Infiniti G35 (2008 year). Manual — part 24

CHANGING WHEELS AND TIRES
Tire rotation (Models equipped with

same size tires on all wheels)

INFINITI recommends rotating the tires
every 7,500 miles (12,000 km). (See
“FLAT TIRE” in the “6. In case of emer-
gency” section for tire replacing proce-
dures.)
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel

nuts to the specified torque with a torque

wrench.

Wheel nut tightening torque:

80 ft-lb (108 N·m)

The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to

the specification at all times. It is recom-

mended that wheel nuts be tightened to

the specification at each tire rotation in-

terval.

WARNING

●

After rotating the tires, check and ad-

just the tire pressure.

●

Retighten the wheel nuts when the

vehicle has been driven for 600 miles

(1,000 km) (also in cases of a flat tire,

etc.).

●

Do not include the T-type spare tire or

any other small size spare tire in the

tire rotation.

●

For additional information regarding

tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety

Information” (US) or “Tire Safety In-

formation” (Canada) in the Warranty

Information Booklet.

Tire rotation (Models equipped with

different size tires on front and rear)

Tires cannot be rotated on this vehicle,
as front tires are a different size from
rear tires and the direction of the wheel
rotation is fixed for each tire.
A pin is on the front brake rotor to
prevent the rear wheels from being in-
stalled in place of the front wheels. The
spare tire can be installed in place of the
front and rear wheels. When installing
the spare tire in the front wheel, the hole
in the spare tire wheel must be aligned
with the pin on the brake rotor.

WARNING

●

Retighten the wheel nuts when the

vehicle has been driven for 600 miles

(1,000 km) (also in cases of a flat tire,

etc.).

Tire wear and damage

WARNING

●

Tires should be periodically in-

spected for wear, cracking, bulging or

objects caught in the tread. If exces-

sive wear, cracks, bulging or deep

cuts are found, the tire(s) should be

replaced.

●

The original tires have built-in tread

wear indicators. When wear indica-

tors are visible, the tire(s) should be

replaced.

●

Tires degrade with age and use. Have

tires, including the spare, over 6

years old checked by a qualified tech-

nician, because some tire damage

may not be obvious. Replace the tires

as necessary to prevent tire failure

and possible personal injury.

●

Improper service of the spare tire may

result in serious personal injury. If it

is necessary to repair the spare tire,

contact an INFINITI dealer.

Replacing wheels and tires

When replacing a tire, use the same size, tread

design, speed rating and load carrying capacity

as originally equipped. (See “SPECIFICATIONS”

in the “9. Technical and consumer information”

section for recommended types and sizes of

tires and wheels.)

WARNING

● The use of tires other than those recom-

mended or the mixed use of tires of different

brands, construction (bias, bias-belted or ra-

dial), or tread patterns can adversely affect

the ride, braking, handling, ground clear-

ance, body-to-tire clearance, tire chain

clearance, speedometer calibration, head-

light aim and bumper height. Some of these

effects may lead to accidents and could re-

sult in serious personal injury.

● If the wheels are changed for any reason,

always replace with wheels which have the

same off-set dimension. Wheels of a differ-

ent off-set could cause premature tire wear,

degrade vehicle handling characteristics

and/or

interference

with

the

brake

discs/drums. Such interference can lead to

decreased braking efficiency and/or early

brake pad/shoe wear. See “WHEELS AND

TIRES” in the “9. Technical and consumer

information” section of this manual for

wheel off-set dimensions.

● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is

replaced, the TPMS will not function and the

low tire pressure warning light will flash for

approximately 1 minute. The light will re-

main on after 1 minute. Contact your INFINITI

dealer as soon as possible for tire replace-

ment and/or system resetting.

● Replacing tires with those not originally

specified by INFINITI could affect the proper

operation of the TPMS.

● Do not install a deformed wheel or tire even if

it has been repaired. Such wheels or tires

could have structural damage and could fail

without warning.

