I usually use both but when changing oil i move the jack out just long enough to do my thing before putting it back. Even though the car is on stands, i feel more comfortable having one more thing to keep it lifted.

Here's my usual set-up (this is a pic from the ATF how-to)



When bringing the car back down, it's either to the DIY ramps to give enough room for my Arcan Jack to fit, or i bring it down to another 2.5 Ton jack that's waiting on one of the rails before bringing it all back down (this is so i can remove the Arcan from underneath the car, prior to the drop it fit just right, but after dropping it would scrape on that shroud.)

 

Damn!!! I didn't know that was jack point in the front!!! I've been lifting it from the side! Both driver wheels off the floor!! Lol!

Doesn't ANYONE read their manual anymore?

 

Apparently some people are just stupid!!

 

Ahh, come on Sal, I highly doubt you're stupid.

I am just always amazed though at the things people don't know about these cars because they apparently never read the manual. It is really pretty odd when you think about it; considering it is probably THE most expensive and sophisticated piece of electro-mechanical equipment that most people will ever use in their lives, yet they don't even bother to learn how to use it per the instructions.

 

When I bought my G, I read through the entire manual. About a week after I bought it, I got a call from my corporate asking if I would like to set up an appointment to go over the features of my car with an Inifiniti tech. When I told them I didn't need to cause I had already read the manual, the guy on the phone was shocked. I guess nobody reads the manual anymore.

 

Reading what in the manual? The entire thing or the features? I figured out most of the features on my own, and if I couldn't figure it out, I looked it up.

As for maintenance and stuff, never needed to know how..

 

chemical guys leather cleaner FTW!

 

Nice and clean. My last car had a stone interior and it was such a pain to keep clean.

Bluedevil, why do you have stone seatbelts in the rear, and did you swap the coupe rear seats into your sedan? Or am I just imagining you have a 2+2 sedan?

 

I use to have the stone color seats then i took it to Chuy's and they redid all my seats w/ blue double stitching. When i get enough money seatbelts are next to go. Maybe one by one
