Brake Fluid & Power Steering Fluid Low

Hey guys,

so i recently got a g35 and i just checked today and the brake fluid and the power steering fluid is low. these fluids don't normally get spent really quick right? I'm wondering if these fluids were used up by me or if they were not properly filled by the dealer who sold it to me.

they are both at the min line..

in anycase, what brake fluid and powersteering fluid is good for the an 05 G?

I'm not sure about powersteering, but brake fluid can be low if your pads are worn out. If so, don't top it.

Did you check your fluids right after shutting down the car? If not, how long did you wait?

DOT 3 brake fluid I believe just go buy some from autozone or something and top it off.... You may have a powersteering leak.. Get that checked out

I bought it from a hyundai dealership in san jose..

i got an inspection from beshoff infiniti - did a 230 point inspection.

They didn't find anything with the fluids or anything..

i'm getting my power door locks issue resolved and they also found something with my suspension. both are covered under warranty so they are replacing those parts.

yeah, im a bit worried also.
