    Mr. Boost, my belt shredded at about 52k miles (2017 Q50 Red), and had no idea this was an issue. After looking under the hood and seeing what the problems was, I googled how to change the belt, and found your video. A buddy found the belt after four tries (Houston, Southside), and even though you didn't have a layout, we used it with another image to get the job done in the dark. (You weren't kidding about that tensioner). At the dealer for my next service, they said I had some damaged to other houses and belts under the carriage, and that the price would be starting at $1100. I used the INFORMATION YOU GAVE ME(!!!!) about Nissan knowing about this issue to have them call Nissan and HAVE IT DONE FOR FREE EVEN THOUGH MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I'm glad you came up on my frantic search, and I owe ya one. Spreading the love!

So before 5k my Q60 was down almost a quart.Just bought so oil and keep it in my truck. And agree with you on not waiting until 10k for oil change. I did mine at 5k and will keep doing ever 5k.

      They are aftermarket Solutions. On the market for the catch can. Just look on my channel where I have installed one. All cars with direct injection have this issue though

My best advice for Q50/60 buyers is if you can't afford a big repair bill PLEASE get a warranty. I know how stressful repairs can be and it isn't worth it.

      I've had my 2014 Q50 3.7 AWD for almost 2 years and she's been great. Just got my oil changed and tires done today and was told for my next appt we should do spark plugs and I know I also need a valve cover gasket. So I'll get both done at the same time since it's apart anyway. She's just shy of 100k and I absolutely love my car. My last car was a dodge crapvenger. Now that was a nightmare of a money milker. While the infiniti definitely isn't cheap, I'll still take it over something that needs repairs every week. Seems all vehicles these days are a crapshooot. All we can do is research some stuff we like and narrow down the choices. Nothings gonna be perfect and there will always be lemons, or something not properly put together no matter the brand. People build cars and everyone has off days. The quality of a Friday built car may not be the same as a Monday built car for example. It's luck of the draw, some will have positive experiences and some will not. 2 years in for me and I would not choose another car over this one.

    That is a fact! I have an fx45 and once the egine oil light turned on but like u said it was almost to late. I caught it as soon as I was coming to a red light and I pressed my brake a little harder than normal. The oil light popped on and I pulled over and checked it. It was no oil due to taking it in for service an the tech didnt tighten the oil pan screw down specific torque and oil leaked from the engine oil pan screw. At the end the oil was replaced and the oil screw and all is well. So check that oil with your infiniti every 3 weeks or 4.

    Wow...after watching this and reading the comments, I don't think I could take a chance on this car. There's nothing worse than having to take a car back to the dealer for issues and hoping they'll take care of you. It can be an especially big problem if you are modding it. I want to like these cars, but I really feel like Nissan/Infiniti quality is really dropping these days. Overall I must say I'm very happy with my Charger Scat Pack...no issues at 36k miles. I can't add power easily like with these turbo cars, but it's pretty quick stock and it never gives me any trouble. Gotta like that.

      The 3.7 Q50 is better than the 3.0 turbo in my opinion. I would never buy the turbo but I love my 2014 Q50 3.7 awd...shes coming up on 100k

    My 2018 Q50 Red Sport needed its engine replaced after the oil ran super low. Only 68XX miles and it started to knock. Upon examination my dealer found shrapnels of metal in the oil pan. They replaced it under warranty and so far, I’ve had absolutely no issue. I’ve been on this new engine for about 1500 miles now and it’s running fine, obviously don’t wanna push it too much yet but it’s doing good. Now I know that I’m not alone though 😂😂😂

      I would change your oil & filter soon. I changed out the oil & filter on my '17 Q60S initially @ 1k miles, and every 4-5k miles since. Now @ 19k miles, my engine uses no oil between change intervals, and I am modded.

      @@ili.qfiddy The VR30DDTT engine has alot of potential. Last fall, my Q60 Red Sport put down 437 WHP & 502 WTQ on a DynoJet AWD dyno w/93 octane.
      One more note on oil changes, I take a sample of oil at every oil change and send it to Blackstone Labs for analysis. For $28, I can track how much metal is in the oil, and just as important, how much fuel is in the oil. With Direct Injection, fuel dilution is a concern, and can reduce viscosity over time. I found I shouldn't go over 5k miles between changes, as the fuel dilution reduced my 5W30 to a 5W20 in one sample. YMMV...
      I'll also be running a Catch Can soon... Mishimoto has released a nice setup for the VR30DDTT for $200 (pre-order). It will be available in March 2019.

    Great video! I’am currently on the market looking for an Infiniti 2013/2012 G37x or 2016/2017 Q50. So far I have found a 2017 Q50 Premium 3.0t. I went to go check it out this past weekend, I took it for a test drive for about 30mins. The Gears were shifting really smooth, didn’t hear no rattle or anything. But when I got back to the dealership, I turned off the car for 10mins and I started checking the oil, and noticed they haven’t kept up with it maintenance, the oil was low and black, the engine was making this tic noise, and that’s because I believe it’s due to the low oil since they haven’t done an oil change on the vehicle. So my question is, after watching this video, is it even worth getting the car?

      Old post but others may be interested to know, in 2018+ models Infinity improved the seals on the turbos.
      It is still vitally important to keep tabs on the motor oil as it is used to lubricate and cool the turbos as well.
      The idea of going 10K miles on an oil change on a turbo car is insane to me.

    1. How can you visually tell whether or not your bracket is misaligned when buying a new q60?
    2. Can you replace the ignition coils/injectors with aftermarket mods to nip this issue in the bud? I'll be going stage 3 almost immediately, with BOV and Carbonfiber driveshaft - and, if possible, this too. Thanks in advance.

      You have to look it up under a Google search. It depends on how the belt sits on some of the pulleys. I still believe that it's actually attributed to the automatic spring compressor not the AC compressor but that's my opinion. The injector issues usually come some people who change out the high pressure fuel pump and upgrade to E85
