2004 Infiniti Q45 Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Infiniti? 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.
  • How much can my Infiniti tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Q45 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my Q45's transmission fluid need to be inspected? 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Infiniti Q45 leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Infiniti Q45 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Q45 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
