Here is that audio link: • Infiniti M35 M45. DVD,...
I finally got mine today!!! so excited I just want to sit in it and appreciate a beautiful car😍
Congratulations Sir! I hope you get to enjoy the car as much as I do mine. Took it on a 1000-mile roadtrip
Congrats man... Which year and trim did you get?
@@mikeschaner5853 07 m45S, I'm in love!
@@michaele.8119 I had an 06 base and now I'm head over heels for these things... Lookin at an 09 x and 09 s... Congrats again man. You will not have any regrets
Yes sir definitely, yes I want the all wheel drive x. I see they only like premium, I asked the guy I bought it from what kind of gas did he use he said mostly 87🙄.
I have a 2006 M45 as well, brought it in 2018 for 5500 with 190k miles on it. I drove it from Georgia to Dallas a couple of times. From Georgia to South Carolina, also from Mississippi to Memphis Tn. I love this car and it’s durability no Major issues with this car no what do ever. After I finish truck driving school and get my feet wet in the industry, I will be up grading to the Q70 sport! I can’t see myself in a different make and model type of car!!
Do you still have the M45 or did you get the Q70S? How many miles on the M45 if you still have it?
I have an 07 M45 sport. Its looks just like yours to the right headlight cover. Except my ambient light is orange on the inside. Nothing wrong with it. Rolling strong with a 162k on it. I absolutely love this vehicle
Just brought one today.a M35 x
The knowledge you have on these cars just put in my possible car to buy its between an 08 m45 and a 08-09 lexus gs350 leaning more to the m45 thanks for the info keep the vids coming
Thanks man. I hope you make the best choice for your money. Both good cars in my opinion, but I think the Ms are sportier and handle better, while the Lexus is more luxurious.
The M35 of course, would be better than the V8 due to weight difference in the nose, but the suspension and rear active steering of the sport models helps in the driving dynamics greatly.
you can easily pop off the back of the center console where the red and white audio cables are connected unscrew 2 screws drill a hole inside your center console and u can wire the aud cable through there and keep the lid/tray closed. looks alot cleaner and the aux cable can be tucked back into the center console. I took the extra step and tookout the cigarette charger and connected a 3 way usb port and tucked it inside next to all the components in the center console and put my iphone charger through the same hole as the aux in the center console and put a usb port that fit perfectly into the hole where the center console was, i can send some pictures if interested. Youve helped me so much thought i could help a little back
Thanks for the tip. I usually have the cables temporarily hooked because I move between cars pretty often.
I'll consider buying spares and they can just remain in their respective cars.
EdBwoy you’re welcome, that makes a lot of sense then if you ever decide to keep one for good definitely look into it gives the car a more modern look. People always think my cars like 2012 since it was so ahead of its time. ( however the lack of aux isn’t)
EdBwoy hey have a question for you, recently I tried to drive my car but when I put it in drive the engine didn’t rev nor did the rpms go up it only coasted forward slowly. However when it’s in park and neutral the engine revs fine. I’m thinking it might be the alternator? My cars well past 150k miles now and I know they tend to go out around then. I’m not mechanic or anything just a dyi guy so wondering if you think it’s the alternator or something else. Thanks
@@JESUSISKING77742 there isn't enough info to troubleshoot fully, but it doesn't look like a charging issue to me, maybe a slip up of the transmission.
Have you had all your recalls done? Gas pedal.
EdBwoy I have done the passenger side airbag, when I asked wether the gas pedal needed to be done the person at infinti i said my car didn’t need the gas pedal recall but I will check double check because it could be that.
Love these, and v8 too !!
How's the maintenance cost??
In the past year I've done 3 oil changes, which I'd say are always a good idea. I also replaced air filter, in-cabin filter, faulty windshield washer level sensor, idler pulley was very slightly squeaky so I replaced all 3 pulleys. Were these others necessary? Maybe not to everyone, but I like my stuff running at 100%, no dash lights or funny sounds - and it all cost less than $200.
