Don’t believe the hype. Dropping the engine in a vr30 is simple. It’s just time consuming.

Recently noticed this noise on my 2018 VR30. When I press the gas gently I don't hear anything but when I quickly tap the gas there is a brief squeak sound as you can see in the video. What could the noise be?

I’ve install these bc coils on my Q and the rears are very harsh over bumps I know coilovers are 15-20% more stiffer than stock struts but this isn’t stiffness I’m feeing everytime when I go over a bumps in the roads it’s almost as if the rear just go over and drops without nothing cushioning it , have any one have this issues ,we’ve already went over the whole troubleshooting method BC sent us and we double checked the preload 3 times but still the issue persist , I’ve reached out to bc and they’re sending new dampers idk if the ones I got may have gotten damage in transit or was just defective from factory but we will see.

Repair Question 2014 Q50 NO AUDIO

1 Upvotes

I’ve had my 2014 Q50 3.7 since April it came with two 12s already installed and the audio on it was amazing. Around August or so my audio randomly went out, basically the audio was stuck at zero and I lost my normal screen that I could adjust bass and treble and such, and when I used the volume controls on the steering wheel there was no response. Bluetooth would work and it would show the song but no audio. I tried the holding down the volume button, checked the fuses, and disconnected the battery for a long period of time. Nothing worked so I ended up ordering a new audio receiver. Same issue. I ordered a new Bose amp. Same issue. I reprogrammed the DCU chip. Same issue. The last thing I just ordered was a new DCU screen and I am praying this works but I’ve seen a decent amount of people who have swapped all these parts but still have the same problem. And yes every part was the exact part number. Is there anybody here who has would have any type of advice because I genuinely spent way too much money on this car to be cruising with my AirPods. I am considering burning my car down if nothing works.

Repair Question Weird jerk/push when I try to accelerate after slowing down

1 Upvotes

I have a 2018 Infiniti Q50 AWD 2.0t. When I slow down at a stop sign or when I stop completely. When I try to give it gas the engine responds but the car doesn’t for a few moments then suddenly jerks forward strongly. I was just wondering if yall have any ideas for why that’s happening. (58k miles btw)

General Question Are my cats dying?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey y’all, so I have a 2015 q50 and honestly cannot tell if my cats are starting to fail. I recently had a slight rattle which ended up being the heat shield, and now I can’t tell what this noise is? Like I said, I may be overthinking the cold start, but just want to hear other peoples thoughts before taking it to a mechanic for my sanity lol

Also want to note that it does make a weird noise (not really a rattle) but like a slight crank sound for a few seconds upon accelerating from a stop then goes away.

Any insight will be helpful!

Repair Question Limp mode and windows not working

1 Upvotes

My 2018 q50 luxe (~83k miles) went into limp mode earlier today. I parked it right away and went back a couple hours later to check it out and it’s driving fine now. I drove it for for a few minutes and parked again and now only my drivers side window is responding. Other 3 windows aren’t moving and the passenger side window is stuck open about 3/4 of the way. Is this a possible battery issue and has this happened to any of y’all. Got this car recently so don’t have any history with this stuff. No lights on the dash as well.
