He's talking about the center nut, which in that diagram shows 58 ft/lbs... But I'm not sure if it's the same on a stock suspension as on the coilovers...
What went wrong with your FX today?

Oh ok. I can't see why it's not the same torque spec as factory. I have installed & replaced over a dozen of these coilovers cartridges over the years using factory torque specs without anyone telling me it came lose. Just be sure you hold the center rod with a wrench or an allen wrench while tightening the nut.
It's a very common problem with this design of coilovers... Even has a bunch of HOW-TO fixes on YouTube... Usually with a tag line of "hearing a clunk from my coilovers"...

Why are so many of you with coilovers having to replace them so often? Are they all subpar qualify relative to oem? Even Jeep JK aftermarket stuff lasts longer, and people put those through a beating. I have yet to see a stock shock/springs needing replacement thread.

Tried replacing my clock spring only to find out it was an ebay replica and the angle sensor plate didn't lock on the slots behind replica.. Therefore, my sensor went out of wack.
When I started driving, my slip lights turned on and a weird noise like the abs was activating.. Weirdest experience ever. Put my old one back on, it's a bit better, but that problem still happens. Now.. I sit here at a Nissan dealership which will probably have to reset the sensor to its neutral position

Anybody experienced electrical freeze while driving? While driving my gps and radio became unresponsive no matter what i do. I tried turning them off and nada. After awhile the infocenter reset and no more issue. No other indication on the dash board. I was worried that the Fx would do a run away without any driver input.

I had that when I first took over the FX (2011 used, bought in 2015). Turned out, the radio/gps unit had issues where it would not respond initially then later (afer 3 mon I think) created an internal open circuit which constantly drained the battery every other week. After a few research from the local stereo shops did for me, they said it's pretty common for this particular unit to do this when it gets old, and the only way to fix it is to replace it which would cost $4.5k to $5k just the unit along. I ended up bought the Infiniti 3 yr extended warranty ($2.5k) and got it fixed in 2/2016. No issues ever since.
