- Hi Everyone. Welcome to my channel! In today's video, I give you a review of my 2015 Infiniti QX70 after 45K+ miles. This video will cover my QX70 after 45K miles in terms of reliability, things I notice; like wear n tear, and weird quirks. I mention the 3.7 liter V6 engine and work I recently had done to the brakes & rotors. I’ll discuss comments in one of my two previous QX70 videos, 5 Reasons I LOVE My 2015 Infiniti QX70.

I just bought a QX70 from Scottsdale and it’s being shipped to Vegas. Super excited! I love the body of this SUV. Very unique 😍
That's awesome! Congratulations 🥂
velox731 Thank you! ☺️
FitGenes 85 Congratulations! The body style is definitely unique nothing like it on the road.
Orlando Jacinto i agree and thank you!
FitGenes 85 which one you get v6 are v8
Awesome suv highly reliable, with rountine maintenance, I have seen these Infiniti's with 200,000 or 300,000 miles on the odometer. People have to understand all cars need maintenance just because the vehicle comes from the manufacturer with reliable ratings to keep that going you have to change all fluid in the vehicle engine. 1. Oil 2. Transmission Fluid 3. Radiator Fluid 4. Differential Fluid 5. Brake Fluid 6. Power Steering Fluid. 6 Brake pads like in this video resurfaced your rotors. 7. After 5 years Tires. Wheel Alignments when necessary. 8. Rotate tires every oil change so they can wear properly 9. 100k miles service fuel filter 10. Spark plugs for most 100k miles service 11. Battery when needed 12. Alternator with high mileage 13. Air conditioner recharged or serviced. 14. Filters changed Cabin filter Engine air filter when needed. Repeat this process over again. Car would last 15 to 25 years easily avoid terrible roads with deep pot holes. Detail the vehicle interior and exterior.
Tafari Boozer I appreciate the detailed comment! It’s all about maintenance.
@@orlandojacinto1 Sure you are welcome Orlando Jacinto! Keep up with the vehicle videos awesome content.
Tafari Boozer Thanks Tafari!
Just bought a pre owned 2011 Infiniti FX35 with at the time about 184,000 on it. I love it. I have owned Nissan products for the past 20 years and only traded for something different. Never had any major repairs. I had no hesitation with mileage on it and being 12 years old. Had to replace power rack and pinion steering system as was slightly seeping. But knew that from comprehensive multi point before I chose to purchase it. I can't tell on reliability as only owned for less than two months but it drives, feels and looks like it only has 2 years of wear and tear. Superb quality. It's a keeper for me. Love the VQ series engines. I can tell it will be very reliable at least from the one I picked as I believe previous owner took well care of it from initial impressions.
Nice congrats! I’ll be on the lookout for the rack and pinion issue with mine. I’ve been buying Nissans for years I like the brand. I’m working on the 75K mile QX70 review video now, I cover a costly repair that I did not expect.
This is one of my dream cars!!!!!! I cant wait to get one!!!!!!
Yeah! After six years, I'm still loving my QX70! It has become my daily the last few weeks. Make it happen you'll love it.
Thanks for the well done long review of your QX70.
You’re welcome. I’m glad you liked it!
Got that qx70s black on black love it family happy with this new addition
Congratulations! It has the purple stitching on the seats, steering wheel, etc., it contrast nicely with the graphite interior. How’s the ride with the 21 inch wheels?
I purchased a 2003 fx 45 in 2012 with 118,000 miles on it. At the time I didn't know anything about Infiniti's. In 2018 I purchased a 2015 Mercedes E 350 coupe. I gave the fx 45 to My Mom. Its 2020 now. The Infiniti is a way better vehicle than the Mercedes. I'm selling the Benz. The Infiniti is the best car I've owned. I've owned many car from BMW to Buicks, Oldsmobiles. Hands down it's the best. The Mercedes is the Worst. Even the old Infinitis last.
jacques55119 Interesting. I know a number of people that have owned BMWs and Mercedes that have said the same thing. Like many other manufacturers, Infiniti has there issues but each time I considered buying an Audi, BMW, or Mercedes I always go with either Lexus or Infiniti based on low maintenance cost and more importantly reliability. Thanks, I’ll be making more QX70 videos to give everyone updates on what the ownership experience is like.
Nice comments! Plan to get one 60k miles 2016 qx70, around 20k usd. Any suggestions?
simon peter Check the underneath for rust and a clean car fax. Well maintained interior. I know I’m going to get some flack for this, but buy from an Infiniti dealership with good reviews. I would consider buying an extended warranty, I plan to buy one for mine. Let me know how it goes.
Orlando Jacinto will try one online agent who technical team to do all the evaluations job . A new approach to second hand car market ,will see if it works
simon peter 😎
Great review. I have 33,000 miles on my 2017 QX70. So, as expected, I haven’t had any issues at all. I love the solid feel to include fit and finish. Additionally, the SUV is extremely comfortable and fun to drive. I recently drove across country with two dogs and a full load and it was a blast.
