How reliable is a 500HP TUNED Q50 3.0t after ONE YEAR

- Thankfully I have not had any major issues overall with having the car tuned for a year now. Overall my experience has been 9/10. The only reason why it's not a 10/10 is that I'm constantly scared of the turbos going out or of something breaking but thankfully nothing has happened yet.
If you are in NorCal and want anything installed on your Q or are looking for any wraps hit my IG @JoseWraps

Bro don’t do a flush on the trans just do a drain and fill, and it’s supposed to be every 30k miles that you change the trans fluid other wise that 3rd gear will start to mess up. Usually when people have 3rd hear issues it’s cause the valve body is going out I just replaced mine on my fbo RS
Interesting thank you so much bro I didn’t know this. I’ll do some more research. this might even be a good video idea.
Facts
Drain and refill for the WIN
Did you the replace the whole TCM unit or just the defective solenoids?
100% because my 3rd gear is trippin and I had to swap out the solenoid and do a flush
Thank you brother!
Keep up the good work. I love watching your videos
Thank you. I really appreciate it.
I love watching your videos ❤ keep up the good work
Thank you baby.
You should have your oil pressure on your dashboard. SonicTuned has a recent blog post about him seeing a car per month destroy the engine because of an oil solenoid that goes bad. You want to be seeing 50-55psi in high RPMs. The VR30 has a low enough oil pressure as it is, definitely want to be monitoring that. Replacing the part if it’s low can fix the problem and save the motor.
And those akebono pads just scream. Pretty normal for performance pads, brake dust build up. It will go away and then pop up on another side. Aston Martin has the loudest brake squeak, so I just pretend I’m in a Aston 😂
You should swap to 5w30 0w20 was meant for better mpg and other regulations and use Nissan gtr filter also manifold gauge pressure is the turbos psi not the boost bank
Whats your tire setup? Any trouble hooking? Im getting some new wheels so im trying to see which ones to get size wise
The pops will be louder if you go full straight pipe but you gotta drop the engine to do it
Will the Invidia Gemini exhaust fit a 2021 3.0t?
Do you only use ow-20? Bc during the summer I was running 5w-30, but colder days ow-20
Only 0w-20
When you ordered your tune, did it come tuned to your vehicle, or do they tune it when you send in your data log? Or did you have to upload your own tune
Full remote tuning. Gotta send them data logs
clean
How many miles are you changing your oil I’m doing mine at 5,000? Nice review!!
Right now I’m doing 3k miles
Why, so short, have had a lot of cars only dit oil change every 12500 or 20000 miles. No issues at all. Its the normal manufacturer recommendation here in NL.
do you recommend a tune? i have a 2019 3.0 and have been debating it. i don’t wanna void any warranty, but ive been thinking ab getting a 93 tune. car has 42k miles. just worried about reliability
also this is what i’d buy just so you know what all i’d be doing (incase you recommend something that’s better)
Ams downpipes
ams heat exchanger
ams intakes
invidia gemini exhaust
and then obviously the ecutek and what not
Tbh my car like I said has been good to me so far. I would 10000% recommend getting an oil catch can. I have the mishimoto one. Oil change every 3k miles and you’re good.
@@josewraps i got the z1 catch can installed already😂
@@NicksQFiddyoh you still in that “what about about my warranty😢” stage 🤣🤣 lol give it a year you will be fully Fbo just do it bro
@@mr.benjamincounta hell yeah bro😂 i’m 20 and this is my first car so i’m tryna take care of it😂 already talked my the guy about getting allat done so i’ll be fbo here soon
Looking to get tuned by AMS. Just moved to Illinois for work. I want their stage 3 package 450whp & 500wtq
I wanted to get tuned by AMS as well. They actually don’t do tuning in California so that’s why I had to go with racebox. I will probably say if you want to go reliability go ams and if you want a little more power go racebox. Racebox is good at both reliability and power. Also that’s basically what I have the AMS stage 3 1/2 🤣 I have all the stage 3 things plus low pressure fp, flex fuel, and running e30. Personally I don’t know anyone tuned by AMS but I’m sure you can’t go wrong.
Another thing too is that all the parts on my car are AMS except for the Catback (MBRP) and catch can (mishimoto). That made me lean towards getting tuned by AMS however ultimately ended up with Racebox
@@josewraps yeah bro I’m from the IE. I would’ve went racebox if I didn’t move to Chicago. I know AMS is able to send base tune files directly to their customers no matter how far but its not a custom tune. I have the fast intentions cat back exhaust on my Q, love the sound of it. MBRP is nice too!
@@Q6IXTYonly reason I got the MBRP is because it’s one of the only cat backs that’s 3” which mounts up perfectly to the 3” AMS LDP. Also I love the sound
@@josewrapssecond fastest and fastest q50s are tuned by ams
Clean build , wish the 3.0s where reliable or I would’ve went that route
Lmaoooo bro they are reliable had mines for 4 years fbo no tune and runs greats. Keep seeing ppl saying it not reliable when g37 are in the shop way more than my 3.0t lol
@@johncarter6715 when compairing a 3.7 vhr to a 3.0 theres no comparison , 3.7 takes the cake do your reserch
@@selfmadejay01 na your saying it’s not reliable bro lol. No car is reliable it’s all how you take care of it. I’m just saying you saying 3.0t is not reliable but I see more g37 in shops more than 3.0t 😂. Do ya research kid
@@johncarter6715 can you do a review of your 3.0?
@@selfmadejay01 lmaooo I wish but I’m not into making vids. I’m currently fbo and no tune. Soon tune since everyone keep telling me to. But trust bro my q50 has 93k miles and I never ran in to no crazy issues. I do its regular maintenance and it been running good for 4 years.
Fast guy 😮💨
147k miles for 10k n other 144k for 9k valid??? Both 2014
Those are 3.7 not the 3.0 but they are more reliable than the 3.0 just not as much power. I would look for something still with less miles tho.
@@josewraps bet
whats the 0-60 on this car?
I’d guess like 4 seconds flat
What happened to the first engine?
Rod knock
@@josewraps care to share what caused that exactly?
@@mohamedhosini2103legit no explanation man it was after an oil change done by Infiniti. So it was all under warranty but I never went back I changed my own oil from then on out. I only went to them because it was free for me at the time.
What happened to your original engine?
Rod knock. Warranty covered it
Are your head lights tinted ? If so what %
Yes just a light smoke
I got a 2019 with 83k
How’s the car so far? Been thinking of getting a 2019 with 86k
Change the wrap. Its time.
Let’s wrap the m4 it’s time
This guy is sooo hot 😻 and his car is so fast 💦😩
For some reason I feel like you have colored eyes.