So if I was running it on the lean program all I would have spent last year would be the cost of 3 oil changes.
I've had a preowned 07 for about 5 years now and NEVER paid for anything major. I've had air intake hose, spark plugs, and belts changed. Normal oil changes and that's it. I love it lol
Just got an ‘’08 M45x today, 88K miles. That’s less than 7500/year. Couldn’t believe it. I had no idea how to charge my phone or play music which is why I’m watching this video. Thanks! BTW where’s the link for audio?
Hey Ed I noticed this model has the chrome line even on the wood trim on the door. Is this just for 2008 sport models? I have a 2007 m45 sport and although it has chrome trim along the front of the rose wood it doesn’t have it on the doors, not sure if previous owner replaced them for non sport ones or if the 07 sport models just didn’t come with chrome trim along the wood panels on the doors.
Great video dude. None of the outrageous music and straight to the point.
Thank you, much appreciated.
The Infinity M45 Still A Sharp looking Sedan a new is Coming 2025 more power And Three SUVs
I thought all sport models came with the brushed aluminum interior?
The sport could get the rosewood as an option, but you could not get aluminum in non-sport.
I just bought a 2006 m45 sport , it's pretty clean inside a few dings n scratches 175000 ,am trying to figure ilout if I should invest money in like getting a paint job and putting high proformance brakes n suspension, decent rims ,lol idk lol
Welcome to the club, congratulations! I like to make sure the most important bits are in good shape first, then I move on from there. Engine, transmission and the other things that would pop a code affecting emissions... at that point, the optiins are endless. Wrap the car, get a big brake kit, find other wheels if you don't like the sport 19s, etc...
EdBwoy that's great advice bro thanks
You bet! I hope you have a smooth ownership experience
Get some pro pilot sports gen4 275/35/19 rear 255/40/19 front. Exhaust for sure. Maybe springs? Cai. Smile a lot when driving. I know I do.
@@jajupa78 will tires that wide fit on the stock rims? stock tire size is 245 and it doesn't seem like there's much room for anything larger than maybe 265, especially in the rear
Beautiful car. Love the M37 as well.
Just out of curiosity, I'm looking to buy up an 08 M35s with 135k same trim as yours. The Infiniti dealer is asking 9.5. Is that a good, fair or bad deal?
I know prices have gone up, but I personally wouldn't buy it for that. I know they can be found cheaper.
@@EdBwoy Yes, prices have gone up even for the last resort civics. Thanks for the insight though, I'll pass since the dealer is stern on the price.
@@reddstool1023 all the best on your search. If I may ask, where are you located?
And what is the main criteria you're looking for in an M?
@@EdBwoy I'm in San Antonio. I don't have a spec, just an M that I can use for my long commutes. I've owned three J30's and can't seem to find any other car that rides like that. Too smooth.
@@reddstool1023did u find one
I feel you as far as the white car I have a while M56 and a while Q70L that tint makes them look so nice
Are these cars roomy for a big guy like myself thinking about buying one
They are pretty spacious & comfortable. I'm only 6'2" with good mass, and I've never felt in the least cramped.
Depends on how big a guy you are. Lol
Hey Edbwoy. Just got a 2008 M35S, white. Tried some auxiliary cords to try to play music through my phone. The ones I tried didn't work. Which ones and where did you get the ones you have. I have an Android phone, Samsung.
Anyone know the starter location on the m35x. I removed both front wheels and the panels underneath and I still dont see it
Why not go over the rear seats?
Hey Ed. Fred again I'm. Getting ready to install front and rear eibach springs. I watched your videos on you removing the the front control arms is that necessary or can I just remove the lower 17mm bolt and 3 12mm nuts up top and slide the struts out in between the control arms. Thanks for any info you have to help me out
Is this with regards to the front upper arms? Not necessary.
I have done the job by removing the lower strut mount bolt + that seemingly-random black bracket.
