1990 Infiniti Q45 Transmission Q&A

  • 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Infiniti tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Q45 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Q45 transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Infiniti Q45 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Infiniti. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Infiniti Q45 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Infiniti Q45 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.

You might even experience transmission failure.
