    2014-2015 can be manual swapped with the same transmission from the 370z, the VR30 transmission in Q50-Q60 can handle more power due to upgraded valve body and torque converter. They can handle 600whp with no issues.

    The 2018 models did not come with apple play/android like the newer models. The stereo was also updated on the 2022 models and added power steering wheel tilt. The updated facelift and rear upgrades gives the Q a wider stance for the newer models. For the most part, the car hasn't changed drastically.

    Nice presentation !! Does the 2018 plus still have transmission issues?

    • @SpeedCultureStudios
      @SpeedCultureStudios  3 місяці тому +3

      It seems that the 2016+ is relatively clear of transmission issues. I believe I mentioned that. However, we have been hearing of some valve body failures on 2016 Q50s and QX50s lately. I personally have not heard of any 2017+ failures yet.

      My 15' q50s 3.7 AWD has 150k miles on it and still on OEM valve body and transmission. However i do make sure that I do a drain and fill for trans fluid every year. I also do abuse the car and track it a few times every year. But I keep up on maintainence and so far nothing has broken down on me

    This is in reference to the Traction Concepts LSD. What are the torque specs for the rear 3 bolts that connect the rear differential propeller flange to the driveshaft? I cannot find these numbers anywhere……

    • @SpeedCultureStudios
      @SpeedCultureStudios  2 місяці тому

      I believe 54 ft lbs. if you look at the install instructions for the z1 motorsports driveshaft it states 54ft-lbs for those 3 bolts

    Just bought a 2015 3.7 q50 used at 108k, should I be worried about the transmission giving me trouble? If so what can I do to prolong issues

    • @SpeedCultureStudios
      @SpeedCultureStudios  23 дні тому

      You can’t prolong it. It just seems to happen. Just pay attention to it.

  • @matthewhodges2029

    if a 2017 3.0t is kinda skipping around in the lower gears could it be due to a trans valve body?

    • @SpeedCultureStudios
      @SpeedCultureStudios  2 місяці тому

      Very well could be. Yes. Might want to have it diagnosed. Or have trans fluid changed to see if it makes a difference first.

  • @GFace369

    I feel like the 3.7 is just a lil more rotating mass and that what’s being so hard on the trans

  • @Dreamevil2009

    The 3.0T has a much larger torque converter and bell housing. Other then that I am not familiar with other differences.

      I'd say 2019 & up if you're looking into a 3.0t, 2016-2018 there's a known casting issue with the engine block being porous/ having air pockets that leads to coolant loss. I believe after 2018 they fixed that issue

      The 3.0T has turbo issues

    • @SpeedCultureStudios
      @SpeedCultureStudios  3 місяці тому +2

      I don't know if it is a wide spread issue, honestly. We have heard of some turbo failures, but more often than not it seems to be mod/tune related.

    • @ravenmoto5948
      @ravenmoto5948 3 місяці тому +2

      @@SpeedCultureStudios I've read about a lot of issues non tuned turbos failing at as little as 18k. Seems infiniti never really got a fix for it. Its kept me from buying one. Also read about cooling issues too.

      Lol classic myth. Im the original owner of a 2018 Q 50 S. 6 years of ownership and the car has been FBO + tune since day 1. Zero issues. Just change the oil regularly and dont push it right after a cold start

    • @joeblowig
      @joeblowig 3 місяці тому +1

      I have my 2016 q50 redsport motor blew last year at 129,000 miles. Piston Rings were going out and it blew up in the shop, but I’m also FBO catless pushing like close to 570whp and 500trq on stock turbos. But turbos never blew. I used 5w-30 oil but I now use 5w-40 Castrol carbon neutral. I say let car warm up Infiniti master tech say don’t let car idle and sit too long for excessive amount of time and use a thicker oil. Also check/smell your oil if it smell like gasoline might need to use thicker oil due to the thinner oil is mixing too much with gasoline.
