Can I pay you to this to my car?
I wish I could help you.
curious what your symptoms were on the truck with this? I'm currently chasing a phantom stall myself, but the fuel pump is only a year old. My line to the rollover was replaced, but the rollover itself may need replacing. what were your symptoms on the truck?
The common issue is check engine light, especially when your vehicle is up for emission testing. But for my truck I found out that it was broken, plastics were all brittle/worn out.
My settings don’t even got Bluetooth on my 2010
Hey , you got any idea what's causing my saw to cut off after a few seconds being turned on ? I guess it's either the trigger switch or motor ? Don't even get to put it into lumber it just cuts off and no it's not the battery
motor is the common problem, click the link in the description for the parts.
Worst video ever .....
How long would you estimate a general automotive tech doing this job there first time? Then their 2nd time?
Assuming you got the parts and tools, roughly 1-2hrs
Trash videp
Odd... I've been working on cars for 50 years, doing every task under the sun & I never wore a mask & gloves. Maybe that's why I'm deranged?
Wow! 50yrs, you are a master!
@@YugtenTeknologies A master all right...... baiter!
New sub thanks
Thank goodness I saw this video a while back. I hate going for a repair with no knowledge of what possible fixes exist. I gave this video to my mechanic, along with the gears I ordered from his Ebay site. Saved megabucks on my 2012 G37 Vert. It was out of action through winter. Jesus this video saved me over $5000.00.
How much did it cost you? I need to have this fixed myself. I could never do.what’s on the video.
Update. Infiniti wants $2053 per flapper, $4460.00 W/tax. Just the parts. $870 diagnostics, $840 labor. Over $6100, for new flapper with the same faulty gears. I gave them the finger. Bought these gears on ebay, $198 for the pair. My mech at M&P auto repair in Arlington, Tx had them in 4 hr job, $775. Top is working flawlessly. Baby I'm back. 😊
Thanks for sharing! Good job!
Please subscribe if you think this video help you.
You couldve showed how u did it
But when i do this it says it’s connected but no sound comes out nor does the option “ Bluetooth” pop up when going thru which to leave radio on, can sum one help lol
Could be not only battery, i saw on video it is turning off really hard, maybe panel is cloudy and need to be clean or broken because it not have suitable Isc now like new one and have no power to charge the battery.
idiot
Fix what exactly?
Is there any resetting of the top that needs to be done ?
Why wont it work for my 2011
Does the menu shows up?
I looked through my settings and I don’t have the option for Bluetooth
What year is your conv?
Did the barb fitting and epoxy work when you did this quick fix? Also, did you get any check engine codes due to this problem?
Yes it works. No codes.
Salamat po.
You definitely love Filipinos. Thank you for visiting my video.
@@YugtenTeknologiesWalang problema.
1. Once top is down, can the car be used for around town trips (obviously garaged rest of time)? 2. Approximate time for first timer with average experience (have done brakes, rotors, all suspension / bushings on late 80s Z) (3) Any DIYers in St Louis area that would do this for fair pay?
1. Of course you still drive your conv 2. 4 hours tops for both sides. Goodluck!
@@YugtenTeknologiesSo really quick ... My top is currently up (closed) .. that's where I was able to get it to after the gear stripped. So you're saying that as long is in fully open or closed (i.e. not torque on the gear in the flapper motor) ... Once I have removed both motors I can continue to drive car without any issues until I'm able to fix? Also, I assume worse case there are DIYers that would do the motor repair (i.e. ship motor(s) to them, payment for labor, etc, and they do the repair and then ship back)? Obviously some coordination there but that's where I'm looking for a back up plan IF I get stuck with the motor disassembly? Thanks so much!
@@KC-pc8ou you can repair it in the up position as well....
For those doing the fix, is the car drivable during the repair? My understanding is the top is down for most of the repair - if always garaged, limited trips (<40 mph), etc) .. can be it used practically (obviously with top down)? What is the average time to do this repair the first time (I have done oil, brakes, rotors, etc .. biggest project was all 4 corners on a late 80s Z car including struts, bushings, etc). Took over a month (all hand tools , breaker bars, etc ..) and busy job / young family .. and a 3rd car at the time so no rush.
Took me a couple hours doing it myself. Pay attention to the other videos out there that show it real time with the drilling and all. Do NOT break the little nipples on the plastic covers when removing them and leave that one damn rivet for the plastic cover off, or you will be drilling that one back out. If one of the nipples break on the plastic, just velcro it on. Was not a hard project at all. If there is another set of hands, that will make it go faster for sure. Was not fun trying to hold and rivet at the same time. But very doable. I did not do all the excessive cleaning, I just overly greased the gears and put the new ones in. The only things that still makes me laugh is hearing the drilled out rivets roll around when the top goes up/down or when accelerating. I just turn up the music until they find their forever crease one day, lol.
I'm trying to listen to CZcams and it's NOT working... HELPPPP!
Check your blutooth connection setting on your phone. Calls and Audio must be checked.

