r/G35

The coupe I bought recently came with the full z1 touring catback. And I've decided I want a new exhaust. Will be selling this one, it's still in excellent shape. I want a quieter exhaust. Maybe a smidge louder than factory, but not a ton. Vqs do not sound good loud. At all. Leaning to perhaps the revel medallion?

Volume is hard to judge unless your actually there so if anyone has any input I'd appreciate it.

have a 2005 Infiniti G35 that is overheating. I already know that the driver-side radiator fan is not working. When I turn the heat on full blast and drive on the highway, the temperature stays around normal and does not overheat. However, when I’m driving locally, especially in traffic or when stopped at red lights, the temperature rises quickly and starts to overheat.

I also have these codes:

• P1217 – Engine Over Temperature
• P1272 – A/F Sensor 1 Bank 1
• P0300 – Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire

I also noticed an oil leak on the driver side around the valve cover area. The passenger side is completely dry and spotless. I’m not sure if the oil leak could have been caused or made worse by the overheating, or if it is a separate issue.

Another thing I noticed is that when I checked the radiator, there was little to no coolant visible in the radiator, even though the coolant reservoir has stayed at the MAX level for the past day or two. Even after driving, the reservoir still appears to stay at MAX, so I don’t think the system is pulling coolant from the reservoir into the radiator.

Could the bad radiator fan be the main reason it overheats in traffic? Could the radiator being low while the reservoir stays full indicate a problem with the radiator cap, air in the cooling system, thermostat, water pump, or another issue? I’m also wondering if the overheating could be related to the P0300 misfire or the oil leak.

What should I check first?

My 2005 G35 started giving me a slow start and often times not starting (requiring a jump) a few weeks ago. Since then I’ve replaced the battery, the terminals, and the alternator and nothing seemed to fix the issue. Finally, yesterday i was stuck at a liquor store unable to start the car and the guy who was helping me out told me there’s probably some device drawing power and draining my battery which could’ve been my dash cam or carplay screen i had gotten installed (both about a year ago). About 10 minutes ago i disconnected the hardwired dash cam and the car seems to be starting up just fine now, so what exactly changed that made the dash camera suddenly cause issues?

Hey guys, I’m planning on getting the Z1 Timing Chain Kit, Thermostat, and Water Pump. As my 04 G35 coupe with 255k km’s cold start rattle is happening a lot more , and after highway driving a high pitch noise popped up somewhere in the Engine.

Just wondering what other Maintenance I should get done while the Engine is already open.

I’m considering
- Gallery Gasket
- Alternator
- Radiator (All Aluminum?)
- Some Silicone Hoses
- Radiator Fans

Thank you in Advance!

I’ve seen and tried some youtube quick fixes to take care of the vdc/slip light on my 2006 G35x. Still no luck. All new brakes all around, fluids topped off. No CEL/SEL. Not sure what else to check. It being an AWD model I’m sure adds another degree of wtf could it be. Any ideas? ABS sensors?

2004 g35x 105k mileage, regularly serviced, and I know nothing about cars.

Was sitting at a light and car just shut off. The “service engine”, “brake”, and “battery” lights all came on. I put it into park and the car slowly went in reverse until I put it into neutral and turned the ignition on getting it back to normal and successfully drove home.

What the hell was this?

Replaced both fronts wheel bearings on the 05 g35x with nva wheel bearings from z1 property installed following all tq specs including on the axle nut. That being said my right has started to make noise after 12k miles or so. I really would prefer to replace it and be done instead of going back every once and a while to do it again.

Does anyone have good alternatives not to much info out there first hand experience is preferable bonus points if you know where to find them and the current part number.