● The use of retread tire is not recommended.
● For additional information regarding tires,

refer to “Important Tire Safety Information”

(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in

the Warranty Information Booklet.

All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models

CAUTION

● Always use tires of the same type, size,

brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or ra-

dial), and tread pattern on all four wheels.

Failure to do so may result in a circumference

difference between tires on the front and

rear axles which will cause excessive tire

wear and may damage the transmission,

transfer case and differential gears.

● ONLY use spare tires specified for the AWD

model.

If excessive tire wear is found, it is recom-

mended that all four tires be replaced with tires

of the same size, brand, construction and tread

pattern. The tire pressure and wheel alignment

should also be checked and corrected as nec-

essary. Contact an INFINITI dealer.

Wheel balance

Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle handling

and tire life. Even with regular use, wheels can

get out of balance. Therefore, they should be

balanced as required.
Wheel balance service should be performed with

the wheels off the vehicle. Spin balancing the

wheels on the vehicle could lead to mechanical

damage.
For additional information regarding tires, refer

to “Important Tire Safety Information” (US) or

“Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in the

INFINITI Warranty Information Booklet.

Care of wheels

● Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle

to maintain their appearance.

● Clean the inner side of the wheels when the

wheel is changed or the underside of the

vehicle is washed.

● Do not use abrasive cleaners when washing

the wheels.

● Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or

corrosion. Such damage may cause loss of

pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.

● INFINITI recommends that the road wheels

be waxed to protect against road salt in

areas where it is used during winter.

Spare tire (TEMPORARY USE ONLY

(T-type) spare tire)

Observe the following precautions if the T-type

spare tire must be used, otherwise your vehicle

could be damaged or involved in an accident.

WARNING

● The T-type spare tire should be used for

emergency use. It should be replaced with

the standard tire at the first opportunity to

avoid possible tire or differential damage.

● Drive carefully while the TEMPORARY USE

ONLY spare tire is installed. Avoid sharp

turns and abrupt braking while driving.

● Periodically check spare tire inflation pres-

sure. Always keep the pressure of the TEM-

PORARY USE ONLY spare tire at 60 psi (420

kPa, 4.2 bar). Always keep the pressure of

the full size spare tire (if so equipped) at the

recommended pressure for standard tires,

as indicated on the Tire and Loading Infor-

mation label. For Tire and Loading Informa-

tion label location, see “Tire and Loading

Information label” in the index of this

manual.

● With the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire

installed do not drive your vehicle at speeds

faster than 50 MPH (80 km/h).

● When driving on roads covered with snow or

ice, the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire

should be used on the front wheels and origi-

nal tire used on the rear wheels (drive

wheels). Use tire chains only on the two rear

original tires.

● Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE ONLY

spare tire will wear at a faster rate than the

standard tire. Replace the spare tire as soon

as the tread wear indicators appear.

● Do not use the spare tire on other vehicles.
● Do not use more than one spare tire at the

same time.

● Do not tow a trailer when the TEMPORARY

USE ONLY spare tire is installed.

CAUTION

● Do not use tire chains on a TEMPORARY USE

ONLY spare tire. Tire chains will not fit prop-

erly and may cause damage to the vehicle.

● Because the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare

tire is smaller than the original tire, ground

clearance is reduced. To avoid damage to the

vehicle, do not drive over obstacles. Also do

not drive the vehicle through an automatic

car wash since it may get caught.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION

VQ35HR engine

INFINITI recommends the use of unleaded pre-

mium gasoline with an octane rating of at least

91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research

octane number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available,

you may use unleaded regular gasoline with an

octane rating of at least 87 AKI number (Re-

search octane number 91), but you may notice a

decrease in performance.

VQ37VHR engine

Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane

rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)

number (Research octane number 96).
If premium gasoline is not available, unleaded

regular gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI

number (Research octane number 91) may be

temporarily used, but only under the following

precautions:
● Have the fuel tank filled only partially with

unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with

unleaded premium gasoline as soon as pos-

sible.

● Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt accel-

eration.