Remove the 3 nuts in the engine bay on the strut tower then the whole assembly should lower. Swing the strut out and you're money.
Of course, remove the ABS cable and anything else in the way of the strut.
I considering getting a 2006 m35 infiniti
Me too
@EdBwoy - eventually enough of us are gonna band together and convince you to host an "M Fest"... 😆
I'd actually be down for an M meet, but it doesn't seem like people are that interested in getting together. Maybe it's my location that sucks
@@EdBwoy hmmmm... Well, lemme get the new addition/s and I'm down for gettin together
Another question. How do I get the Bluetooth option to work with iPhone? Tried EVERYthing!
The Bluetooth will only work for audio calling (the quality can be questionable). Unfortunately they don't have Bluetooth audio streaming.
EdBwoy I found a device which connects to the DVD player. Has coax plugs. Works fine for now. Thanks for responding.
How reliable is the V8 engine? A few searches online mention oil consumption issues. I currently have a 08 GS350 and I’m trying to decide be a GS460 or a 08+ M45 Sport.
I find them pretty reliable. Of all the VK45DEs I've owned, I can't say I ever had excessive consumption. Mine consumes no more than half a quart over 6,000 miles, but I still check often.
That is on par with other makes and models I've experienced. The Infiniti will be cheaper than any comparable Lexus in the market.
M45 vs gs460? Definitely the gs460 over the m45 because of that nice 8 speed automatic
So I see others asking you questions about these m cars.. dang now they are not a secret anymore! I am going to see you on instagram for my questions Sir.
I was considering buying a 2006-2010 M45 with the sport package but im really leaning towards the M37S or M56S i love the aggressive look that the sport models give you and i can drive it for a while without touching the wheels im looking to upgrade soon so i been looking at the Mercedes-Benz CL550 & S550 both with the AMG appearance package but might end up with the Infiniti for a more less cost to own and maintain standpoint i hope i can find one in black or dark gray but i prefer the black on black
I know somewhere you could get a black on black M56S. Stock 2011 with 76k miles and every single option. Owned by someone who cares for Infinitis well.
EdBwoy how much they want for it
Nice Nice Sedan Infinity M45 still a Strong Car From Infinity 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I have 3 m45 I’m trying to make 2 complete from them. slowly but surely. Curious as to why none of my m45 have the s model badging or body discrepancy but they have RAS.
The S badging started in 2008

Yo EdBwoy i changed the battery in my key remote on my M35 It still doesn't work the guy at the dealer said the remote is receiving a response does the key responder in the actual vehicle go out after a while?
If we've discussed this before, remind me the background of your issues.
But no, there's nothing that should die with time. There are remote antennas that might fail like any computer, but it's not common
EdBwoy no we haven't discussed it before but its starts up the car its just not unlocking or unlocking the doors or opening the trunk i just went to the dealer yesterday and the changed the battery but still no functionality from the remote locking unlocking opening the trunk or not even the panic works
It could be a bad remote. Do you have another remote to try?
EdBwoy no just one
I'd buy another one with matching FCC ID and try it. You don't even have to pay for the intelligent key to be programmed. The remote functions can be programmed at home
maybe you should keep it. Iconic Musclelux sedan.
I just might. I can get an M45 any day I want, but this one especially would be hard to replicate
Yes a fully loaded M is very hard to come by with sport package you know this... I would love to compare the m35 S 09-10 for that HR/7 Speed.. I think like you did in one of your vids it's M56xS or M37xS next time, though i'm leaning to a FX50S
More variety if you can get the V6s together. 06 M35, 09 M35 and 11 M37. What I really wish for is a side by side, drag race type deal. It would be even better for the V6 vs. V8 of each year. These questions always come up when people are considering platforms that came with more than one engine choice.
Are you still apart of the Fb group forums?
Yes, I do show face once in a while.
