what's up youtube it's your boy carpenter ridge and welcome back to another video and in today's
video i'm gonna be telling you guys my second year owning this infiniti g37 i'm at let's see
almost at 138 000 miles so um i think the first one i was at around like 120 so now i'm at 138 18
000 miles later so if you guys are interested in that i definitely say stay tuned on to the video
but let's go ahead and get into the video so the first thing is that i mentioned in my first video
is that um the leather still looks good the interior still looks good and it still applies
still to this day my interior still looks good it's a little dirty because it's my daily driver
and i commute probably but we could say about 18 000 miles a year almost 20 000 miles a year
and everything still looks good like i don't have scratched up uh i don't know what to call this but
yeah this is not scratched up or whatever it still looks the same when i bought it the steering wheel
still looks same looks the same when i bought it the leather still the leather still feels fine and
comfortable i do need to condition my leather and stuff like that but everything has been fine but
um this had gotten dirty because i don't know if you guys seen when i uh in the video where my car
broke down we'll get into that later but this was a little dirty or whatever but i got it cleaned
and everything else looks clean and everything everything still works all the windows still work
um the sunroof still works everything has been working fine so um as far as interior wise and
all the electronics and everything everything has been working good now i'm gonna get back until you
know when the car broke down if y'all haven't seen that video go ahead and watch it i have a playlist
on my channel too an infiniti g37 content uh g35 content everything so if y'all want to
watch my videos i made it easier for y'all to go through them and you know watch it or whatever but
um the only thing that broke down within this year was um the heater hose the heater hose popped off
which with a whole lot of coolant that came out came out the car and stuff like that i
was tripping out that day because i'm like man the car started to run a little hot and i'm like bro
please bro i'm not trying to blow no head gasket nothing like that i need this car to run cool and
stuff like that but yeah that's the only thing that happened was the heater hose popped off and
all that coolant came off but that's the only repair that i did within a year yeah that's the
only repair that i did within a year um i thought the head unit um went out uh because the the whole
screens and the radio wouldn't stop working and stuff and then the dealership was trying to blame
it on the slap or whatever but it's actually the um the subwoofer went out so whenever the
subwoofer goes out it disconnects this whole like screen or whatever so screen and all that
to come back on you just unplug the subwoofer and everything will come back on and stuff so
and i paid 180 and it was time to blame me down on blaming it on the slap bro like i had slapped
for many years ain't nothing like that ever happened so i don't know what they was talking
about but anyways that's the only thing that like broke down was the subwoofer and the heater holes
but everything else has been a-okay as far as the maintenance goes um i do about four or five
oil changes a year because i get my oil changes every 3 700 miles so yeah about four or five oil
changes a year and then also i changed the front diff the back diff the transfer case and the
automatic transmission fluid once a year i know they recommend that you do it like every 30 30
000 miles or 20 thousand miles or something like that but i just get it changed once a year there's
nothing wrong with having clean fluid in your car and that's what keeps your car running even longer
so um this year uh i'm gonna have to change the brake fluid and the power steering fluid
i haven't did that um i haven't did that in a while i think since 105
yeah and i'm yeah so it's about time to change the brake fluid and the power power steering fluid i
am hearing a little squeaking noise in the back so i need to figure out what's going on in the back
also i'm hearing a little squeaks when it's come to like uh when it comes to stepping on the brakes
so it might be time to switch off those brake pads uh i did i did brake pads probably back in 2020
so it's been about two years or whatever so um it's probably about time to switch those brake
pads like i said it's my daily driver and now i'm driving up and down hills and stuff like that so
put some more weight here but as far as the tires and everything tires still look good
i just did a tire rotation not too long ago i think like three four months ago so tires look
good everything is running real good but like i said the only thing is the suspension i want to
figure out what's going on in the back and um i may be getting some type of coilovers pretty soon
um i'm starting to grow on me a little bit the more i've been researching i'm like you know what
i kind of like him or whatever so i might be getting that so stay tuned on to the videos
because that'd definitely be a video but but yeah as far as maintenance um nothing really
out the ordinary you know been popping up you know this car is pretty clean so i'm gonna keep
it like that so that's the only thing i did with maintenance and i want to touch on this because
i touched on this my first video the paint is still in excellent condition right now my car is
dirty but i usually uh give it a wash once every two weeks it's my daily driver so i try to do
it once every two weeks and the paint be hidden i'm gonna go ahead and throw a picture up right
now um so y'all can see man that paint is still good still in good condition um i was getting
a lot of waxes last year and i don't take this through express wash so i don't have like a lot
of swirls and stuff in my paint or whatever it's actually about time for me to go get like another
wax i really try to take good care of this paint especially because it's black and you know how
black is attracted to heat and the heat will fade your paint so i try to keep the paint as clean as
possible and i try to take care of it as much as i can because this car sits outside the g35 is now a
garage but this one is not so i try to keep this paint looking good and stuff like that as much
as i can so the paint is still in excellent condition especially as a 10 year old car
i think what i might do is i might invest in a car cover to be honest with you i think i'm gonna
start investing in the car cover for this one so what it does sit outside it won't take too much
heat because i really don't want this paint to fade because i still haven't figured out what i
want to do with the car yet i don't know if i want to do a wrap i don't know if i want to do paint
i still don't know what i want to do yet so i like to take good care of this car the paint is still
in good condition especially with the black on black look that i got on it right now so you know
we'll see we'll see we'll see but the paint still looks good overall it's been a great commuter
car um it's been really solid to me you know it's been getting me you know back and forth to work or
you know me shooting videos with it or you know me doing these insane little you know pulls that
i'll be doing and me doing the um crazy stuff uh but yeah it's been it's been holding up you know
pretty good for me um you know i put about almost 20k miles on this car so it's been it's been doing
pretty good man so i can't complain with that it's been a pretty good solid car we're going to see
what the next year holds when i do the year three review but um it's been pretty good i love it um
i'm actually getting ready to shoot the one year review on the g35 because i had it for it's about
to be a year and a couple of months so i'm gonna go ahead and shoot that pretty soon i don't drive
that car as much so it's going to be really easy but from the time that i do drive it it's been a
good car too so y'all find out in the video when i post that but if you guys like this video go ahead
