Hi Wendy. Thanks for you comment I appreciate it! Definitely test drive both SUVs a few times. I test drove my QX70 a few times before I eventually bought it. I'm surprised how well the QX70 handles and as well as the acceleration, I feel safe in the car. The rear visibility takes some getting use due to the low sloping roof line. I average about 17 miles a gallon daily driving, but long trips are better. If you decide to buy one with the 18" wheels the drive is more comfortable. The larger wheels you feel more of the road but still comfortable. I never driven the QX60 I've read mix reviews. I would also consider checking out the 2019 QX50. I hope this helps. Good-luck!

Useful insights Orlando - this has helped convince me to buy an FX in the UK. Just wondered if the user manual specifies which type of bulbs the front & rear of the car takes? I want to purchase LED bulbs for side lamp, reverse/back-up and license plates. Thanks in advance

@orlandojacinto1

Thanks Dave. I'm glad you found the video helpful. The user manual references the xenon headlight bulb number of DS2 only and wattage of each exterior light. For example, the stop lights (stop/tail & high mounted) show a wattage of LED but not the bulb type, but it is safe to assume the bulb is LED. Infiniti service or an authorized workshop will give you the right answer. I checked Infiniti's eStore it only displays a Lookup code and part number. Hope this helps.

Orlando J Vlogs Thanks again. So I will be the proud new owner of an FX in 7-10 days once the dealership has put right some minor marks and prepared the vehicle, so I will have the owner’s manual then. Having done some additional research over the weekend it appears the number plate and side lights take 501 W5W bulbs and the reversing lamp is 582 W21W. This might be a European naming convention though. Do either of those numbers of wattage values marry-up with your information? Thanks!

The Nissan dealers should be able to do the maintenance. But you should look after the 3.0d (diesel engine) or the 5.0 (one of the greatest V8 engines ever). To me the 3.7 is quite good but the two other options are far better, because they got a lot more of torque (and active rear steer, a feature the 3.7 doesn´t have). I first had a 3.0d and now I´m the lucky owner of the 5.0 (in europe they were sold up to 2018). Up to now there was not a single technical issue and they are so much fun to drive.
