INFINITI G35 - 170,000 mile COST: 13 years LONG TERM ownership

[@MotordyneG35]

Remember, you can never check your oil level enough. Every 500 or 1,000 miles you should be checking. Especially, if you drive the G hard.

[@King-ql2kb]

Okay, so like i totally understand what you mean that g owner should be checking their oil all the time since its known to have a high oil consumption, I was lucky enough to put oil in before it goes out last week cause i haven't checked it in a while, but like when i go start my car, when i have my keys in the on position i can see a engine oil icon, but it never lights up when im low on engine oil, is it something infiniti make?

[@swallowpaperairplanes7979]

I remember I put Lucas lube in my oil. My check engine light came on and car started acting crazy. I use to use Hyperlube and never had a problem. But cool thing is my mechanic is Thatdudeinblue mechanic and hes the best out there.

[@driftgodg6943]

Completely debatable as once I drop my 10W30 in my VQ, I am good until it's time to change it.But then again, my DE isn't a Rev-Up although I'm making 463 to the crank. And yes, I drive "the builded VQ" pretty hard from time to time (i.e., Autocross, Drift Nirvana, etc).

I have driven new cars (2016 maxima, Altima, 2014 335i, 2016 Camry, 2014 Corolla) and my car drives smoother, shifts better (besides the maxima cvt), also just purchased a 2015 q50 sport which is a good car but I enjoy my g35 more.

12:23 holy shit. I've been looking relentlessly for a fix for the SAME EXACT issue. I wish you would've supplied the code, hopefully you got the same one.. "P1283 Air Fuel Ratio Sensor 1 Lean Shift Monitoring Bank 2" When my buddies and I tried diagnosing this, we assumed it was the AF sensors too. (He says he changed the O2 sensors BEFORE the cats first) Although yes, those are O2 sesnors, I got sold O2 sensors when really I needed to O2 sensors BEFORE the cat... They call them AF sensors and they're about the same price. Excuse my cluttered thought, I read a diagram wrong and ended up changing the AF sensor on the passenger side, instead of the driver side.. The code eventually came back which lead me to believe that I changed the wrong one. So I went ahead and changed the other AF sensor. Code came back and I said, "Screw it. My car must just be running rich because of my aftermarket exhaust" Thankfully right at 12:23, our boy at Motordyne describes the same exact issue and how he resolved it..! Which btw the fix was the O2 sensors, not the AF sensors. (AF=Air Fuel and for those that don't know, AF sensors are before the cat, and O2 sensors are after the cat) Happily noted man! Gonna swap out both of those O2 sensors shortly here, and hopefully I can stop driving around with that damn check engine light.

hello, how much did all the repairs and replacements cost? and how much did it cost with the mods?

[@Libroer]

This is 👍👍👍👍👍

[@silentassasin741]

Have you had any axle clicking problems on your car? Mine recently started doing it.

[@nikitaartemev3931]

Does anyone know if the manual transmissions are known to brake in those cars? I have a 2004 Coupe 6mt with 120k miles and am curious what to expect.

[@mistuhchristian3841]

Did your upstream 02 sensors go out when you had OEM catalytic converters or when you switched to MD Art pipes? I got two codes P2a03 P2a00 a month or so after. Installing Art pipes could it be the art pipes or just the 12 year old 02 sensors gone bad, My 2006 G has 105,xxx Thank You

[@MotordyneG35]

I had test pipes before MD ART pipes. The ART pipes I put on at 117k and the sensors went bad at 130k miles in 2015. It is most likely your sensors old age. My codes when my 02 sensors went bad: Found: 2 codes! ********** P1283,A/F Sensor Lean shift (Bank 2 Sensor 1) ********** P1273,A/F Sensor Lean shift (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

[@mistuhchristian3841]

Yes mine are also a lean code for the upstream 02 sensors. Heard you say in the video you changed the upstream but you were still getting a code. Would you suggest changing the upstreams or downstreams or all of them Lol???

