60k Warranty Bumper-to-Bumper

Hey There!

I recently purchased an 07 G35-s with 58k miles on it. The bumper to bumper warranty is about to expire and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good "checklist" of items that I should inspect myself prior to hitting that 60k point.

A few things I already noticed and had the dealer fix were:

1. Driver side headlight not turning smoothly around corners; replaced headlight assembly
2. Single Rear Passenger side LED light was out; replaced rear taillight assembly
3. Front rotors had vibration and noise when braking; resurfaced rotors and replaced brake pads
4. Cup holder plastic clip was broken; fixed clip

I am looking for as many things to fix as possible before my warranty expires. If you know of something "common" that most G35s suffer from then please let me know so I can get it inspected and fixed as soon as possible!

Thanks for the help.

I don't know why they didn't give you new rotors, heat shield and pads under the tsb but oh well..
Just a few things I had replaced under warranty:
*TSB on valve body 3 times (slight shudder on acceleration)-not common issue on G's
*TSB on sunroof, outside lining cracking (replaced sunroof)
*TSB weather stripping on all four doors
*TSB on gas tank (I could only fill it about half way), replaced some kind of ring
*TSB on steering wheel and all door handles (replaced door handles and steering wheel)
*TSB on driver seat (driver seat would rock slightly when braking)-not common issue on G's

Bailey, thanks for the feedback. I'm going to spend some time today inspecting those areas on my car!

Bailey, was the replaced steering wheel and door handles a result of the coating on both areas peeling off or getting scratched off easily or for something else?

Also, do you know of some good resources that I can go check out for additional TSBs?

I found a gov website: http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/tsbs but I actually did not find all of your TSBs on there.

The steering wheel and door handles were replaced because they were badly scratched. I "think" members on here posted the tsb's but if not I just asked the dealer to research it they should know anyway. I would just say there is tsb out on so and so and they would say o.k.

Thanks everyone for the help...right at 59950 miles I got the following things fixed:

1. Weather stripping for Driver-side door replaced, other 3 doors had adhesive applied.
2. Driver-side armrest was replaced due to scratches
3. Cup holder replaced (Spring in the plastic clip that holds the cups was broken)
4. A/C Compressor replaced. We had (and still have) belt noise when the A/C is on...the dealer replaced the A/C compressor to "fix" this.

*TSB air conditioner was loud so they replaced the ac/compressor right at 59,990miles.
And the black shiny outter door panels between the windows. I forgot what they are called but it was with the first few months I owned the car.

Rutland, not sure if this question was directed to me. But yes, they replaced all heat shields, all rotors and pads under warranty.

It was directed to the OP as he said "Front rotors had vibration and noise when braking; resurfaced rotors and replaced brake pads", but thanks for answering. I should check to see if I can get that done as well.
