Infiniti G35 Transmission and Differential Fluid Change! Infiniti G35 G37 M35 Fx35 Nissan 350z 370z

[@cjfalco8779]

Yo a legit question i see you change the transmission fluid this way in this wideo then when you change the pan and gasket you undo the valve body and let it drain that way also for the transmission fluid. My wiestion is do you do botch procedures to ensure a full transmission flush?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

This is a manual transmission so it doesn't have a transmission pan or filter. I have two videos because the process Is not the same

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

I hope you guys are having a great day, Thank you for watching! And yes I know I suck at shifting

[@g35tho11]

I got a06 g35 coupe 6mt and planning on changing diff fluid but don’t know if to buy the one with lsd additive or without??

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

The best thing you can do is check your owners manual i believe 2006 use gl5 gear oil but make sure you double check because they are different

[@miguelmarquez788]

What was the cost of fluids both of them just trying to get a number see if price is right for my spending I would check online but I’m sure I’ll get all sorts of prices

[@JoseSandoval-yv7cs]

Aye its eddie the guy you sold the mud guards to, I have like 20 of those copper gaskets man if you ever need some and once you have the G all good you should wrap it it'll be a cool video to see 😁🤔

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

thanks bro, where did you get them from? I really want to learn to wrap and paint, for now I will paint it with plasti dip that I have

[@JoseSandoval-yv7cs]

Conzept z performance in deer valley there like 20 cents each but it's better if your around there and go to there store because they do charge a lot for shipping from what I heard and hell ya wrap it when its 100%, plasti dip is a place holder for the time being bro😀

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

yeah bro that's what I'm goingf to do until I can learn how to wrap, I've been there before I'll have to check them out thanks for letting me know bro, did you get the mud guards on?

[@JoseSandoval-yv7cs]

@@ERICSDIYGARAGE For Sure i'm still learning bit by bit , and nah i haven't i've been procrastinating alot but ive got them sanded down and just waiting on an old buddies dad to get back to town to paint them they seem like they were a shade off i was told silverstone and chromesilver not sure which one i have? either way im going to end up wrapping the whole car sooner or later no later than this year

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

@@JoseSandoval-yv7cs dang well hopefully it all works out bro I've been the same but I have to get back to it

[@berbiceguyu772]

my 2010 FX 35 does not have a 10mM Hex but it has a bolt and also a smaller hex bolt towards the front of the Tran. The fill plug is neither a hex or a bolt it looks like a special type of tool is needed for this type of fill plug. Thanks for your help

[@SkullGamingNation]

Hey got a question here So i got a 03 Infiniti g35 coupe with 212k miles i got it for 1k only and planned to restore this vehicle in time id like to get another 200k miles but im willing to invest more than the car is worth Heres my question im uncertain about if or when the differential fluid was replaced... I have a whireing sound when decelerating kinda feels or sounds like the engine is powering down but had me thinking it might be something to do with the condition of my differential.. would it be viable for me to get it serviced with new fluid this far into the engines life? (Engine is in very good shape) I dont wanna do this if i risk needing a whole new differential lol

[@richardsmith2721]

Are you sure it's an '03? It doesn't have '03 tail lights. The backup lights on my '03 are round.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

yes it's a 2003, I changed the taillights

[@richardsmith2721]

@@ERICSDIYGARAGE IIRC, there's a trunk release button on the later lights. Does it work on yours?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

@@richardsmith2721 no the trunk release doesn't work

[@LUVTIP]

Nice video bro like that, my question is I have an 03 infiniti g35 coupe which is an automatic can i use the same products you used in the video or different fluid. Also my car started running strange yesterday on my way to work i was getting this thump sound when it shift and when I came to a stop and took off i had to push the gas pedal halfway to the floor to go as i got on down the road it leveled off and ran smooth until i had to stop again and take off, the car has 165,321 on it and i have never changed the the transmission fluid or screen on the car..

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

You might want to check your throttle body and see if it need cleaning, but it would also be a good idea to change the fluid but start at looking at the Throttle body and mas air flow sensor if they are dirty clean them. As for as the fluid I used you can not use it in automatic transmissions you need to use oem fluid go to your nissan dealership its about 16 bucks a bottle but it worth going oem with the automatic transmissions

[@puma1294]

Did u figure out what it was?

[@jxrioss21]

Did you end up checking ?

[@jackiearmstrong3173]

I have a G35 2007 infinity sitting in my backyard. It's a 2 door black car. The dealers want to charge me over 4000.00 to repair the transmission in my car. Do you know any mechanic who works on cars like mine at a decent price?

