wow...that's sounds perfect to the tee. Where did you get this info....seems like we've been asking a few folks and it's been like pulling teeth to get this info! lol
 
same here but so far the dealer i go to compliment on the headlights and taillights, to a point where they ask if the headlights came with the fx when i bout it :.rofl:

I'm not sure if I would be comfortable having service done by a dealer that doesn't know what an oem FX looks like....



TapaTalkin'
 
The dealer shouldn't care about the TPMS. Just give them a heads up that you don't have them on.:top:


As to the TSB I'm going to call soon when I get a chance to schedule an appointment. This software issue has been annoying me lately lol.
 
Called my SA today and this TSB (ITB) is not showing up in their system yet. He will call me as soon as the software is available. The dealer is Tim Dahle Infiniti in Murray, UT if anyone cares. With that said, there are literally two or three FX's here in the SLC area That I have seen.
 
I searched online for this TSB and couldn't find it. It's hard to convince a dealer that it's legitimate without any reference to a document, invoice, or website.
 
I'm really not having any issues with mine. I had one of the early reflashes way back when.
I wonder if I have enough miles on my FX for these problems to show, I only have just under 30,000 miles on mine.
 
The mechanic I spoke to said all 7 speed transmissions have this problem and their all made equal with the same software, parts, etc. He said the customers that don't complain about it either:

1. Don't know exactly what to look for
2. Or simply just don't care enough to even bother noticing it.

If I drove your car I could point out to you Wayne lol.

I have yet to come across one that doesn't. The G37's are even worse than ours. I've driven many different loaner cars and they all do it.