Mileage
Name the price
I am not actively advertising it for sale anymore. However, I'll entertain offers and if you're interested, send me an email at EdBwoy@gmail.com
I just bought a 06 sport with 146k miles, car is in great shape, no dings, paint job is not perfect but car looks and sounds good. The only concern I have is the transmission oil looks dirty, I want to take the car for trans flush but i get mixed opinions about doing one, they tell me if it ain't broken, don't fix it. Your thoughts??
I would do a drain and fill. Drain 5 quarts, replace with 5 quarts etc. I am an advocate for clean fluid.
A trans *flush* is unnecessary.
@@EdBwoy thanks for the prompt response, I will do that instead of the flush.
@@emmamtz2010 keep us updated with how it goes
Any advice on a good price brake kit??
Stock size & all? I have been hearing positive reviews about the Brakemotive kit.
They can be found on ebay
@@EdBwoy will check out, just purchased a 08 m35...with 160, on it...prices kinda high at the dealer auction....lol
Also best choice of oil to use??
Did you sell it if so how much
As it turns out, I never sold it
That's awesome- These newer cars are not built like how they used to be- enjoy@@EdBwoy
Beautiful car
Yes indeed it is. 200k miles and I still admire those body lines like the first time I saw one.
At least with the V8 Infiniti had sense enough to go with a normal dipstick using the VQ35 dipstick is a nightmare especially in the dark stupid design by Nissan
Haha. So I've heard. The only RWD VQ35 dipstick I dealt with was the pathfinder, and it wasn't exactly convenient either
Ok that's what I was hoping. Thanks again.
You're welcome. Let us know how it goes. And share any helpful tips for others doing the job.
Looks nice!!!
Thank you. It has earned a few rock chips over the years, but I still love looking at it...AND driving it
In your opinion, btw the m35 and m45 which is a better option?
M45 all day.
However, if you like to make modifications to your engine, the V6 will have more aftermarket support out there.
EdBwoy ok thanks a lot
How much for the m56
Hey man, send me an email at edbwoy at gmail
Did you sell this car yet?
No I didn't
@@EdBwoy Are you still selling it and how much? Thank you...
@@EdBwoy What is the actual mileage?
@@nelsontrujillo230 Yeah, I am still open to selling it.
A few things have changed since I recorded the video.
1. The odometer shows close to 170,000 miles. Remember the engine is 100k newer
2. It has the akebono big brake kit. I have the original brakes available
3. It has the 20" wheels from the M56 sport with new-ish continental tires. I have the original wheels available as well
4. The front bumper cover shows more road rash now
If you're interested in pursuing this, send me an email at edbwoy@gmail.com and we can discuss further.
@@EdBwoy We e-mailed you.
Did you get it?
Did you sell yet?
No I didn't. I haven't listed it for sale in a while.
I ended up doing a few things to it. ua-cam.com/video/FnP8qLhkVjI/v-deo.html
Are you looking at buying one or are you also selling?
Just bought a used 1 142k miles
So you still selling it
Yeah, I'm open to selling it. It has around 161,xxx mikes on the body. 61k on the factory engine.
@@EdBwoy how much boss man
EdBwoy why a new engine?
why ya sellin?
Space restrictions, big project in mind
Can I buy one of your infiniti
Which one are you in the market for?
@@EdBwoy q45 sport or m45
@@ceejay6023 let's take this offline and I can provide more detail.
EdBwoy@gmail.com
@@EdBwoy seen your cars what do you have now
Is this m45 a x with a v8?
No Sir, they did make X models with the V8, but mine is the RWD model. In that generation you could not get the Sport package with AWD
@@EdBwoy what's the difference between this car and the q45? And which one is better?
@@Createdjustintime it has newer tech and is sportier. The q45 is more of a luxury sedan with really nice features.
It all depends on what you want in a car.
They went 5710 for it
This isn’t fully loaded sorry
In your opinion, what is it missing?
On edbwoy you already got the jdm.lets sale.it to me.
Let's trade 2007 infinity m45 for 2008
I have 72k.miles rust free
What year and is it a sport ?
