This is a good video. The only thing I would change is the throttle body removal. Instead of disconnecting coolant lines it is better to remove 4 bolts and remove it from the manifold, and move it out of the way. This will require a new $5 gasket but seems easier to do. As I remember correctly torque is 10 Nm. Cheers!

I agree with you completely. When I told the customer the gasket was $8.00 they declined and said I could use water to fill the excess...lol

Awesome! Having a starting issue. Not sure if it’s the starter or battery, but this was definitely helpful when I go to mechanic tomorrow.

2011 Infinity M56. 186K miles. In the last 4 years I have replaced catalytic converters (4k), radiator, and just recently the High pressure fuel pump (2k) and rebuilt rack and pinion (2k). Not sure how much more I can take?! Should I keep the faith and hang onto it?

Well it all depends on you and your situation. You've already done a lot of work so is a car payment worth the work you've already put in? I'm not sure it is but that's a question you will have t9 answer. Only things i can see that may be a cost in the future is alternator, valve cover gaskets, starter, and maybe some suspension components. It's hard to say but these are just normal wear and tear items. Good luck with your decision. Thanks for allowing me to comment

Damn why the hell they put starter under manifold! Imagine dropping something inside the intake runners😡

I know right...makes no sense to me either. The heat especially. Someone got paid big bucks to engineer that design

Check your coolant and check for leaks. Be careful driving it...you don't want to blow a head gsket.. you can rent a pressure tester fron autozone or O'Reilly to see where the coolant is leaking from. Could be an easy fix

How often do you change the transmission fluid for a infiniti qx56
@wedoitall7676 Жыл бұрын
I am not a fan of mileage for transmission. Fluid. I change it as needed. When it's no longer red and dirty. Others change everyv100,000. It's really up to your preference

@We do it all If you change the transmission fluid in the qx56 some people say they started having problems
@wedoitall7676 Жыл бұрын
It's true...that's why I'm against changing that fluid at mileage intervals. If it's not black or smells burnt, I'd leave it alone. That's my opinion though
