I purchased it used, it's a 08 G37s 6mt, W/ premium, navi, and ATS.. wondering if it has this 4WAS system..

Searched on here.. but didn't see anything..

 

Check search the vin number, if not you can call the stealership and give them the vin number and they can tell you.

 

When you start the car up a 4was light should lit up if it's there

 

post a pic of the rear diff and surrounding area

 

If you have the black and silver servo mechanism shown below sandwiched between the GT-Spec bar and the diff, then you have rear active steering.

 

Ah-ha.. I shall check for that servo..thanks mucho

 

this is what your rear axle will look like

 

thanks! I'll check this weekend

 

You can notice it on a hard turn, feels like you're rear is coming loose when its actually not

 

Isn't there a 4WAS button in the car?

 

Not to be a ****...but how do you buy a car and not know exactly what model it is and what options it has?

 

It's just a car pat... It had the key things I wanted.. S, 6mt, navi, low miles, local and black interior..white exterior, clean carfax and maintained. They other options weren't deal breakers. I only found out after I purchased it.. That it had the ATS headlights.. And was curious of this 4steering option. The dealer couldn't tell by vin over the phone..

Figured I'd use the forum since its a helpful environment and tool for car owners. Any other questions on my purchasing habits..? Would you like to know If I check the thread counts on my suits.. Or welds on my exhaust systems as well? You know... Not to be a **** or anything...

 

Well played.

 

LOL hey whatever works for you...but I like to know exactly what I'm buying BEFORE I actually buy it. In regard to your attempt to be funny...yes if your curious about thread count or quality of welds you should look into it BEFORE buying the item. Regardless if its something you "cared" about or not, I would think a buyer would want to know everything about a car he's purchasing in advance...but hey that's just my crazy logic I guess.

 

I think it's all relative Dr. P.

For example, i thought i knew everything i could about this car prior to purchasing but at the end of the day and when all was said and done, the dealership could not tell me anything by looking at the VIN (go figure) and all i had to go by were the photos Carmax in MD shot for me (i'm in TX). I paid for it to be transferred here anyway as it had most of everything else i wanted.

And even then, it wasn't until folks started posting that i found a few other things about the car... like the hidden compartment in the back seats, the secret menu on the screen, AGC *as well as* the damages done to the car that neither Carmax, Carfax nor Autocheck showed.
