I owned a 2006 4.4i X5 Sport back from 2010-2015. in 1999-2002 the v8 E53 Sport was really the only nimble performance SUV available on the market. However the E53 was a tad larger I think and felt less coup-like. I purchased my QX70 because it feels just like how the E53 felt with added sleek styling and refinement.
I’m looking at the newer generation, the FX35 from 2009-2012 or the FX37 from 2013 i LOVE the look of them they are so nice!😍🤤

Do you know if the 2009 fx35 suv, has the same DRIVE SHAFT as any the Fx37 and the Qx37? Mine is shot, and I want to get one from the junk yard.
It is possible that they are the same since the 3.5 and 3.7 V6 are very similar. But they could have a different bolt pattern so no way to know for sure without trying to install one first. If you price out a new one for the 3.5 and 3.7 and they have the same part number for the drive shaft than they are the same. You should be able to find the parts numbers and diagrams for both online with a little hunting around on google or eBay.

If you park in the sun for days, this will happen. MY 2009 has no issue, over 210 thou miles on the dash, in a garage.
It operates in 2WD under normal drive conditions and will send up to 50% of the power to the front wheels when the rear wheels start to slip. The car’s engine computer controls the AWD system you cannot lock it in 2WD.
I wonder if any of these cars transmissions can go over 200k with almost no problem with proper maintenance since they come from nissan and u know nissan transmission are disposable since renault merged with nissan. I really want the QX70 but am kinda skeptical about the transmission strength.

This vehicle is what put Infiniti on the map. Whomever took the decision to discontinue it without a true replacement being introduced should have been fired on the spot! I have owned a FX35 and currently own a FX37/QX70 that I purchased in 2014, both have been very reliable. Sadly I am now looking to replace it (keep my vehicles 7 years) and have to go look elsewhere, most likely Porsche Macan S.

Maaannnn u and I are on the same thought about the fx, and qx series. INFINITI are STUPID to get rid of the best suv ever made! No wonder they are going under. THEY BETTER BRING the STYLE OF THE FX35 BACK, or THEY ARE DOOMED.
Infiniti, the new QX55 is not a proper replacement for this vehicle. With the new Nissan Z being produced, please use that platform to resurrect this vehicle.
I drive the FX35 2012. Dashboard peeling is still an issue, just like the FX35 2007 I previously owned. So, it's not true Nissan solved the dashboard issue we see in the Infiniti FX.
Its possible, but we have seen dozens of the newer FX/QX70 and not peeling dashboard. I have a 2013 FX37 with 80k miles and no issues on the dash at all. It was very common on the first generation. We are in a mild climate, so its possible is hotter climates the next generation FX/QX70 could still have issues with the dash peeling, but I have not seen one example myself and have been at INFINITI retailers for about 20 years, so I have seen a lot of these vehicels over the years.
Both, they are all built on the Advanced FrontMidship Platform, 350Z, 370Z, G25, G37, Q50, Q60, Q70, QX70, EX35, FX35,.FX45. FX50, FX37, EX37, and 2014-2017 QX50 are all built on the same platform
Old video but .. I have a FX45 -05 and the v8 drink oil like a alcaholic but the Infiniti says that they do drink oil . 94300miles on the clock and it drives Amazing full option and 20” rims .. .
QX55 turned our to be another extremely disappointing model for us Inifiniti fans :( what made FX35/37/50/QX70 so special was that amazing reliable, powerful, fun, tested and trusted, bulletproof 3.5/3.7V6 and AT transmission. How a weak and boring turbo4 peered up with notoriously unreliable and boring CVT is even remotely considered a replacement is mind blowing! not to mention discontinuation of Q60(WHY?!?!) and going all electric?! they should have fired the CEO and all the execs for ruining Infiniti brand! nobody in this sector is interested in EVs, the power grid is not ready , they are boring yet super expensive. I wish we had a true G37 and Q60 successors that had even more horsepower and technologies than M340i, S5 or TLX TypeS. Inifniti was all of that: reliable, powerful, gorgeous and very high tech. we have lost all of it :(

Sometimes ppl do not know when to stop meddling with a good thing. That is what happen to INFINITI, with the FX series. Now they are screwed. I am happy though, THEY are a bunch of crooks, wanting over 3500 USA to change a diff bushing. I went thru Z1 Motor, and got it replace for less than 400, with labor.

