2003 Infiniti M45 Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Infiniti's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Infiniti? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your M45’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your M45 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my M45's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2003 M45’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Infiniti, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Infiniti M45? Yes. Infiniti M45 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
