Is it highly recommended to go to the dealer? They want $400. They are also recommending a fuel induction cleaning service for $180 - I don't think I'll get it done there.

 

if you can have a trusted shop do it it would be better but if not i say the dealer.

and do the stuff you can yourself to save money like oil, air filter ect...

 

+1 just make sure you keep all part and service receipts to keep your waranty intact...

 

This is what I was gonna ask..what if you do it yourself?

 

save yourself the money change the oil, incabin filter, radiator fluid, trans and diff...you can change your plugs now or wait till 60k miles along with the belts

 

i went to the infiniti stealership in edmonton here. For the 48k service, they change the coolant, diff, tranny, engine fluids. I thought that sounded nice, but then i asked for the price.

upwards of $600-$800. . .

**** that. . .so i went to mopac and bought royal purple diff, tranny and engine oil. $183.50. . .

plus the $10 oil filter from infiniti.

 

I actually recommend having the fuel injection cleaned if you have never had it done before. i recently had mine cleaned and it fixed the problem of my car would cut off when I had it out for short trips unless I gave it some gas. Along with the cleaning I had a reflash done though so it's up to you.

 

Yea would it make a difference if I did at the dealership (fuel injection cleaning)?

 

how much did this cost you? i plan on having it done soon

 

Ask Nissan. Same parts, I think my 41K service was about $258. I pay $21 for oil change at Nissan (same oil they use on the 350Z).