[@Mohdr121]

hi eric im about todo this service as well as my second gear is very notchy sometimes. Do i have to change the washers or is it okay to re use?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

I resued mine and not leaks I've changed the fluid to oem I would now advise the same for you since the nissan gear fluid works best

[@viktorzzz2124]

Cool vids bro. Quick question I recently bought a 03 g35 I noticed it started to shift hard like yours and just yesterday it started not to want to go into reverse gear checked the fluid and I'm alittle below Min level could that be the reason?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

hows it going, do you have a automatic or standard transmission, what color was your fluid when you checked it?

[@viktorzzz2124]

It's a 6 speed manual as well and it was kinda of a dark reddish color.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

it could be your transmission shifter Bushing or maybe the fluid needs to be replaced. try to change your transmission fluid and see if it resolves

[@viktorzzz2124]

For sure. And I also forgot to mention that by it not going to reverse I meant it would grind the gear. All the other gears go in but hard.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

@@viktorzzz2124 sounds like it could be bad synchros, cheapest thing you can do is change the fluid and you can go from there, hopefully its just dirty fluid

[@charger6773]

Did u ever do the diff bushing video?

[@ahyungrocks5509]

For the transmission, why is it different from my 2005 G35 auto? Mine drain is a bolt, not hex.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

Because this is a 6 speed manual transmission they are different

[@Ghost_717]

I have an auto G .. urs being manual is there a difference in the amount of fluid I’ll need?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

yes I believe the automatics take much more like 5 or 6 quarts not exactly sure

[@Ghost_717]

ERICSDIYGARAGE ok cool 6 should be on the safe side .. my diff bushing is also cracked like yours was do you have a video on that?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

@@Ghost_717 no not yet I would like to make one eventually 👍

[@nadine2373]

I really wish you lived near by I really like my car but the shops are charging so much

[@pushhrodd01]

Why did your diff flex so much. Was it unbolted? If it wasn’t your bushings are 100% toast if it flex’s that much

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

In the video I show a clip of my differential mount, I'm sourcing a whiteline differential mount for install

[@kevinr5921]

How many quarts did it take ? I heard it’s 1.5qt but seen people says it fills up with 1 qt? Good video man 🔥

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

thank you! it was 4 quarts that I used

[@kevinr5921]

ERICSDIYGARAGE no problem ! Is it 4 qt for differential ?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

for the diff its like 2 qt

[@kevinr5921]

ERICSDIYGARAGE okay thanks bro!

[@xSENIK1]

What mileage should the transmission and diff fluid be changed?

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

I would do it every 50-60k

[@DTUFINOPhotography]

I wanna do this to my FX35 but i dont have the tools and no one in NYC is a real mechanic to help out... so i'm stuck paying prices at infiniti!

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

Sorry man wish I could help

[@matlockmadness]

Auto part stores have tool loaner programs where you can borrow tools for a job for free

[@xMikeDezzyx421]

Good job bro.

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

thank you!

[@Nouri_TV]

great video, great description about to do this tomorrow on my 03 g35 coupe thx u boss

[@brianthehonduran9361]

hows it been running i hear older ones are a lil less reliable im lookin at an 04 rn

[@Nouri_TV]

@@brianthehonduran9361 i got a 2003 non-rev up black on black w brembo brakes, and the motor/transmission are solid at 132k miles 6 speed. I added 5/16" blox plenum spacer, synthetic diff/tranny fluid, coilovers, control arms, ball joints, compression rods, tires, rims, vinyl wrap got a few shorts on my channel about it... The motors/transmissions are solid, but make sure you check control arms, suspension, ball joints, compression rods, listen for noises when you brake/stop (This will save you a lot of money if you point this out during negotiations), and get a manual!!! (even though they are harder to find) I installed an oil catch can too so the oil vapors don't dirty up the plenum over time. I get a weird sound going into reverse gear, but found out reverse has no synchro / put it into 1st before reverse, and that fixed that lol. Overall a solid o.g. jdm car that has its flaws, but definitely is a future classic. *Main issues are suspension, oil burning (change every 3k 10w30 manual recommended/install oil catch can) , seat motors, window motors, other than that I love the car, and its amazing at drifting even without much skill *yet* =)

Hey bro what's going on when do you think you'll have some free time to help me work on the G20 teed 99 and throw you some cash

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

what's wrong with it bro?

[@BurntToast0p88]

Where is the drain location

[@du6297]

What about cleaning the magnets

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

when you remove the drain plug it can be cleaned

[@Tuesflex]

Good vid, wouldnt trust supertech

[@ERICSDIYGARAGE]

thank you for watching, super tech is just a brand that buys the oil from a bigger oil companies and just puts the label of super tech on it. if it meets all the requirements for diff oil than it should be good to use at least that's the way I look at thirngs.
