Certified Used Infiniti Q50 Problems

[@thatdevonguy4887]

Get a oil catch can. Keep an eye on coolant levels. And when i bought my Q60 i replaced the belt also. $50 and easy project. They chew up belts quick on these cars.

Thanks Devon! My Coolant does seem a little low. It's right on the line when checking it cold.

[@thatdevonguy4887]

@@TradingCarMechanic which resivour? Left (smaller) is for heat exchanger/intercoolers. Right larger is for radiator and engine.

[@TradingCarMechanic]

Devon you're a wealth of information. I was wondering which tank was the radiator. They are both right on the minimum line when checked cold. Thanks bud!

2018 and under came from the factory with a misaligned a/c compressor pulley which would wear the belt out prematurely… Dealer will fix it for free 🤙🏼 I agree about the catch can

How do you know when cabin filter needs replacing? Gr8 informative video thanks Is this a 2020?

[@TradingCarMechanic]

Mines a 2019. Sorry to say, the only way to be sure is to pull it out and visually inspect it. Holding it up to the sun or shining a flashlight through it is the best method. How fast it clogs up is determined by the area the vehicle operates in. If it really gets plugged up you 'll notice a reduction in air flow.

@mgittelman thanks alot for your reply. I just bought my 2020 Q50. Demonstrator only had 84 klm on it. Im from toronto Canada, thats around 40 miles...

Control arm broke and made me hit a curb, cv joint broke, rim broke, full circular crack on rotor, fender bent by tire, etc but guess what ? Them run flats no joke 😂😂😂 tire was the only thing not damaged 😂😂😂

[@nickskolsky2560]

Typically people take the RFT’s off immediately because they ride like crap. Brakes wear quickly in these cars because of the active trace control … turn this off in the cars menu . High flow air filters are $100 and can be cleaned for the life of the car saving money .

[@TradingCarMechanic]

Thanks Nick, great info. I never had a car with run flats, but it sounds like I'm not missing anything! I did turn off the active control, but the previous owner did run the car with it on.

[@Unplugged704]

Isn’t it a bitch and always the case shit happens or you find problems AFTER you buy it? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ I like the looks of Infinitis but not comfortable with Nissan’s CVT problems.

[@Motoro40]

The Infiniti Q50 does not have a CVT.

[@watchdogs295]

You’re clueless when it comes to those brakes I’m sorry 😂 clearly there were a lot of burnouts done in that thing nothing to do with traction control

[@Joshua-nn6dz]

Probably donuts they can’t do burnouts due to the cars computers stopping it

[@Mr86Nick]

That car was rode hard and put away wet.

[@TradingCarMechanic]

Thanks Nick, that's why they call them USED cars.. Lol..
