Though I do agree that it's not really needed, it's really nice to have. It really confuses me that Infiniti/Nissan did not include that and synchro rev matching for the G37 when the 370Z has it

I see the argument for it being a sport feature but I kinda saw it as a luxury feature too. Probably not the best example of it but the BMW M cars have it. But I guess they have a stronger emphasis on sportiness than Infiniti

hey man just want to say me and all my friends who own G37’s and 370Z’s love your videos. I have a 2011 G37S 6MT that i got last month and my roommate has had his 370Z for a year. we’ve used your videos for trans fluid, clutch fluid, engine oil, brake fluid, etc. would love to see other maintenance stuff like coolant flush/spark plugs/cabin filters/belts/ etc if those are things you plan on doing. keep up the amazing work and we will continue supporting you and sharing your content around the community !!

Hey man idk how else to reach you but i think I have a leak somewhere ? I have a 2008 g37s coupe 6mt and every time it rained I will have a wet floor board on both sides of the car . I checked the sunroof drain and the ac drain and they both work and are not clogged . Where do you think the wet floor board coming from ?

@MotorvateDIY

Жыл бұрын

The sunroof drains don't need to be clogged to leak. Over time the sunroof drain gasket compresses and allows water to drip and collect inside the car. This is exactly what happened to my 2011 G37... replacement sunroof drains fixed the problem.

You can remove the glove box and far right vent, then reach under the dash pull back the insulation to see the drain going into the firewall. With the sunroof open, pour a cup of water on the front right side and see if the drain drips. Watch some videos to get a better idea of what is involved.

Hey Corey, Every time I drive my G37, I test my gauges. Overall, they are working really well! The only issue is about once every 30 starts, the gauge gets stuck in a reboot loop. It restarts over and over. BUT a single push on the reset button, always gets the gauges to start up with out any problems. As you can imagine, this is a tricky one to trouble shoot. My next step is to hook up a debugger and watch the start up.

There are 2 ways to do this: (1) Fix the TPMS problem. You may have one or more dead TPMS sensors or they may not be programmed to your car. (2) Temporary fix: Use a scan tool to clear the codes on the BCM. This will turn off the TPMS light for 15 minutes to a few days. As you can see, option 2 really isn't very good, so option 1 is the best and permanent fix.

I do. However, the larger the display, the processing and data bandwidth is required. This is when it gets expensive and more complex. My mini-dash / LCD gauges uses modules that are inexpensive and easy to obtain, but the screen size is limited to around 320 x 240 pixels in order to have a fast responding display. (about 30 updates per second)

After all, if I am selling something, I should know what it works on. Testing them allow me to verify Nissan/Infiniti didn't change the data encoding on the CAN bus.