[@ahumm8280]

mistuh Christian your car's ECM is looking for changes in the exhaust air/fuel byproduct before and after the cats. Except you dont have any cats! Test pipes and art pipes, they do not and are incapable performing the duties of catalytic converters. Get some high flow cats and new oxygen senors. Your problem will be solved. Those parts are for racing applications or are only for use in states that dont legally require emmision control devices!

Do any alternators , starters and radiators automatically come with life time warranty or certain brands ? Thanks

[@JaimeGonzalez-vg2xu]

Where did you buy all your parts? Much respect

[@JoshThomasNetwork18]

Hey motordyne I have a question, I’m experiencing some type of problems with my g35. I just got a brand new exedy clutch. Before I had some disengagement issues so the car wasn’t fully disengaging. So then I adjusted the pedal and it ended up working and fixed the solution but now I also found out that if I push in the clutch it doesn’t disengage right away. It’ll take maybe a second or so for the rpms to drop after pushing in the clutch so I can’t shift until that happens otherwise I’ll grind. You have any ideas what the problem could be?

[@MotordyneG35]

Adjusting the pedal is not what you need to do. When you replaced the clutch, did you replace the slave cylinder? My video on doing it here........kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHnTg6Gfl9-goNE What year is your G35? How many miles? Have you ever changed the gearbox oil before? Late model 05's and after got the CD009 gearbox which has stronger syncro. My gear box is a CD009 and not a CD001. Old syncros take longer to engage gears, so you have to shift slower to allow them to engage, which is a sign your syncros are going out. Most likely 3rd gear is going out for you? ? ?

[@ichang0]

Awesome informative and real lly useful review. I wonder if this is comparable or how this compares to what dealerships promote to have a full service record if you use them every time. Also how many man hours would you guestimate you put into servicing yourself? This gives a paper pusher some idea of total parts, maintenance and labor. It could be not as good. The internet thanks you.

[@SpideySensei72]

Just curious, at what point did you experience the camshaft/crankshaft sensor failure that seems to plague all of our engines?

[@MotordyneG35]

SpideySensei72 ......first at 70k miles, then again at 140k. Yeah it is very common.

[@lvgeorge]

Did I miss it, in your G35 Repair Journal, you list the date and repairs done but not the prices you paid, or do you place that info elsewhere in your book? Very detailed and informative Information. I am considering buying one like yours! Thumbs UP and Thanks!

[@kenfortin8984]

That was one expensive trip to California btw

[@electrify1962]

Hey, love your vids. With reference to the fuel pump, did you ever experience the fuel gauge dropping under E and stop working?

[@KpopNiDontStop]

I have an 06 manual coupe all stock and oh man I want that exhaust.

[@patriciazambrano3936]

You do the repairs yourself so it’s cheaper for you? I have a g37 so I have to pay someone

[@LUXFEE_AUTOMOBIL]

wow..good g35 coupe! nice to meet you.

[@fredwilliams7893]

Man your just like me with my 2008 infiniti M45 sport. nothing but love and strict maintenance for my car. seriously I have owned alot of different cars and my infiniti is by far the best I have owned. I have 101,000 miles now and hope I get 200,000 plus out of her. what engine oil did you use that whole time? I'm bias to Mobil 1 high mileage full synthetic. that stuff has never let me down. apparently M45S IF MAINTAINED PROPERLY ARE KNOW TO GO 250, 000 MILES PLUS.

[@johnandstephanie377]

Did the fuel pump actually fail? That's one I have not come across on the forms. My 05 sport coupe is @ 141k miles now.

[@MotordyneG35]

That means your fuel pump is 13 years old, really 14 years now. No mine didn't fail, but anything over 150,000 miles is on borrowed time. Worse case, you will just be stranded somewhere. New fuel pump is $280. Tow truck is $100. If you wait, you will be buying both when it happens to you.

[@MotordyneG35]

Also, check out my video on how to tell if you have a bad fuel pump....kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHypdqRmmKajhNk

[@johnandstephanie377]

Understand that. This is my second car and I have roadside assistance (free tows) with State Farm . Used them twice (radiator let go last year). I'll wait.
