rattles
dipstick
mods are fairly expensive

 

K, I'll contribute. I've had my 03' DP G35/6MT for almost 2 and 1/2 weeks now. I love this car. It's my first 2 seater, first sports car, first car with actual 'power' (considering i went from a 2002 base model lancer to this), and it's my first manual trans. love it and i get a ton of compliments by strangers and friends alike...however....

1. I Don't like how there is no memory for the seat...I have to always tell people to get in through the passenger side.

2. Who in the hell designed the "headlight switch"? I mean, it's totally in the wrong order..It really should read "parking lights, (auto), low beams , high's"...It's not a serious problem at all. But it's just kind of something I just don't like.

3. The seatbeat issue of it hitting the door..it drives me nuts!

4. Last but definately not leasdt..I know what I was getting into when I bought this 3.5L V6...but sheeeshh..I drive like an old lady (partially cause im a newb with a manual tranny, and it gets "deeeeeeeeeceeeeeeeeeent" gas mileage..I haven't even pushed this thing yet over 4k rpm..i'm scared :P

^^ i bet it's fun as hell with the VDC off (save it for a rainy day and an open parking lot :P

Aight guys. peace

 

i hate that when it snows over 6 inches.. my car is now a snow plow. driving on the HW after its been partially cleared off, at 45 MPH, and then a huge chunk of snow/ice gets pushed into my lane and i have to hit it.. sorry bumper... it sounds soo bad..

 

I hate the sunroof cracking/creaking noise with a passion

 

I think I hate that too but I can't really isolate that noise over all the other ones......rearview mirror, seatbelt, rear deck, door panel, center console.........

 

all the rattles coming from the backseat/trunk, and the cheapness of the interior (compared to my old S4)

 

I don't understand how everybody with aftermarket GPS's (Garmin, Tom Tom etc.) are having a problem with the power outlet in the armrest...

I have no problems running my Garmin Power cord out the side of the armrest, and running the wire to the side of the cubby, where my Garmin fits nicely. When i close it[the armrest], it makes the magnetic connection, and my cord isn't getting squished.

I'll snap some pics.

Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics...

Armrest Closed


Out the side of the armrest


Down the center console (you can even tuck it under the plastic)


Up to the center cubby


And voila!


i have it attached to the window mount, and kind of wedged it in there so that it doesnt move

 

urgh, i forgot to mention i've been hearing rattling sounds from my exhaust

 

Some little thing I just found out I hate about my G is the damn clock. Trying to adjust it 1/2 day different is just a pita. Damn needle is slowly moving.

 

If you hold it down it will speed up after a few seconds

 

I HATE ALL RATTLES, it's even worse that I can't find exactly where they are coming from!

 

The only thing I hate about my G is the fact that it records every mile I put on it.
All I want to do is drive it but when I drive it, all I can think about is how it's getting that much closer to it's end of life.

I hate nothing about my G.

 

i hate how after i wash my rims (with brembos) the brake dust is right back on in 3 days

and also that the value of the G is really low now

 

I do know how to hold it down you know =)

 

Mr Exclusive, its a pain in the *** for the us because the center console of the 07+ sedan are designed very differently.

Alex D.........wow, thats a lot of negative for the G35, i am beginning to wonder if you test drove it first, or even sat in it before you signed the paperwork, lol.
