- After buying two cars for the price of one it's time to get busy fixing them so I decided to start with the 2003 Infiniti I35. The brakes were seized, the brake lights stuck on, battery dead, it was out of gas, and misfiring... honestly an impressive number of problems.

This is the classic content I've missed.
Me too. The cheap car fixes are awesome.
Amen. I haven’t been watching any of these Reno vids etc. just boring shit. I come to this channel to see these junkers get fixed and flipped
Agreed. Not too fond on the house updates, although some of the garage ones are OK. Love the ones with motor vehicles though.
Just thinking the same thing. For me, this is what JR does best.
i second this... Gotta love those cheap fixes; stuff we all can relate to.
I would consider replacing those brake hoses. They could be swelling and deteriorating internally causing the black color in your brake fluid.
"The battery died, after washing the car", sounds like a Tesla Cybertruck Symptom! (sarcasm)
Its not water that makes the fluid black. That's the brake hoses failing internally that makes the black color. If you have a sticky caliper change the hose first.
If there is black gunk coming from lines, JR you should replace brake lines too.
Or give headsup to new customer who buys this car. Those brake lines are crumbling for sure. 😢
You’re fr becoming one of my favorite car gurus on here! I’m restoring an 03 Volvo s80 that is cursed but I love. Heater core exploded on me, needed a new cat, and my sunroof flew off on me. Gotta love the struggle 😭Cheers
That year has a built-in self diagnostic test you can perform with the keyless entry fob as well. They pretty much thought of everything.
Lovely A33 Maxima. I had a white one here in Australia.
Why are you expecting a 2017 battery that's been flat for who knows how long to revive ? I expect the alternator can't keep up with the sulphated and shorted out cells when the lights etc are on . Just replace the battery
Right?
I loved those cars back when they were new.
Damn what a shame they trashed the factory headlights for that aftermarket junk. Either all of these or at least the upper trims of them had xenon headlamps (as did the 3.5 Maximas).
If only thesy had watched JRs headlight restoration videos
I have a 02 max with them and they are awesome. I found a decent pair in a pick apart $20 a piece with ballast for spares. Aftermarket headlights/taillight assemblies are almost always junk.
Just a couple of quick notes: 1. Press and hold the unlock on the fob to have the windows roll down, I think you can hold lock for the windows to close too. 2. Watch out for the rear valve cover leak. If you want to fix it get a valve cover from an 04-above maxima. They were redesigned to not leak as much.
Way Late....Happy 4th!
Mastercrafts are just Dunlops under a different name at a cheaper price. All I run.
Mastercrafts are actually Cooper Tires. Cooper is now owned by Goodyear, who also owns Dunlop. Mastercraft was made by Cooper prior to their acquisition by Goodyear In 2021.
@@RysterARCEESounds very confusing. With car batteries it probably gets worse.
Happy Independence Day !! 🎉
Cheap fixes are always nice, the constant brake lights is a nice touch but bet it's a easy fix, watching now 👍
John, you know how to fix and repair cars. I am impressed 👍👍
Infiniti I35 deserves a second chance and it responds
I can't wait to see another update on this car.
To INFUNITY and bee-yahhhnnd!
Good stuff... that .0001 cent Christmas tree plug is probably the whole reason car was parked. Kept killing battery, then brake locked up from sitting
These were the last of good Nissans. They are built so well.
I hope you continue to make infinity i35 videos I just got mine a 2003 and I really enjoy you’re video
I ran into this exact same issue on my c5 man never experienced it before. My battery is a Optima yellow and the alt was charging at 15v. Car kept dying because the battery was dragging the alt down so fast. New battery and suddenly it runs great.
I've just got a 2004 V6 Camry with 60k miles with more than half life 2016 tires on it 😂.. my tail lights were the other way around, they didn't work at all, just the 3rd center light because obviously they have 2 separate circuits and fuses 😂
Cheap transportation for getting back and forth to work or a kid's first vehicle. Nice find
Jump pack always on old hoopty runs... :)
LOL! "Celebrating getting out from under that tent". If you are from Wichita, you know exactly what he is talking about. LOL!
dead cell my sisters car had exact same issue would charge and restart if done reasonably quickly but leaving a short while....dead battery
That's a decent car for the price!
