Should I return my g35 Sedan???
I got my g35 sedan. 60k miles 2003.
The dealer gave me 30day warranty on major parts.
I still had to paid 340 for repairs.
The car still has a Check Engine Light on.
After 2 days of driving the car broke down. The gas throttle needed to be replaced. The car lost power and was unable to move.
After replacing the throttle body the car acted funny. Whenever you break and the car shiftsdown the revs shoot up by 1k. When breaking it feel a little dangerous because i feel like the car pulls forwards. Also the engine idle is high, or I feel that it's hight 1100rpm.
My friend check out the car and he said that the throttle body looks used. It looks more oxidized than my old one. Also, we found 2 more problems,
Code:
P0550 : PowerSteering sensor
P0113 : Air Intake Pressure & temperature (i think)
It looks as if the codes were erased before purchase.
What do you think of the revving up problem? Should I get my money back for the repair? Do you think I should keep the car?
Thanks,
Marcin

Did I mention I would probably return it?
FYI - my car was bought as an auction car. 4th owner, well maintained up til 107k. I bought it with 123k on it. I've had it over a year and a half now.. and have had ZERO problems or complaints (knock on wood). If my car at that high mileage has given me no issues... i wouldn't trust that many eff ups in the first week or two.

Lemon laws are not enforceable if you're the second owner.
Is your "dealer" a Nissan or Infiniti dealer? If not, use them instead and have this dealer pay for the repairs. It sounds to me like car's problems are a very easy fix. The problem is most likely a vacuum leak or a throttle body issue or a MAF sensor issue or an incorrect air idle/throttle position setting or a combination of those. The car's ECU should clearly tell a Nissan/Infiniti tech using a factory Consult II computer where the problem(s) are. All those problems are easy to address IF you're a qualified Nissan/Infiniti tech or well versed G35 DIYer.
BTW, they're "brakes", not breaks.

this is not true. The law requires that the vehicle is "new". However, a two-year old used car sold with the remaining one year portion of a manufacturer's three-year new car warranty would be defined under the law as new.

I agree with this statement. It doesn't matter though (the lemon law thing)... I think you should be able to return the car to the dealer PERIOD. it has barely even been a week right? just return it for a full refund and tell them make it THEIR problem.

Lol it wont be their problem, they will just sell it to some unsuspecting customer
