took my bumper off to see how badly damaged or clogged my radiator...here it is


got under the car and this is what I found.... As you can see, right above the hose, there is a connector that is broken. What is that connector for?
Edit: tried to unscrew that bolt from the top. As soon as I've loosened it up a bit, oil started to drip. So my guess, is that its a sensor that has something to do with oil.


And of course, this is the socket that goes into it.


Where can I get this connector and can anyone tell me what is it for? Thank you!

When should left rad fan kick in and when should the right one?
Right one comes on, but you can tell it is not spinning at its full speed, but at least it kicks in. Its the left one that worries me. It does not kick in at all!

Right one should work during normal driving.
Left one comes on during heavy traffics...
If you're left one never comes on then you have to replace the fuse that I mentioned in my earlier post.
The right one will not spin at a full speed, somebody correct me if I am wrong
However, the left one will

That looks like the power steering pressure sensor.

THank you! I will ask a dealer about it, see what they will say.

As far as fans...left one doesn't even start, no matter how hot my engine is. The right one, starts only when I turn A/C on, but still not at full speed.
Checked both fuses and they are working just fine.

+1 for you K67p67...it is power steering pressure sensor. Wend to a dealer and thats exactly what they said it was. The kicker is that in order to fix it, the part will cost me $350 for the whole unit, because they don't sell just that sensor!

As far as the fans. friend of the family has a diagnostic tool. Going to see if he can hook me up....literally, hook me up to that tool

Extended factory warranty. Dealership will replace or repair this for free. I took mine in and they even gave me a brand new Infiniti rental for the day while they replaced my fan. Look into it.

I've checked with a dealer and was told there is no extended factory warranty on 06 coups, since there were no recalls on this type of issue.