Good Evening John Ross
You should be carrying the Motocompacto in these cars on test drives that’s literally what they are for originally back in the day to get you home if your car dies
I thumbs up for the I am going downstairs joke.
One good thing if you cant find TH-cam repair videos just look up the Maxima.
Last generation of Maxima made in Japan A33B for 2003 model year until 2004 production moved to Tennesee … also aware I35 was basically a Nissan Cefiro … I purchased a new ‘02 Maxima GLE fully loaded in the day even with the rare CD based navigation. 9 CDs needed for entire US :-) ..IIRC… first vehicle I’d ever had with a heated steering wheel and nav
I just fixed the exact same brake light problem on a relatives 2004 rav4 but I had already ordered a switch lol
Why don’t you do some Watch JR Go branded bonnet and boot struts?
Thanks for the content.
Cheers Pat 🇦🇺
Gotta love the cheap car flipping
Awesome car,hopefully more updates on it
That gurgle when you opened the gas tank could mean that it’s not venting properly. In order for fuel to be pulled out, air needs to be pulled in. Make sure you check all the solenoids and vents associated with the fuel system before troubleshooting the intermittent misfire. If it was a dirt road car then something might be caked with dirt. Sometimes the rubber lines swell shut too.
Title should be "I fixed SOME parts of my cheap Infinity I35 for less than $200."
Same brake light problem happened to my i30
It’s a Honda thing too
Mastercraft tires. Made by Cooper. My Yukon had a new set on it when I bought it.
I don't have any complaints about them so far...
I am a little disappointed that you didn't power brake it while you were in the car wash..
It is best to do it in a friends car.
Hoopty repairs on the 4th of July
I’m jealous
I had a Nissan pickup that little plastic piece break apart and my emergency fix was one thin dime and super glue.
I often thought why is there plastic hole filler button when it would work fine if the hole wasn't there?
To infinity & beyond for the extra mile!
Thanks for saving an A33 bro 👍👍
Got to go back to your roots and fix the headlights
Mastercraft are really common in canada, sold by Canadian Tire as theyre main brand
1:00 reset the brake pedal switch, some just need pulling back out then it’ll reset I’ve done a few on different cars
The "I" in I35 stands for "Inoperative."
That thing would be a bomb first car or pizza delivery vehicle
John let me know how you love the steering angle because when I had my I35 I hated making U turns 😅
In a pinch a penny and a drop of rtv fixes the stop light issue.
Good tires, good AC, good key fob - that's a $3K car. Tune-up and new battery, an easy $3500.
$6000-$7000 in stupid California.
Put your amp clamp on the neg cable see how much charge the battery is excepting.
John, you hve a parasitic draw on your electrical system. You'll have to pull out the multimeter and start checking the circuits at the fuse box. (what a pain in the keester LOL).
Could you bring it to a painter? And let us know what it would cost to spray clear coat on it to make it presentable? And a repair of the drivers seat? I mean it's a nice car.
Need to go back in and buy a battery
I hop you all had a great 4th. What year is the i35 and what’s the be mileage? Go ahead and roast me. I’m sure you answered both questions but I’m sure which video. Did you sell the focus on to a salvage yard? Now that B you’re getting the i36 sorted are you going for drive it awhile or just flip it?
Regane has lots of PEA in it. Good stuff.
Yeee!
...but what about the blinker fluid?
Reliable and Nissan in same sentence don’t belong lol 😂
Nice 😊
Heyo John
Bad Battery, had probably more than 1 bad cell.
All of my altimaMaxima rear lower caliper pin dries out and seizes.
I love my i35
I thought it only went in reverse--what did I miss??
I'll be the first to ask. What will you take for that fine piece of automotive excellence?
ohhhhh THATS what the I stands for
I hope some kid or family that might not have much money ends up with this decent car. (EDIT) Go ahead and spring for new brake lines for the next owner.

@@Cartier_specialist 🤣🤣🤣 Happy 4th. Sorry to burst your Ka Boom bubble.
@@psubusterThat's okay, I got my kaboom long ago but the night before lasts episode JR gave Ryan the boom and he was 3rd.
@@Cartier_specialist yeah, I got hosed on that one. 😂 I chalk it up to the YT app being such trash.
U knew better then using the old battery
for the love of god clean that new shop up. no respectable shop owner leaves crap everywhere.
C’mon guys, I is for Imperfect……
I could use that car.
