  • My 2008 FX 35 is hard to start. It takes 2 or 3 times cranking before it will start. I’ve replaced plugs and coils. What could be the problem?
 
It could be a lot of things, but do a search for "AC amplifier" and see if you'r experiencing the same issues.

I’ve seen this and was wondering if that might be my problem.
The things I’ve seen are talking about hard starting in cold temperatures.
Thanks for the response. Bigg
 
the AC amplifier fix has nothing to do with cold temperatures, one member who lived in Portugal had starting problems, and mine during summer over here, both fixed with the AC amplifier. I went through changing battery, starter, cam shaft sensors, fuel pumps, even the key battery's, thank's to IS I read about the AC amplifier and ordered one, problem finally solved! that was 4 years ago, perfect start ever since:)

Thanks Do you happen to know what the price of the ac amp is and where did you order it from.

It cost me + - 200$ in 2015, I just checked :coffee::coffee: it now costs 572$:(. I just googled 27760-8Y71A and the cheapest was 520$, unbelievable that the price has nearly tripled in 4 years!!! (and its just a little plastic lunchbox!)

Do you have any code's? just make sure it's not something else (easier said than done), My head Nissan mechanic wouldn't believe that the AC amp had anything to do with a bad start, but I went ahead and ordered one from infinitpartsusa anyway (Infiniti Amsterdam wanted 1000$ for it:LOL::LOL:) the mechanic try's to avoid me ever since:).

I don’t have any codes. I guess I’ll order one and hope it works.
Thanks for the information.
 
I would check fuel pump operation as well. This behavior would occur if the pump is starting to go out and you dont have full fuel pressure when trying to start.
 
My 07 FX35 always took 2 tries to start in colder temps until I recently went with a 24f Maxx battery that has 750CCA and it's been starting after just 1 try.
