As always, additional participants for the coupe would be very helpful.

We have updated results for the G35 and G37 to include owner experiences through June 30, 2010. Other sources of car reliability information won't cover the more recent months until the summer or even fall of next year.

Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:

2008: insufficient responses

2006: 56, about average

2005: 60, about average

2004: 39, better than average

2003: 78, about average

We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds," to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop.

The percentage with no repairs is about 54 for the 2003, 77 for the 2004, and 72 for the 2006, while the percentage of lemons is less than one for all three years.

Nada-odds and Lemon-odds car reliability stats

Thank you, once again, to everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in November and February. The more participants we have, the better the information we can provide.

Especially need a few more responses for the 2007 coupe.

We have updated results for the G35 to include owner experiences through September 30, 2010. Other sources of car reliability information won't cover the months since April until the summer or even fall of next year.

Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:

2007 coupe: insufficient responses

2006: 48

2005: 57

2004: 40

2003: 78

All are now better than average.

We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds," to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop.

These stats for the years we had enough data:

2006: 70, < 1

2004: 70, < 1

2003: 50, < 1

I have a 2003 Coupe and the only issues I have had in 4 years is passenger window not working properly and the cam sensors failed on a long trip onetime. Good luck!

Updated results later this month. We continue to especially need more participants for the 2007 coupe.

We have some new pages that display all reported repairs by problem area:

2005 Infiniti G35 problem reports

From this page it's possible to select a different model year or specify a problem area.

We have updated results for the G35 to include owner experiences through December 31, 2010. Other sources of car reliability information won't cover the months since last April until the summer or even fall of this year.

Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:

2006: 44

2005: 56

2004: 52

2003: 79

The 2003 is about average, though very close to "better than average" while the others are all better than average.

We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds," to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop.

These stats for the years we had enough data:

2006: 61, < 1

2005: 71, 4

2004: 60, < 1

2003: 49, < 1

The 2007 coupe is about average, though very close to "better than average" while the others are all better than average.

To revive an old thread...

Got my G Cpe 6mt back in Sept of 2003:

Items repaired under warranty:
A/C system - entire system replaced after 6mo with it under warranty.
BOSE stereo replaced once under warranty


Wear and Tear Replacements:
Window motor - on 4th driver's side only.
Clutch Arm - broke
Clutch
Belts
On 3rd battery
Shocks/Struts
Brembo Rotors (Original ones held up until 2011) even with heavy usage and occasional track usage.
Only thing still annoying me that I've yet to fix is the fuel gauge issue...

Have used only NGK Iridium plugs, Mobil 1 / Motul / Redline fluids for the car.

I'm on 183,000 mi and she still runs strong; I'd say I'm very happy with the reliability so far.
