  • IF you are looking to buy an Infiniti G37, then watch this first! You should always know what kind of issues a car has before you make that purchase. Doing so will help you make an educated purchase.
    The V36 G37 from 2007-2013 is actually really reliable regarding its powertrain, but there are a good bit of issues you should watch out for.

    The G has crazy power, but is difficult to drive "normally". The c300 only has 225 hp, and is more comfortable to drive.
    The only reason we got the g37x was for the AWD feature, I had no idea of the performance until we test drove it, WOW is what I said....

My clutch went out very quick, spark plugs, ignition coils, maf sensors, I have replaced gallery gaskets, water pump, 2 idle pulleys, pulley tensioner, coolant hose, had a vacuum leak and my ac has not worked for almost a year now.

    I have a 2012 G37 coupe automatic with the sport package. The two fairly major issues I've had was the dash cracking and the catalytic converters both failing. Luckily I bought the car used but still within its factory bumper to bumper warranty. I believe if you make a big enough deal out of it there is an extended warranty up to like 5 years or something on both the catalytic converters and the dash cracking cuz it is a known issue. I think my first catalytic converter was replaced under the regular bumper to bumper warranty but when the second one failed it was out. I still got them to replace it for free

First one did all dealer service up to 140k, second owner replaced driveshaft, rear calipers, plugs+coils, some wheel bearings, flushed all the fluids, and did 5k oil changes. When I picked the car up it needed a battery, alternator(+ belt + pulleys + tensioner), and a starter. I still need to clean some grounds up and change the ATF, but the car is really drives great for the mileage.

    2010 G37 Convertible 7AT Owner and honestly... it has been one of the best cars I have ever owned it has an ageless design inside and out in my opinion. Only flaw is the V6 7AT initial throttle response lag, but a quick fix! Do yourself a favor and buy a PedalCommander, deletes that response lag and makes your car feel more alive. Other than that, the steering wheel paint thing is definitely annoying seen it on a few friends (not mine luckily) but not the worst! Just go for that 2012 model if possible to avoid the possible galley gasket failure.

    Other common issues: Sunroof overflow leaks and other rubber/plastic parts deteriorating, valve cover gasket leak, worn hood and trunk struts, clogged oil pans, and the notorious gallery gasket issue (not exclusive to 08 to 12). Stock head units feel dated and aftermarket options are sketchy (wish I knew about this beforehand). All this being said: My coupe is my baby and I still love her. Just gotta keep in mind they are older, and even with them being solid cars, parts will need to be replaced.

      i bought a g37x coupe new in 2011, its become a winter beater now for me, after i bought a supra in 2022. Ive kept it in great shape and only has 78k miles but infiniti/nissan used some shitty materials when they made it. Even though I applied protectants regularly, used a sun shade, and kept the car clean at all times, the car now has chipping paint from some of the silver pieces, my dashboard has a sticky feel in certain areas, the plastics and trim have aged poorly. The stock head unit also really sucks if you don't have a navigation package. I can't stream music from my phone via bluetooth, and since i dont have an iphone i cant even connect my phone to the car via usb to even charge it. Also, theres not even an aux input so my phone is pretty much useless in that car. The transmission sucks too, the shifts are so slow compared to modern sports coupes/sedans. I enjoyed the car when it was new and have done a decent amount of mods to improve it and those have helped, but for the past couple of years, it still feels too outdated. The car is also almost worthless now, was told i could prob only get 12k if i sold it myself lol. Which is why i didnt get rid of it, and decided to use it as a 2nd car for the winter. I would rec someone not a buy a high mileage G series. Better off getting something more modern, even if it has less power.

    #2 for the manuals should be RJM Clutch Pedal to fix the pedal and get yourself a reliable Tilton Clutch Master Cylinder.
    #3 should be removing the Sunroof Drain Filters, they’re pointless and gives you water leaks on interior. Extend the hose a little and welcome to dry interior.
    #4 should be, removing the 3 bolts that hold up the sunroof instead of waiting for them to gradually get loose, putting a minor dab of locktite and retightening them up.

      I bought a 2011 MT sedan with 56k miles thinking that it'll last for 200+k miles but didn't realize it's gonna be a money pit in the process. Although it's a fun car, it definitely isn't cheap to run. Sold it at 86k miles. It was already leaking oil from the timing chain cover...I definitely miss the car granted it disappointed me after just three years.

    I drive a G37 IPL, and am very pleased.
    Performance: my best 1/4 time is 14.4 seconds. The G has plenty of torque, but the final drive ratio is less than perfect for 1/4 mile times. The G shifts from 4th to 5th gear just before the finish line. So I am crossing the finish line at the bottom of the torque curve not the top.
    Automatic transmission: with 6 forward gears, the transmission is always “hunting” for the proper gear. The slightest change in road elevation, and the G will either up or down shift.
    Reliability is excellent. Other than routine maintenance such as tires and oil changes, I haven’t put a dime into the car.
    Summary: if you can find a used G37 IPL with less than 50,000 miles, get it. You will be please with the bang for your bucks.

  • @PaulsToolReview
    @PaulsToolReview Před 3 lety +6

    You missed a few big ones for G37. Passenger Occupant Sensor fails and can only be fixed properly by replacing the entire passenger seat for $5K - $7K or installing an OCS Emulator bypass to keep your airbag on all the time. Third option is to ignore the blinking red light about airbag failure on dash and Passenger airbag disabled light on the console. The sensor is not field replaceable and even if it was and you found the part in a junkyard, the labor to take apart the seat and specifically the bottom cushion would be huge. Easier to just replace the entire seat if you can find on that matches or just use an OCS bypass.
    Also, while they had dash recall for the earlier G37s, the newer ones (2010+) still get sticky / shiny and probably will eventually melt / crack, but as of yet no recall.