My wife’s 2021 Audi Q7 is far more expensive and has a more cushioned drive especially over bumps. However, I couldn’t be happier with my 2017 QX70 that I purchased as a CPO with 9,090 miles on it.
Thanks! Congratulations on your QX70 purchase! I really enjoy the long trips in my QX70 especially after buying new tires. I’m about to hit 60K miles still feels solid after all those miles.
I have a qx70. Love it. Has 120000 miles and never an issue..
😎 I just passed 60K miles looking forward to 120K.
HOW IS ON GAS ???
Thank you for the video
I've been thinking about buying one of this
You’re welcome. Thank you!
I buy the diese Version 3.0 yesterday 30 k
km, 4 years old, s premium , for 25 k Euro in Germany and hope to have many pleasure with the car.
Thanks for give me so many advice
Congratulations John! 😎 Welcome to the club! Enjoy your QX70. I’m glad you like the video.
Hey John,
I'm considering buying a 2012 fx30d. How's your experience with it so far? Is it reliable? how many km/l do you get from it? Is the 3.0 Diesel feel powerful or slow? Thanks!
Tried very hard to find one that's reasonable priced in MA early last year, but couldn't (either over-priced or gone too fast). So end up buying a 2015 4runner limited. (I know it is quite different from QX70, but I do like cars that are slightly special.) But I do get the chance to test drive a expensive QX70 from dealer, feels so different and fast compared to my other cars before. Hopefully someday, Infinity could bring QX70 back. BTW, nice video and thanks for the response!
It's difficult to find a used QX70 in SC as well. The 4runner limited is a very good choice. I have some friends and coworkers that own a 4runner, they love it. I think the QX55 arrives in summer 2020, maybe the QX70 replacement? You're welcome. Thanks Pan!
Nissan needs to make a new generation FX/QX70 immediately. NIssan is really dumb creating these mommy CVT junk suvs
THANKS MUCH ORLANDO!!!
You’re welcome. 🙏
I have a 17’ QX70 S. Just turned 60 K no problems. I have done some upgrades to my car. I’m running a ARK exhaust and upgraded drop in AEM air filters. I had all the chrome wrapped in gloss black. If you want pics let me know. My car is daily driven. And this is my 3rd FX had a 03’ 35 , 07’ 35 and now the QX 70 S. The one thing I hate about my car is the transmission shifts into high gear way to soon. I also noticed some hesitation when in auto mode and you give it gas. Takes to long to downshift. I never had this problem in the earlier models. Infiniti said it’s for gas mileage. I feel that since I purchased a S model I should’ve got the up graded big red brakes. My car is also missing the blind spot warning which is rediculous in a $60k car ( I didn’t pay anywhere near that). I got my car preowned with 7800 mi. Otherwise I love the look and color. Gun metal with BLK accents.
The ARK exhaust sounds really good. Someone in my hometown has the same gun metal color with black accents as yours. I notice the hesitation in auto mode as well. Yeah it’s weird that Infiniti did not include the red brake calipers in the S model? You have the purple stitching on the steering wheel and seats, right?...it contrast well against the graphite interior. Overall I couldn’t be more happy with my QX70.
@@orlandojacinto1 yes I have the purple stitching. Oh I forgot to mention that on all my Infiniti’s I had a huge brake rotor warpage problem on all the cars. So I installed this.

Love this set up no problems.
We just bought a 2017 QX70 with 34,000 miles. Drove 8 hours to get one with low mileage and better price. Please update us at 60k miles, thanks.
velox731 Congratulations. Sure I’ll make the video.
@Anthony Illmatic If you are able, drive to a major city for better prices. You can find them in the mid to upper twenties.
@Adam West congratulations on your new love! We have had nothing but great joy driving our Qx70, so much that I bought a Fx35 as well. I believe you've made a great decision. When you have time, I'd like to invite you to check out Infiniti FX/QX on Facebook. Lots of great folks and valuable information on maintenance/upgrades.
Anthony Illmatic 2016 65k miles asking 17k , is it a faire price ?
@@simonpeter9617 sounds fair... I'd look on Nada.com and Kbb to see prices in your area.
The only thing's I've done to my 13' model is maintenance and the rear differential bushings. I currently have 71k on my vehicle.
😎 Besides having the rear subframe replaced a few weeks after I uploaded this video and an axle replacement coming up soon , my QX70 is still reliable.
I’m driving to Ohio to buy mine tomorrow. I wish I could find a clean well maintained FX50S. I so want that horsepower.
Nikki Ujkicski Yeah I know what mean, the FX50S is awesome. Congrats! How did it go?
Orlando Jacinto omg I love it. Driving back to Michigan , 1.5 - 2 hours.... felt like I was driving a sports car. Very happy with it
Nikki Ujkicski Your comment reminds me of the feelings I had when I drove my QX70 off the dealer lot. Rather than going home, I kept driving around town. 😎
@@orlandojacinto1 should be pleasant experience
simon peter It was. I just hit 50k miles need new tires soon and front brake work done as well. Need to maintain for the next 50k.
