Infiniti QX4 2000 mi:203k Power steering issue. Working fine until I used 4WD. Now regardless of 2WD / Auto / or 4WD steering very hard.

1993 Infinity G20 automatic 150k
Transmission had been slipping occasionally, happened most often when I would slow down and accelerate again, (say from 50 to 25, and back up again). Then, when accelerating moderately from an intersection, there was a pop/clunk and the transmission was completely disengaged -reverse, drive, park, made no difference. The car rolls in any gear even Park. A local engine mechanic mentioned the linkage and/or bands, and found the transmission fluid was low, said it could have got dry and burned up.

How do you replace the bulb for the clock in an 2003 Infiniti FX35

1999 Infiniti G20. 145,000 miles. Auto trans. This problem just started recently. As you accelerate a humming noise increases in pitch throughout acceleration. It sounds like when you pass a large 4WD truck with monster tread tires…that whirring, humming sound. It does not happen while in neutral while stationary and revving the engine, so I know it’s not an engine bearing – only while on the road while moving. It does happen while coasting in neutral at speed. The trans also shifts perfectly so I don’t think it’s involved and the tire pressure is correct ,so I put it up on blocks and got underneath. It appears to be coming from down near the transmission/differential or axles. But this car had both axles replaced less than a year ago. Originally, I thought it might be the wheel bearings. But when I lifted the car and wiggled the wheels, I found no play and the noise seemed to be coming from farther in than at the area where the wheel bearings would be. It was there even while spinning the wheels freely by hand while on the lift. I think this car has a differential bearing and wonder about that or maybe it’s the wheel bearings and I just didn’t hear the location correctly. Or maybe the axles were done wrong…? Can anybody help me identify this problem? Thanks! – JL

how do i disconnect the alarm system on a 1999 infinity qx4?

I have a 2004 Infiniti G35X. When the car is idleing it won’t blow heat. (it blows cold air) While you are driving it blows good heat. I had one mechanic tell me that the water pump propellers are worn down so at idle it doesn’t pump enough water. Could this be the problem?
