What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a I35?

A multitude of problems can activate your I35’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Is it possible to reset the I35 malfunction warning light on my own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your I35’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my I35?

A drivetrain malfunction in your I35 should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my I35?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your I35 includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your I35 forward.

2002 Infiniti I35 Drivetrain Service

Your I35 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Infiniti, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2002 Infiniti I35, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Infiniti's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.

What Are Infiniti I35 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2002 Infiniti I35 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your I35 might need driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Infiniti I35.

How much does it cost to fix your 2002 Infiniti I35 drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable.
