Ok I bought my '05 6mt g35 literally on Friday night. And come saturday while driving around the neighborhood I stalled the coupe and after restarting the service engine light came on. I haven't called Infiniti yet, but I was wondering if anyone had any idea why it would just come on. The car seems to run fine, no problems with shifting, clutch feels fine, but this light is bothering the hell out of me

 

and its not the gas tank cap

 

have you done any mods at all? maybe intake?
IMO just bring it to the dealer. Maybe there's something wrong with the MAF sensor.

 

nah no mods yet. yea, the first thing the service rep suggested was gas cap heh. hopefully i'll get a loaner...

 

Actually I think it could be a problem with the emissions control system...I can smell sulfur dioxide (smells like eggs or something) and someone in another thread said that the problem could be with the emissions, so that would explain the engine light...

 

I think it's nomal to have that smell during the first few days after you bought your car. Why don't you just bring it to the dealer, instead of guessing what might be the problem?

 

yea takin it in on thursday...but I'm just trying to reassure myself its not a catastrophic problem =)