What can cause a 2004 Dodge Ram with a 5.7 Hemi pull up at the store cut the vehicle all come back out of the store we could crank the vehicle backup and all it did he spend over what can cause that he was running before that happened real good
Your question too general, it might be two different issues
Your using cheap thin plastic parts that are going to start melting away from the harshness of the gas... lol
I don't see any issue for now. Those connectors are used for fuel lines.
Where are you my flap gear it out

Can I just get a screen from a 2010+ and swap for the blue tooth to work without wires?
I got a 2009
It will work on 2010 up if you scroll down and read comments. Do you have a gps package?
I have a gps but I need to replace my screen or system cause the Bluetooth don’t work and back up camera blurry
If you're replacing your OEM system, then try to upgrade it with an Android system from Phoenix Automotive they sell a Tesla like package for G37. Just a suggestion since you'll upgrade it.

Check your "My Car" blutooth settings from your phone, you must turn on all calls, audio, etc.
First. I gotta say. Everything is on point. I fixed the problem. Was hard. To remove the rivets. If worst case scenerial. I used very small bolts
Congrats!
Ummm is there a part 2 🫤
No Part 2
Thanks for the video. My 2009 G37S doesn't currently have this issue but, from all the people that have dealt with the problem I know it is coming. I'm the second owner and got it in 2011 with 13K on it. The only problem I've had so far is the banging noise at the right rear window that everyone complains about.
What size rivets are needed to replace the ones you remove?
I don't remember but I bought a box from Harbor Freight
Dude sound off like you got a pair!!
DISCLAIMER: I just did this yesterday and it is not for the faint of heart. If you do not know much about mechanics and or car repair, you may absolutely destroy your car. This video depicts an extremely tiny bit of what you actually must do. It's possible and will save you BUCKET LOADS OF MONEY, but just be cautious before really digging into this repair.
I wish you had made your own video to help the inept mechanics like me.
@@osntfair If you need assistant, feel free to reach out to me. We can chat on whats app
@@jordantaylor5557 thanks
Can't open top because the Flipper gear wont completely open. Can I still do it without the top open?
You need someone to help you engage the flipper by gently guiding it to it's open position.
@@YugtenTeknologies This worked, thanks.
Hello.. I have the same problem on the left side in the 2016 model will it be the same solution? And from where I can buy the two pieces that you replaced as in the video Thank you
Yes, exactly. Read the top comments for the seller of gears.
You the best man thanks a lot, You don’t know how frustrating this thing was for me, and i finally know how to connect it without fighting the touch screen 💯💯
Glad I could help. Please subscribe.
Thanks for the video ! Where can I buy the parts for this fix ? The link provided in previous conversations don’t seem to answer.
Here is the gear seller from Canada. Click the link www.myg37.com/forums/members/371742-guy-menard.html
Absolutely miserable experience replacing just the passenger side. Took literally 45 minutes to drill out the rivets because they kept spinning. Had to have one person hold the back side of the river and the other drill all 5 of them out. Then trying to put the arm back in place took another 45 minutes. You must loosen ALL the bolts besides the few that you remove or you ain’t getting that arm back in place. Overall it took 4 hours. Yes I only paid $99 for the gear but even looking back I would have gladly laid out $1200-$1500 for someone else to just replace the arm assembly. I am no longer as nimble as I used to be and I was challenged to bend in all kinds of positions to get this thing completed.
Congrats you did it!
With spinning rivets, use a ball rotary file in a die grinder, 90 deg. if available. Once the center of the head is thin enough, punch it through. Coming from an aircraft structural mechanic.
I’m doing the fix rn as we speak 😂wish me luck
Goodluck!
Tell us your fixing story...
Thank you for making this video! Why did you get new metal inner gears when the outer plastic gear was the broken part?
The OEM plastic gear is a design flaw
