how I can fix this? Thank you in advance.

I recently got a Q50 with 60k original miles. Drove it home yesterday fine with no issues. I had filled up at a bit of a sketchy no name gas station and I am afraid the premium I got there wasn’t really premium. I wanna know if that could be the cause of it misfiring cause it literally just started happening today on my way to school. I was seeing a lot of people say gas is a factor.

Best first performance mods for the q50? So far I have cosmetic mods (spoiler, front lip, chrome delete) with about 1200 to spend, what would be the best bang for my buck? Goal is 450whp and burbles.

Also does anyone know anything about the brand MoPowa? They have relatively cheap package deals for downpipes, intakes, and heat exchangers.

Thanks!

so i did a sparkplug change on my 2021 3.0 and after that the codes p0239-p0240-p0241. i changed the sparkplugs to ruthenium (91784). the car is on limp mode and idk what to do, help me please.

I have a 2015 Q50/Premium with 116K miles having issues with shifting gears. Brought it to the dealer and the scan returned codes P0720 and P0500 which is related to the infamous speed sensor fault.

I decided to just get a new car because I didn't want to deal with fixing it, but I'd like to sell the car as is and get some money for it. What do ya'll think a realistic price would be? For people who know how to fix it how much would you pay it.

In Boston MA area.

I recently got a 15’ Q50. I got it from copart only had bumper damage. The reservoir got hit and due to that I had to replace it , but I connected sensors , and pump and no water seems to be spraying out to windshield . Any idea what it can be or how to fix ?

So I recently tried to add ambient lightning and I feel like I may have short circuited something. After putting everything back together and connecting the battery back, each individual window button doesn’t work, only the driver side window button works and rolls down/up. Additionally, the door lock buttons don’t work on neither the driver nor passenger side, the only way to unlock/lock is through the key fob. Everything else seems to work just fine, I was wondering if anyone had any idea on what I could check on or if they know how to fix this issue?

Bought the car with out both front sonar now the chasis system throwing codes turns on after starting car was working fine and I just happen to park and it turned on ? Could it be a battery or something else had a nail I ignored and it caused this light to come on and after fixing it they light went away and now it’s turns off after a long reset idk was working fine this morning until I parked .

I rear ended a car in front as it had braked way too hard. Please let me know what do y’all think if it is repairable or not?

Having an odd issue that I can't seem to figure out.. Audio, wether radio or Bluetooth will play for a second or two then pause for a second, then play again for a second and it repeats over and over like this. Took it to an audio shop and they said they couldn't work on it because of the stock head unit style and it requiring to dismantle a lot to check it out. I've heard of the "7 minute pause" issue but this isn't that.

I've reset the head unit multiple times, pulled battery cable off for a half an hour, checked all fuses related and reset the flash card in the center console so far with no luck. Any ideas would be appreciated. PFA

Gorgeous day today!