However, for maximum vehicle performance, the

use of unleaded premium gasoline is recom-

mended.

CAUTION

● Using a fuel other than that specified could

adversely affect the emission control sys-

tem, and may also affect warranty coverage.

● Under no circumstances should a leaded

gasoline be used, because this will damage

the three-way catalyst.

● Do not use E-85 fuel in your vehicle. Your

vehicle is not designed to run on E-85 fuel.

Using E-85 fuel can damage the fuel system

components and is not covered by the

INFINITI vehicle limited warranty.

Gasoline specifications

INFINITI recommends using gasoline that meets

the World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) specifica-

tions where it is available. Many of the automo-

bile manufacturers developed this specification

to improve emission system and vehicle perfor-

mance. Ask your service station manager if the

gasoline meets the World-Wide Fuel Charter

(WWFC) specifications.

Reformulated gasoline

Some fuel suppliers are now producing refor-

mulated gasolines. These gasolines are spe-

cially designed to reduce vehicle emissions.

INFINITI supports efforts towards cleaner air

and suggests that you use reformulated gaso-

line when available.

Gasoline containing oxygenates

Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing

oxygenates such as ethanol, MTBE and metha-

nol with or without advertising their presence.

INFINITI does not recommend the use of fuels of

which the oxygenate content and the fuel com-

patibility for your INFINITI cannot be readily

determined. If in doubt, ask your service station

manager.
If you use oxygenate-blend gasoline, please

take the following precautions as the usage of

such fuels may cause vehicle performance prob-

lems and/or fuel system damage.
● The fuel should be unleaded and have an oc-

tane rating no lower than that recommended

for unleaded gasoline.

● If an oxygenate-blend, excepting a methanol

blend, is used, it should contain no more than

10% oxygenate. (MTBE may, however, be

added up to 15%.)

9-4

Technical and consumer information

w

—

—

07/14/07—pattie

X

● If a methanol blend is used, it should contain

no more than 5% methanol (methyl alcohol,

wood alcohol). It should also contain a suit-

able amount of appropriate cosolvents and

corrosion inhibitors. If not properly formu-

lated with appropriate cosolvents and corro-

sion inhibitors, such methanol blends may

cause fuel system damage and/or vehicle

performance problems. At this time, suffi-

cient data is not available to ensure that all

methanol blends are suitable for use in

INFINITI vehicles.

If any undesirable driveability problems such as

engine stalling or hard hot starting are experi-

enced after using oxygenate-blend fuels, imme-

diately change to a non-oxygenate fuel or a fuel

with a low blend of MTBE.
Take care not to spill gasoline during refueling.

Gasoline containing oxygenates can cause paint

damage.

E-85 fuel

E-85 fuel is a mixture of approximately 85% fuel

ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. E-85 can

only be used in a Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV). Do

not use E-85 fuel in your vehicle. U.S. govern-

ment regulations require fuel ethanol dispens-

ing pumps to be identified by a small, square,

orange and black label with the common abbre-

viation or the appropriate percentage for that

region.

Aftermarket fuel additives

INFINITI does not recommend the use of any

aftermarket fuel additives (Example: fuel injec-

tor cleaner, octane booster, intake valve de-

posit removers, etc.) which are sold commer-

cially. Many of these additives intended for

gum, varnish or deposit removal may contain

active solvent or similar ingredients that can be

harmful to the fuel system and engine.

Octane rating tips

Using unleaded gasoline with an octane rating

lower than recommended above can cause per-

sistent, heavy spark knock. (Spark knock is a

metallic rapping noise.) If severe, this can lead

to engine damage. If you detect a persistent

heavy spark knock even when using gasoline of

the stated octane rating, or if you hear steady

spark knock while holding a steady speed on

level roads, have an INFINITI dealer correct the

condition. Failure to correct the condition is mis-

use of the vehicle, for which INFINITI is not re-

sponsible.
Incorrect ignition timing will result in knocking,

after-run or overheating. This in turn may cause

excessive fuel consumption or damage to the

engine. If any of the above symptoms are

encountered, have your vehicle checked at an

INFINITI dealer or other competent service facil-

ity.
However, now and then you may notice light

spark knock for a short time while accelerating

or driving up hills. This is no cause for concern,

because you get the greatest fuel benefit when

there is light spark knock for a short time under

heavy engine load.

ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER

RECOMMENDATION
Selecting the correct oil

It is essential to choose the correct grade,

quality, and viscosity engine oil to ensure sat-

isfactory engine life and performance, see “CA-

PACITIES

AND

RECOMMENDED

FUEL/LUBRICANTS” earlier in this section.

INFINITI recommends the use of an energy

conserving oil in order to improve fuel economy.

Select only engine oils that meet the American

Petroleum Institute (API) certification or Interna-

tional Lubricant Standardization and Approval

Committee (ILSAC) certification and SAE viscos-

ity standard. These oils have the API certifica-

tion mark on the front of the container. Oils

which do not have the specified quality label

should not be used as they could cause engine

damage.

Oil additives

INFINITI does not recommend the use of oil

additives. The use of an oil additive is not

necessary when the proper oil type is used and

maintenance intervals are followed.

Oil which may contain foreign matter or has

been previously used should not be used.

Oil viscosity

The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes

with temperature. Because of this, it is impor-

tant that the engine oil viscosity be selected

based on the temperatures at which the vehicle

will be operated before the next oil change.

Choosing an oil viscosity other than that recom-

mended could cause serious engine damage.

Selecting the correct oil filter

Your new vehicle is equipped with a high-

quality genuine NISSAN oil filter. When replac-

ing, use the genuine oil filter or its equivalent

for the reason described in change intervals.

Change intervals

The oil and oil filter change intervals for your

engine are based on the use of the specified

quality oils and filters. Oil and filter other than

the specified quality, or oil and filter change

intervals longer than recommended could re-

duce engine life. Damage to engines caused by

improper maintenance or use of incorrect oil

and filter quality and/or viscosity is not covered

by the new INFINITI vehicle limited warranties.
Your engine was filled with a high quality

engine oil when it was built. You do not have to

change the oil before the first recommended

change interval. Oil and filter change intervals

depend upon how you use your vehicle. Opera-

tion under the following conditions may require

more frequent oil and filter changes.
● repeated short distance driving at cold out-

side temperatures,

● driving in dusty conditions,
● extensive idling,
● stop and go “rush hour” traffic,
● aggressive driving.
Refer to the “INFINITI Service and Maintenance

Guide” for the maintenance schedule.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM

REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT

RECOMMENDATIONS

The air conditioning system in your INFINITI ve-

hicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-

134a (R-134a) and the lubricant, NISSAN A/C sys-

tem oil Type S or the exact equivalents.

CAUTION

The use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will

cause severe damage to the air conditioning

system and will require the replacement of all

air conditioner system components.

The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your

INFINITI vehicle will not harm the earth’s ozone

layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect

the earth’s atmosphere, certain governmental

regulations require the recovery and recycling

of any refrigerant during automotive air condi-

tioning system service. Your INFINITI dealer has

the trained technicians and equipment needed

to recover and recycle your air conditioning

system refrigerant.
Contact an INFINITI dealer when servicing your

air conditioning system.

If you plan to travel in another country, you

should first find out if the fuel available is

suitable for your vehicle’s engine.
Using fuel with too low an octane rating may

cause engine damage. All gasoline vehicles

must be operated with unleaded gasoline.

Therefore, avoid taking your vehicle to areas

where appropriate fuel is not available.
When transferring the registration of your ve-

hicle to another country, state, province or dis-

trict, it may be necessary to modify the vehicle

to meet local laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle

emission control and safety standards vary

according to the country, state, province or

district; therefore, vehicle specifications may

differ.
When any vehicle is to be taken into another

country, state, province or district and regis-

tered, its modifications, transportation, and reg-

istration are the responsibility of the user.

INFINITI is not responsible for any inconvenience

that may result.
