There's been a weeping buildup of PS fluid gunk on my rack since the day I got it. I've never seen my bin get low, and don't remember ever adding fluid. That doesn't mean my mechanic or the dealership didn't add fluid over the last 6 years, but I never did.

 

Interesting. I had the car up in the air trying to diagnose my front suspension squeak and noticed it. I'd have noticed if it accumulated enough to drip on the garage floor. Was yours in the same place?

Maybe it's normal

 

I just bought my car from a 2 plate state and I live in a 1 plate state. Are the bumper plugs color matched? Where'd you get 'em?

 

Yep, they're color matched and cost a stupid amount of money for what amounts to plastic trees with paint on them. You could probably do it yourself with a pair of plastic trees and a paint touchup pen. BumperPlugs.com

 

Go to Lowes and get yourself two plugs. Paint them and be done. I bought the paint pen from Infiniti, easy job. You'll have to play with the size and see what fits more snug.

So Infiniti inspected the weeping steering rack today and is replacing it. According to my service advisor the part is $2800

I find that cost kinda hard to believe but whatever, it is covered under the extended warranty.

I also asked them to look at the front suspension and see if they could diagnose the squeaking over speed bumps. They said they couldn't find anything wrong. The service manager told me it's likely due to being lowered and when he saw the car, expected it to be far worse than it was

 

Finally replaced my clock which burned out like a year or more ago. I've even had a replacement clock sitting around for the last few months and haven't gotten around to it. So easy, took all of 20 minutes and makes a world of difference on how nice the centre are looks.

 

Mine still flickers from time to time but is mostly off. Need to hit some scrapyards and see if I can snag a new one. Don't want to pay $250+ for a new one. Might just solder a new LED into it.

 

The one I just put in came from a wrecked G. I've got a friend that works at a wrecker so he was able to grab it for me before it got parted out. I'll likely take my original one apart and redo the solders then either keep it for when this one dies out or list it on here.

 

I have an extra clock.... I need to test it but pretty sure it works. Bought it to do a custom blue LED one but never did it.

 

Thanks. The Steelers logo adds stressful Sundays to my life.

 

Finally got a warm day well 40 warm for us up here in Boston at this time.
installed my tail as turn mod by diode dynamics that my sister got me for Christmas, litterlay took me 5 minutes very easy install. looks awesome very happy with it and will never see it!! Also put in my weather tech window deflectors love them as well very sleek match trim color perfect look oem! Also detailed interior. good day for the g.

now about too make a couple calzones for the game. let' go pats!!

 

^^Can you post a few pics of the window deflectors? How do they install?

Does it cut down on wind noise at higher speeds with the window partially open?

 

I can't really show the amazing action in pictures (sorry for the crappy quality) but I recently installed the Diode Dynamics tail as turn module for my sedan and it looks freaking amazing. I wish I can see it as I drive, but knowing how great it looks makes me feel proud.

 

It really is a nice, subtle change. Makes our rear tails look just like a Dodge Stratus.
