Exclamation Faulty Fuel meter reading

Hi there guys,

i have a faulty fuel pump which causes a crazy up and down going fuel gauge. Somebody wants to sell me a new 2008 g35 fuelpump.. i know the car are almost the same except for the engine...

the question is.. Will this pump work on my 2009 G37s?

thanks guys

There are threads about this issue and how to fix it. The solution is to clean the contacts on the fuel gauge sending unit really well with some Lectra Motive electrical contact cleaner. That is much easier and cheaper than replacing a fuel pump that is working perfectly fine.

Yes, the fuel pump is exactly the same on an 08 and an 09.
