2012 g37x idle noise
Hi all,
I am currently looking into purchasing a 2012 g37x with 47k miles on it. I took it for two test drives and overall it felt pretty good, however i noticed that when I would come to a stop or come to a red light, I could hear this deep gurgle/rumble/idk what else noise. It almost sounded as if it had modded exhaust. Does anyone know if this is just the way these cars sound at idle, or is there something potentially wrong with that? I also hear a slight whine when I'm going slow and press the accelerator slightly. Any help is appreciated.

Spend the $150 and have the vehicle inspected by an Infiniti dealer. They can run the VIN number, give you a service history, and confirm that the vehicle was originally purchased in your state and not elsewhere where flooding may have occurred.
Any defects uncovered by the dealer can be used to negotiate the price to cover any possible needed repairs.

Purchasing any used car carries a risk. Only 47k miles, it was hardly driven.

A PPI was a must coming from the Euro crowd and that $150 could save you thou$and$ in the long run
