oil around spark plug
I have a 2004 G35 sedan with 105K. I am changing spark plugs. Everything going well until I took out my last plug (passenger side closest to firewall). The plug had oil around it and in the threads. The coil had a little on the very end of it. No oil leak on top running down that I can find. The car has been running well. I am freakin out. Anyone know what is going on? Thanks, Volintn

It's not that big of a deal.
Take a deep breath, dry the oil out, finish your plug change, and read this thread WITHOUT panicking: https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-cou...rranty-up.html
There are two solutions.
1) Replace the valve cover. ---> http://infinitipartsonline.com
2) There is a vendor that has the gaskets only. ---> https://g35driver.com/forums/vendor-...lve-cover.html
2 is the cheaper option.
But yes, as ^ mentioned, you really should search, there are abundant threads on the subject.

I do not have permission to access the above link - is there some kind of paid premium access this forum has?

Hmm. I wonder how the vendors feel that their products are only available to a subsection of those that visit the site - and I am guessing, a small subsection. I'm not saying the premium membership isn't worth it, I don't know any details about it. But from a vendor's position, that sucks.

I changed my first set of plugs at 70k and had a pool of oil in one of the tubes. Fast forward to 160k when I changed the plugs for the second time. Very little oil, more like oil condensation. I have no problems and never gad a misfire. Basically, relax its no big deal. My car now has 170k.
