Can my QX4 malfunction warning light be reset at home?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your QX4, but it's important to resist the urge.

All About 1997 Infiniti QX4 Drivetrain Service

Your QX4 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Infiniti, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your QX4 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1997 Infiniti QX4, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Infiniti's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

When to Get Infiniti QX4 Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 1997 Infiniti QX4 drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Infiniti QX4 may need driveshaft attention if you feel clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Infiniti QX4 doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 1997 Infiniti QX4 drivetrain repair is expensive. Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
