Few months ago, I had purchased Infiniti G37X. And the dealer claimed that the maintenance was done on it by their shop. Up until today, it seems like all they did was inspection and nothing seemed to be changed on the 29700 miles.
I thought all the proper maintenance was done so I took a journey trip to LA from WA. Now after the oil change, I realized that the 30k maintenance was not done. I did change rotors and brake pads on the rear and I did have front rotors polished and brake pads replaced.
I just purchased Cabin and Engine Air filters which I am going to replace. My tires are pretty bad so I did not do tire rotation. Most likely I'll be replacing them after this season.

So the Schedule 1 and 2 maintenance that I see on the schedule for 30k miles is to replace brake fluid and install the in-cabin microfilter and engine air filter.

Also I see an Optional Premium Upgrade
Lubricate all locks/hinges
Replace automatic transmission fluid
Replace differential oil
Replace engine drive belts
Replace radiator cap
Replace transfer case oil (AWD, My is G37X)
replace wiper blades (Good condition still)

Now that I'm wondering, is anything of this needed? seems like most of it is pretty useless at this stage with 34400 miles on it.
I've heard that the transmission fluid shouldn't be replaced not until 60k+ miles. Some claim that its lifetime on the 7 speed and it doesn't have anything on the bottom to drain it.

What would I need to have done on it thats recommended? Which products should I purchase? Ill have someone else replace the fluids that need to be replaces. I'm a new G37 owner so please bare with me.

Thanks!

 

What year is it?

What is a break?

 

Excuse me for my horrible spelling. Edited the post. I meant brake pads. The year is 2012 G37X

 

Brake fluid (inc clutch fluid if applicable) every 2 years
FSM says to change the diff/gear box oil every 2 years or 30K miles, which ever comes first.

Coolant and radiator cap, I'd just do a drain and fill every 3-4 years.

Belt, as needed or 5-6 years.

Engine filters are easy, cabin air is doable with a long Philips screw driver. There's a DYI thread on here for that.

If it were my car and I plan to keep it a long time I'd do a drain/fill on the trans too. There's a DYI or you can take it to a dealer/competent repair shop. It is somewhat involved.

Majority of maintenance on this car is very DYI and reasonably priced for parts. If you have any mechanical ability save the $$ and do it yourself.

The whole idea of preventative maintenance is to prevent an issue down the line. You don't do a coolant drain/fill after your radiator fails because of calcium deposits. By then you're replacing a lot more.

 

Thanks for your reply! I'll try to do the maintenance myself that I could do. Could you please throw in what products to use for Brake Fluid, differential oil? For the gearbox oil, ill just go to the dealership and buy their oil.
Thanks!

 

^^There's already existing threads discussing parts/fluids. Use the search function please and/or look in the DYI section.

 

What I'm wondering is about the Automatic Transmission Fluid weather to replace it at 34k miles. Wouldn't that be overkill for that mileage?

 

30k miles and already need to replace tires? Guessing they were never rotated

Their is a drain plug for the transmission tho.

 

The tires the car had weren't stock and some are different. I don't even know if they were rotated. Could you please link me to the transmission plug? I might have to have shop doing it for me. The dealer will be $400+

 

Ditch the dealer. Just did my 30K maintenance for $80. I know dealer would charge me up the ****.

Replace brake fluid every 2 years? Why? Seems sense-less to me.I've never replaced brake fluid in any car I've owned. Unless it gets contaminated some how .... I find this to be over-kill. But hey, maybe I'm uninformed and ignorant.

 

Brake fluid absorbs water. That's the idea behind changing it ever so often.

Don't forget; brake fluid is the lifeblood of the ABS and VDC systems, too.

 

It was -1F tonight on my way home. I can see a reason why some may want to put this into their clutch and brakes.

The valvoline dot4 I'm currently using in the brake system felt reasonably ok at these temps but the clutch had rather poor feel.

 

Again, if you have the time, and inclination you can save some $$$.
