The Random Question Thread

There's nothing else can be clogged that I can think of. If cat internals dislodged, you should get a check engine light. What year is the car? Stock exhaust?
 
I also forgot to mention that yes his car came up with the check engine light, we did a test and came up with code p0011 which is the intake timing control solenoid, but i dont think this is the problem for the exhaust
 
same thing on my 2009 fx. both cats rattle and have to be replaced. $1695. from my mechanic i called infiniti and spoke with the parts person and he said those are a common problem with infiniti when they rattle. the car is out of warranty so now i have to pay up. I wont be going with the stealarship otherwise they will want 2500 plus.
 
How hard is it to remove a steering wheel? I found one a a junk yard in excellent condition with controls for 40$ ! I want to replace my faded peeling old steering wheel.
 
The most pain is remove the two torx screw that holds the airbag onto the steering wheel. I have went into having bent the flimsy tab that the nut was welded on to the airbag unit. I ended up destroying the steering wheel bottom cover in order to remove the two screws. Now, there are a few other FX, these two screws comes out without any problem.

Take a look at the 2003- 2008 Paddle Shifter Installation DYI here for reference on the torx screw (pic #9)

It's really easy. The torx screws came out easily for me, but the nut behind the airbag was hard to remove, took me about 10 minutes

Do you guys know what's this part is called or the part number ? I took it off to update my Bluetooth firmware and this happened.
 
Okay, I ordered rear sway bar links to replace some suspension parts since I'm near 300K and I just reolsf replaced the fronts, but... They're nowhere to be found on the car.

Does our vehicle come with them? I see it on the FSM diagram, but I don't see them on my car. Does anyone have a real life picture of them on our cars? 2006 FX35 RWD

Edit: Just found out.. my car doesn't have a rear sway bar. fml

A lot of RWD were adding the rear sway bar as a mod... It'll tighten up your rear end around corners... :)

So, let me get this straight... The RWD models didn't come with a rear sway bar? Or was it the sport models that had them?

From what I remember no RWD FX's had the rear sway bar... Most were buying them from INFINITIPARTSUSA.com and just bolting them on...