I didn't get the space for my fx 35 extra tyre
i am keeping my 2009 fx35 until I die. or it dies. Over 200 thou, no major issue yet. STILL. Runs like a dream still.
Maaannnn u and I are on the same thought about the fx, and qx series. INFINITI are STUPID to get rid of the best suv ever made! No wonder they are going under. THEY BETTER BRING the STYLE OF THE FX35 BACK, or THEY ARE DOOMED.
I have an FX45, very informative video.
Infiniti, the new QX55 is not a proper replacement for this vehicle.
With the new Nissan Z being produced, please use that platform to resurrect this vehicle.
I'll drive my '13 model until it falls apart.
That's how I feel about my 04..
@@VQDE_RobLee I like the 04 model a lot more than the newer ones 😂
My 2013 FX50 is still the sexiest vehicle out there. I had the 2003 FX45, and loved it. But... 5.0 liter is amazing.
I drive the FX35 2012. Dashboard peeling is still an issue, just like the FX35 2007 I previously owned. So, it's not true Nissan solved the dashboard issue we see in the Infiniti FX.
Its possible, but we have seen dozens of the newer FX/QX70 and not peeling dashboard. I have a 2013 FX37 with 80k miles and no issues on the dash at all. It was very common on the first generation. We are in a mild climate, so its possible is hotter climates the next generation FX/QX70 could still have issues with the dash peeling, but I have not seen one example myself and have been at INFINITI retailers for about 20 years, so I have seen a lot of these vehicels over the years.
Many thanks for the insight. You could be right. Hot weather may not be friendly to the dashboard.
Amazing review with massive info
Was it the Nissan 370Z or the 350z platform?
Both, they are all built on the Advanced FrontMidship Platform, 350Z, 370Z, G25, G37, Q50, Q60, Q70, QX70, EX35, FX35,.FX45. FX50, FX37, EX37, and 2014-2017 QX50 are all built on the same platform
Great informative video, thank you.
There should have been a 3rd gen of this! I wish there was still a G37/Q50 crossover model.
Thanks for sharing.
Old video but ..
I have a FX45 -05 and the v8 drink oil like a alcaholic but the Infiniti says that they do drink oil .
94300miles on the clock and it drives Amazing full option and 20” rims .. .
The only cons your forgot to mention about the fx35 03-08 is the galley gasket failure
Please get this message out there!!!!!! Infiniti fixed this problem in 2014
1:10 not the 370z it’s a 350z👍
This car was so iconic back in the days. Way ahead of Lexus and Acura at that time. I can’t believe they replaced it with that trash @$$ qx55🤮
Me too, and I am really upset with INFINITI for doing so. I will NEVER PURCHASE another INFINITI.
The updated style just has a goofy front,, the og fx was perfectly aggressive and business-like..
They're still good looking and more reliable than all the other slope back ugly looking SUV'S that the other luxury brands now offer
How quick you forgot that BMW started the performance SUV genre.
BMW sucks like Harris.
QX55 turned our to be another extremely disappointing model for us Inifiniti fans :( what made FX35/37/50/QX70 so special was that amazing reliable, powerful, fun, tested and trusted, bulletproof 3.5/3.7V6 and AT transmission. How a weak and boring turbo4 peered up with notoriously unreliable and boring CVT is even remotely considered a replacement is mind blowing! not to mention discontinuation of Q60(WHY?!?!) and going all electric?! they should have fired the CEO and all the execs for ruining Infiniti brand! nobody in this sector is interested in EVs, the power grid is not ready , they are boring yet super expensive. I wish we had a true G37 and Q60 successors that had even more horsepower and technologies than M340i, S5 or TLX TypeS. Inifniti was all of that: reliable, powerful, gorgeous and very high tech. we have lost all of it :(
Sometimes ppl do not know when to stop meddling with a good thing. That is what happen to INFINITI, with the FX series. Now they are screwed. I am happy though, THEY are a bunch of crooks, wanting over 3500 USA to change a diff bushing. I went thru Z1 Motor, and got it replace for less than 400, with labor.
fx 35 way better Better Sound
Good video
best sounding suv ..... but quality of the engine not great fun car tho
Shit ton of plastic engine parts. Hate them plastic valve covers
