Congrats bythabay!! I too am a proud ownwer of a 2011 g37S 6mt! Mine black on black. I'm close to the 1200 mile break in period and I was wondering if you got the dealer to replace all your fluids or did you do it yourself? If the dealer did it, did they care that you wanted to replace them with redline and amsoil products? I'm looking forward to adding the fluids you recommended! Sometimes the shifting can be a little rough. Congrats on the purchase and enjoy in good health!

I did it myself, it's very easy - you can use the g35 videos for fluid replacement, they would be identical on the g37.

I think only one of the videos was on my G35, others were from other Gs. It did get totaled unfortunately and got sold to a scrap metal yard somewhere. Now that most of the legal dust has settled and I can talk about it, I will be able to post some photos. Basically a woman was trying to merge onto the highway and just plain didn't see me - crashed into me at 30mph while I was at a complete stop.