Hi, nice video. Thinking about buying one before they disappear. Question: Do all QX of the same size and the number is just for hirarchie and power ?
Infiniti stopped making the QX70 (3.7 liter V6 engine) in 2017. QX50 & QX55 have the variable valve compression engine. QX60 (3.5 liter V6) and QX80 (5.0 liter V8).
@@orlandojacinto1 So the size of the car itself is always the same?! I just saw a QX70 S with the 5.0 L V8...is that a special version. Which engine is best in your opinion?
Do you know why they’ve changed the wheels on the QX70? Loved the wheels on the FX50 and am wanting to know if Infiniti sells the better (bigger I think) wheels to go with the QX70?
Like other car manufacturers, Infiniti refreshes the wheels and front bumper at least once during a car’s lifecycle. I like the wheels on the FX50 as well, but it can be a rough ride due to low profile tires especially if the road is rough, you feel every road imperfection. With that said... Yes, Infiniti sells the FX50 wheels but you probably can buy it cheaper somewhere else.
My dad has 180k on his still going strong not a problem and he drives 100mph everywhere
I owned a FX37S high end model for more than 7 years. This car is very reliable. Except the dashboard quality is sucks. It cracked very badly. I have to rewrap the entire dashboard. Which will cost me a bomb if I get the original brand new dashboard.
Also watch out the Sports Coilover if you have the Sports Mode. It is very costly.
Also watch out all the rubber bushes undercarriage. I have replaced the entire car rubber bushes from front to back. Now the car ride is much more stable like brand new.
Also I have swapped the speedometer to the latest QX70S model too. As well as the front facelift grille and bumper. I also added the front top stabilizer Strut Bar and rear roof spoiler and Bodykit.
I'm surprised your dashboard started cracking. I'll check the rubber bushings. Thanks!
I cant decide between this and the 2017 qx50 they both have similarities
Buy the QX70 nothing wrong with QX50. Overall the QX70 is better.
2009 FX35 135000 absolutely trouble free.
I’m at 70K now rear subframe was replaced due to a blown bushing right after the warranty expired . Luckily Infiniti paid for it, since I’m a repeat customer.
I’m thinking of buying a salvage title 2017 infinity QX70 limited edition with 105k miles. What do you think?
I wouldn’t buy it too costly to make it legal to drive. It was previously declared a total loss. Back in the day, I wanted to buy a salvage G35 coupe did my research it wasn’t worth it to deal with the headaches.
Ok I need help. Do I buy a 2016 Cayenne base model or a 2017 QX70 3.7? Same miles, similar price. Currently own a 2010 Lexus IS with 80k miles as trade-in. Might be time to upgrade. What would you choose?
I would chose the 2017 QX70. Maintenance cost is less expensive long term cost ownership is lower. Which ever one you choose make sure it has a clean car fax record. Good-luck Shea!
@@orlandojacinto1 I agree! Thanks!
Do you know how much these can tow? Looking to tow a small boat with it. Thanks
About 2,000 lbs.
I’m thinking about getting a qx70 i want an aggressive sounding exhaust and ideas?
I still have the stock exhaust. I would go with Borla S Type Exhaust it sounds incredible.
Do you put premium gas? And Is it ok to use regular gas?
Yes. I would always put premium.
Is it bad if I use regular gas?
I wouldn’t use it.
I'm thinking of buying a QX70 2014 with 100k mileage. Would you recommend? They look a fabulous car.
🤔 That’s a tough one. 100K miles? It has to have a clean car fax. Check for undercarriage rust. If you want that particular car have it checkout by a trusted mechanic, it will cost you $ for the inspection. Negotiate for a fair price. Checkout nadaguides.com for new and used car values, it is one source I use. Clean retail is 16K with 100k miles. Again, I would negotiate the price down if you really want it. Test drive it a few times to be sure it is the right car for you. Good-luck!
@@orlandojacinto1 Thanks for replying, much appreciated. I spoke to a Nissan Dealer today who told me it would be difficult to get parts in the future as that model is discontinued. Although, Nissan do the servicing I was encouraged by his comment that the engine could run another 100k. A couple of grand off your price too! Yknow what its like when you latch onto a new car, even though they are rare.
@@panmad6156 I’m happy to help. The 16K was the clean price, I should’ve mentioned the average condition is around 12K. A couple grand off is nice!
It will be able to be fixed because its the same as many infiniti before it
@@liblib89 Exactly thanks.
My QX70
😎
how many times can you say QX70 ??? otherwise great video.
Watch my most recent RCF video, I say, ..”the RCF” way too many times 😂 🤦🏻♂️. Thanks, I’m glad you like the video.
how is on GAS ???

This thing is sexy I think it has angles cars are missing
The FX35/FX37 and QX70 is responsible for how all modern SUVs look today. The design team at Nissan continue showcase the fluidity of design language with the new Z.
