Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 1996 Infiniti Q45 transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

Questions About 1996 Infiniti Q45’s Transmission

  • 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. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Infiniti? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Q45 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. 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? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1996 Q45’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Infiniti Q45 transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Infiniti Q45, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who can fix my  Infiniti Q45 transmission leak? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair Q45 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a Q45 with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your Q45 with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
