Thanks...
Yea I will post what I do and how much everything costs.. The reason I am asking is because the service manual that came with the car is different than; the dealership, the online infiniti service webpage and the nissan dealer. I was just wondering what guys have replaced that did their 30k service..
My local dealership wants 600. I will itemize everything I do. Here is what I have so far.
Change Oil/Filter.
Change Air Filter.
Change Micro Filter.
Change and Flush Coolant.
Change Rear Diff Fluid.
Ill check everything I can.. Anything I am missing?

include what i've listed.. if your AT they might include a tranny flush too..
Infiniti shop times to $ are something like
$200 for breaks (a pair)
$200 for flushes (yep careful)
and rest is less then $50.. =\
when u go ask for a discount.. iono if it is true at all infiniti dealers but managers and advisors are able to give 10%

Everyone asks this and there's no firm answer. A dealer will tell you to ensure your warrenty coverage you should have them done, but thats really more so they can get your service money.
At the end of the day it depends on how fussy the particular dealer is and what the problem is that you need repaired under warranty.
If the type of problem you are having looks like could be a result of bad maintenance such as not changing the oil or a bad A/C because the microfilter is clogged, they can deny you coverage if they can prove that your lack of maintenance caused the damage. The prove goes both ways. They may ask for prove that you did the maintenance, but really they have to prove you did not do it to deny you coverage. I think if you ask around the most common denials of service are done because of aftermarket parts and not service checks...
The 30k checkup is mostly filters and inspections; the tranny and coolant change is deemed "only if necessary" after inspections in the service manual.

I believe this has been tried in the courts before (imagine that) and the receipt of purchasing the requiste parts was good enough to prove the recommended work has been done. That was reasonable proof the work had been done as who would know enough to pruchase all those things, then not do the work to install them. The funny thing is, my Jeep has 146,000 miles on it, and the only things I've ever changed are the coolant, oil, and transmission fluid (once). It has the original brake fluid (holy crap!), differential, transfer case, all that jazz and she's still a trooper. I would in no way recommend that as a course of action though.

take a look at this thread:
https://g35driver.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=charge
it provides a hefty list and some other information such as avs007's post regarding warranty denial.
Good luck!
