Hello All!
I haven't had my G37X very long and I just noticed a small amount of vibration in the steering wheel at high speeds (over 70 MPH). It's subtle and didn't notice it until I was on a longer road trip. I had my wheels and tires checked and balanced but it didn't go away. Is this normal for the AWD version or is this something that can be resolved?

 

 

I second the recommendation of a road force balance. If they know what they are doing this should fix the problem. That being said, I have had problems like this that did not go away until I replaced tires.

 

I had them check again and they did rebalance 3 of the tires. It seemed to help but it's not completely gone. I think you may be right about the tires. I'll look them up. I bet they're just cheap tires. I haven't owned the vehicle very long and they're what was on it when I got it.

 

Do you have the original Infiniti wheels or are they aftermarkets? If they aren't originals and the aftermarkets don't have hub adapter rings that is a likely cause for the vibration you're experiencing.

 

The wheels are still OEM. I checked and the tires are Uniroyal Tiger Paw AS65 and from what I could tell they're just cheap Wal-Mart tires. Is this my problem?

 

 

I had a similar issue with a previous car and it turned out there was a dent in the rim. It was on the inside of the tire so not easily noticed.

 

I did as suggested and swapped the tires front-to-back. I think this may have solved the problem. I haven't had an opportunity to drive at higher speeds for any length of time but assuming that the vibration is gone I guess it's safe to assume that there is either a tire or wheel problem of some sort on one of the two tires/wheels that are now on the back.
