Ahh the joys of the 5AT.

 

Sometimes I wish I would have gotten the AT instead of the MT.

 

I hate that I want my G super clean, so I have to wash it twice a week.

Plus I hate that the 2nd gen sunroof is twice as loud as the 1st gen.

 

I dont know if its just my G, but My car will automatically roll down my window when its hot outside, cool feature if thought through, but really dont like it drives me nuts

 

Loud as in what? Operation noise? Or does it rattle and pop every time?

If it rattles and pop, the bolts are loose and you need to just retorque it. It'll cost you about $125 for labor.

 

Pretty sure you need to have that checked out. Haha.

I you hold the unlock button on your remote it will roll down your windows. Make sure you aren't doing that on accident somehow. It's probably a messed up relay or something

 

And oh yeah, this car is hot as hell. Driving in 60 degrees weather at NIGHT and it was freaking hot. Makes no sense.

And the AC stank when you turn it off. And I always let the air run for at least 10 minutes after turning the AC off. It still stank.

 

I liked the cup holders in my 03 5AT sedan. Huge! But in the Z? They're behind my elbow?! But there is one that pops out of the dash more on the passenger side which I use.

But gas mileage wasn't that fantastic on my G.. Maybe 24 hwy and 19 city? I get about 19 city 29 hwy in the Z though (6MT non revup) I have friends with 6MT sedans that get wonderful gas mileage. Over 400 miles per tank! (like my Z )

 

That it's not pushing well over 300hp

 

Im confused im talking about in ththe car ill the car ill auto roll up the windows jump out and then they roll back down drives me .its

 

There are 3 things that bother me about my g35:
1. the headlights always get foggy and yellow it seems like more than any other car
2. my cd player stopped working out of nowhere so now it doesnt read disks, and of course my warranty had expired when it went out so i couldnt get it fixed, the car is 2 new for it to stop working for no reason
3. it doesnt have an auxillary jack so as i mentioned above with no cd player or auxillary jack ive had to find an alternative way to find music the only thing i found was an fm transfmitter that you get static with

2 things I wish it had:
6 speed for AT
around 30 more hp
Other than that its a great car I love it!!

 

The creaks and rattles.

How slow it is.

Probably the best car overall I have had in my lengthy track record though, it is what it is.

 

These both happened to mine. Luckily there are easy fixes for both of them.

1. Get the 3M headlight restoration kit. It is around $20 and works great. I used it on my old WRX.

2. I sent my CD player off to some guys in California (I think) that fix them for around $150. I found them on eBay. They were fast and everything works now.

 

In response:

1. This does work wonders if your headlights haven't oxidized badly or bad scratches in them. I ended up getting brand spanking new headlights for my 03 sedan w/ HIDs. Was much happier spending a good amount of money to have them look as good as they did then.

2. This is a good fix if you're on a low budget and want to simply fix the error. If you want to spend a few extra bones and upgrade I'd highly recommend it. The CD players ALL go bad in these cars. I spent the extra cash, got the double DIN kit, and installed just a Pioneer single DIN. The sound quality improved significantly and having direct iPod control, etc was more than worth it.

 

I'm sure this has been said already, but MPG. I wish my G averaged 24-27 MPG like my bro's GS300.
