engine or transmission problem???

My new G35 sedan has only 600 miles on it. The problem is it seems something wrong when it accelerates and rpm is about 1700-1900. The engine feels under power and the car fees a little shaking and lauder noise. I suspect it maybe the engine knocking.


Is it all right or something wrong with it.


Thanks,



//G35_CB coming in!

Re: engine or transmission problem???

That's a tough one to diagnose from this distance man, but after 600 miles you know what's normal engine sound and any abnormal vibrations. The best thing for you to do is hightail it to the dealership and let them have a listen (and drive). It may be something real simple or something a little more complex. Whatever the case, you must show them the car for evaluaton in case of something serious. Great warranty- just use it. ....Good luck....

Check to see if the foot brake is on, if so tap it off. Haha!! My past experience with a test drive car. I feel sorry for whoever bought that one. =P

Hi, Gsedanman,

You are right, I should visit the dealer. I booked the service on next week, and will let you guy know how it goes.

Rumble: the brake is of course is off. otherwise it will have a warnning light on the dash, right?

Correct, but my dad didn't seem to notice it when we test drove the car...maybe he's getting old. LOL

Carefull Rumble, You think your Dad's getting old.. Man he's younger than ME. What do you think I am ANCIENT j/k LOL
By the way man : I just picked up my Coupe and after driving home (15 km) now there's 29 on it) I love it-- this is the one... (a keeper) ..........I'll post pics soon as I buy my 'ELPH' (I'm getting the S-200 with extra memory card from Staples for 399 + memory card) Both the S-200 & S-230 apparently are very popular digitals right now so I'm going in soon. Don't need the extra resolution in the 230 for 8x10's or smaller so the 200 and card will suit me. I think the guy said the card was good for 60 seconds of movie. Can't wait. .....
Love this Coupe, man it is AWESOME
