Another Case of dealer not checking tire psi on a new sedan!
I picked up my 05 6mt twilight blue, wheat sedan with aero, premium and splash yesterday. The car runs great and I am very happy with it. On my way home I notice it is riding a little rough and the tires are making alot of noise. Sure enough they are all filled to 45psi...unbelievable. It is irresponsible and down right dangerous. I am calling the dealer Tuesday to complain.
I am coming out of an 04 coupe 6mt. Though I like the sedan, there is definitely something special about the coupe. But enough about that.
My car came with 2 key fobs, 1 standard key, 1 valet and 1 wallet key. My coupe last year came with 2 standard keys...am I missing something? Shouldn't they have given me 2? How many did you get?
Thats all for now.

I don't understand this either. Why is it so hard for the prep staff do to their jobs properly? It's what they do for a living!
Mine had between 48 psi and 52 psi all around IIRC. Pissed me off something fierce. What's better, Nissan? A few out-of-round tires as a result of storing them at a reasonable inflation pressure, or some poor lady who suffers a blowout and careens across the median into oncoming traffic at 70 mph in the dead of summer as she drives her new G35 home? Lawyers have wet dreams about exactly what Nissan is doing here.

I too have had both Coupe and Sedan and found good and bad with both. Terrific rides tho.
All my Nissans/Infinitis have come with 2 master keys, one valet key and 1 wallet key. (as well as 2 fobs). You're missing a master key.

I took delivery with all four exactly at 42 psi. This is alot high psi than I have ever run, but I have never run 45 profile tires. I "assumed" my dealer knew what they were doing.
Does anyone know what the max tire pressure that Bridgestone recommends? Nevermind, I just checked tirerack and they say 51 psi max. so these pressures may be harsh, but not dangerous, right?

Forty-five psi may not be dangerous according to Bridgestone, but 52 psi on 130-degree pavement may very well be. Seems silly for a dealer to take that chance. If I were the owner, I'd ream the prep staff who non-checked my tires a new one.
