My brother every car has its coins and pros and secrets. Many people here complain that infiniti fx35 always have electrical issue and I believe they say that out of experience. My advice based on experience if u want to enjoy fx35 is this, 1st once u buy it, remove that follow come key nob suck and chance it to normal key without nob suck. 2nd,make sure fuel doesn't dry up (I mean driving ya car till fuel finishes) this pushed dirt to the fuel pump. 3rd, make sure the catalyst converters are in good shape. 4th,use recommended engine oil which is 5W30 and its clearly written on the infiniti fx35 manual guide. At any time u change engine oil, change filter and pls make sure u avoid engine oil topping at all cost. Some mechanics will advice u to top oil but pls don't listen to them.make sure u buy original Belgium front linkages, don't buy new ones because if u buy new ones it will always break since the weight of that fx dey front. Bear it in mind that fx35 get weight ooo.. Use quality filter and lastly don't accelerate much ooo because fx35 dey speed like mad oo

Why is it every time we buy cars from the USA and it gets to naija we start changing and removing things? I tire o.... After all the thumb start key has been working perfectly fine all these years undecided Abi na our weather dey cause all these things

Very nice question my brother and I will answer this ya question based on my experience on infiniti fx35 (I don't know about other cars).
1st, u can't compare our roads with that of Yankee roads
2nd,u can't compare our weather with them
On infiniti fx35, under d exhaust long pipe, there is a sensor there which many naija mechanics and electricians don't know, each time u drive based on our bad road, the more that sensor is been hit by potholes, the more chance it fades and that sensor works with key nob sucks on fx35. Once that sensors dies as a result of our bad road, u Don park ya fx be that and that's when electricians will be doing try and errors work on ya fx and turn ya car to learning ground � � � so that's why I always advice people that drive fx35 to change that nob suck key to normal key so that once our bad road kills that sensor, ya car won't be affected. Though that sensor can be changed but the problem is which electrician can dictate it for u?

Let me use human analogy here.. My brother u see some people walking around and they seem healthy and fine. And because of that they don't go for their yearly check up .. but they are ok now and they look fit and healthy.....
Next thing u hear , Bros has died in his sleep , but he was hail and hearty few days ago now ...... Na village people kill am ? Na so confusion start , say na village people kill that Bros he offended person.......


My point here .. Just because the car looks fine to you does not mean it is actually doing ok .. Look at the danfo drivers in Lagos .. They look fine to you now Abi.
If u look at all the smoke black smoke coming out of their bus and still running . they will tell nothing do their bus . Na so dey go dey drive the motor like dat o

If there's an issue with a part ..Nigerian mechanic should stick to replacing parts instead of converting ..
Ehn never trust anybody with that conversion oo ..oga replace the damn das ol

This is why we encourage car owners not to change or constructs things in their car . The manufacture of the car know better........

I will be loading container soon . you can place ur order for a compressor. If we do agree on the price you will be require to put 30% down of the cost......


we want to avoid calling and chasing people to make payments when goods arrive grin


Below is order request that was placed .....
