aight ive looked everywhere for this damn tsb or recall which ever and i cant seem to find it. I have an 03 g coupe and im having grinds in 3rd and 5th gear. can anyone help me out?

 

No tsb or recall on that that I've heard of. Try calling you dealer, Assuming you haven't been abusing or racing your vehicle, they might be able to cover it under your power train warranty.

 

I had the same problem with my 350Z, it's the syncro's.......
I went to the dealer ship and thy replaced the whole tranny back in 05.
You have a 60K mile warenty on the powerterain can't remember how many years though

 

It should be a 6 year 70,000 mile powertrain warranty.

 

That's right......Nissan's get a little less.....

 

i had the same problem, grinded in 3rd gear. replaced under warranty.

 

With the Z it was thrid gear for me, I just bought a 03 G35 coupe a couple of days ago and was hopeing to hear it grinding so I could have the tranny replaced but so far the car is all good

 

this happened to my 03 G coupe.. covered under warranty brand new trans was installed.

 

gentlemen, i am going to be purchasing a used 03, possibly this weekend. can someone verify the infinity factory warranty as stated above? if that is the case, i should be all set. the car has 47k on it. thank you.

the grinding is normal... believe it or not, which is crap.. but other than the grinding, my car runs like a champ. grinding shouldnt be normal though.. but dealerships cant do shiznit about it.

 

They could replace the tranny, that's what they did for me and I never had a problem after

 

The only thing the same about your 03 trans to say an 05 is the case thats it thats all, everything inside is differant and some outside like the bracket for the shifter it has differant bushings in it now. The long and short of it you need a new trans, if your out of powertrain warranty they can be had for not much money on ebay or craigslist check around.

 

The thing you must understand is Nissan /Infiniti treats problems with brand new purchasers differently from problems which occur when the vehicle has gone/passed thru 2 or 3 owners. The new car purchaser is their only REAL customer especially when noise not a total failure has occurred.

A total failure will be covered up to the day of warranty expiration but noise is quite another thing for the USED CAR Buyer.

Especially since used buyers are supposed to pay for detailed prebuy inspections by certified/qualified experts not just randomly buy any old used car that looks pretty....................AS IS is often as is even with a warranty against total component failure.

 

what is the grinding noise?
