whats up everyone! new here need some help

sorry if i missed the new member area my name is Ward and im having some issues. please help me out.

My 2006 g35 sedan is having issues starting up. It is like a stuttering, doesn't want to turn over. Its worse after it sits at work for 8 hours in the heat. In the am when its in the garage it still hesitates. Auto zone checked the battery and alternator and said they look fine. Any ideas? This car's warranty is 4 years 60,000 miles right? so to the dealer I go. Do any of you work at one or know someone? I appreciate it

thanks

ward

Best option is to bring it to a dealer.. its an 06 so you've got plenty of warranty left.

Once it starts, is the idle erratic or lumpy? Does it hesitate when running or is it just hard to start? If not, good chance it's the starter.

Have the dealership check the Johnson Rods and Knuder valve as well.

Got the call from the dealer, needs a battary. what do you know it might need belts they look like they are cracking, and the engine coolant is dirty and the mass flow sencer could be as well. I asked him well did you clean it out?? he did not know. they want 60-70 bucks for a battary, are they not covered under warranty? it was on my GTO. when the car shifts to 2nd gear there is this odd noise, sounds almost like a blow off valve, it only happens once when you first start the car after it sits for over one hour. weird, it sounds like it is coming from under the car not the front. he said they did not hear it, there is not way they didn't so i will show them later to day. he said it could be from the belts they look like there cracking. So any suggestions.

thanks

Yea, take it to your nearest Infiniti Stealership. Why ever go to an autoparts
store when you have a warranty?
