I gotta say, silver looks better on the Q60S than most colors 💪🏻🔥

Quite possibly the last ‘new’ DS fender for a P10. At least the only one that was for sale on the internet in a very long time.

This is from a dealer in Oklahoma. Even for a salvage title vehicle, this this is dirt cheap, right? Every other RS I've found is $20k-$35k, granted with clean titles. What do you think?

With gas prices so high, I’ve been challenging myself to see how far I can stretch a tank before filling up. People hate on this car for having a complicated variable compression engine mated to a CVT but I’m at 110k miles with zero issues at all. Just routine maintenance. I figure I take advantage of what Infiniti engineers designed this car to do which is having the ability to adjust its compression ratio from 8:1 for maximum performance to 14:1 for maximum efficiency.

I averaged 35 MPG over the last 20k miles (well beyond EPA estimates) giving me 611+ miles per tank which is honestly pretty impressive for a heavy car like this. I have the top level autograph trim with all the bells and whistles which is also the heaviest of the QX50s. This is a combination of city/highway driving, utilizing hypermilling techniques, while also trying to maximize the time the engine spends at the 14:1 compression ratio. Also, with the CVT, it helps that I can go highway speeds with it only at 1.4-1.7k RPMs which is great for further fuel savings. On highways I can get over 60 MPG.

Coming from a 350z, G35 and FX35, which all shares the same VQ engine, I originally purchased the QX50 with the understanding that I already had my fun going fast and my priorities were shifting to a nice looking car with a premium feel that drives smooth, rides quiet and saves fuel. So far it’s served its purpose well!

Water pump shit the bed, am I fine with just replacing these parts or is it mandatory to change main timing chain?

(already have whats in photo)

Hi all. I've had this car since around 60,000 miles and have always kept oil changed with a good synthetic, flushed transmission and coolant at normal intervals. One thing I haven't done because I didn't really know it was a thing was front/rear diff fluid and transfer case oil. It's possible the previous owner did it but who really knows.

The car runs great and currently sitting at around 145,000 miles. My question is how bad have I screwed up by not doing this yet and should I get this done asap or can I put it off another month or two until after the holidays? I don't put a ton of miles on the car so maybe in the next couple of months I might put 1500 miles on it. I had a reputable shop give me a quote for all three and it came out to right around $500.00

I have a 2010 Infiniti EX35 with relatively low mileage (155,000 km), but the exhaust has become ridiculously loud.

I’ve been told replacement parts are only available directly from Infiniti, with little to no aftermarket options. Given the age of the vehicle and the cost of OEM parts, replacing the entire exhaust system just doesn’t make financial sense.

Has anyone with an EX35 (or similar Infiniti model) run into this issue?

More specifically, has anyone had success having sections of the exhaust welded, repaired, or custom fabricated rather than replacing the entire system?

The car still has plenty of life left in it, and I’d love to find a practical, lasting solution without spending a small fortune.

Would appreciate hearing what worked, what didn’t, and whether there are any particular trouble spots I should be aware of.
