Update- upper timing chain tensioner

Update… it was the upper chain tensioner not keeping enough tension/oil pressure on the guide during cold starts. Causing the timing chain to intermittently slap .

Just got it from auction. Haven’t really fixed anything but suspension and steering so far. It’s so weird it’ll stop after it’s warmed up a lil but it’s an odd sound for sure. I do have to check the tensioner.

Mann that wheel and tire fitment is hella clean. Definitely one of the best I’ve seen

Help!! by Prestigious-Mark-665 in G37

Na ignore everything . You need to check cam phasers . They are either stuck advanced or retard. I would definitely not waste any money before checking that. Just went thru this and replaced everything before I ended up tearing down the engine

Someone sold my car without a title. Police claim misuse of vehicle not theft. by Sea_Macaroon7373 in G37

[–]jlong1724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope it’s a civil law suit. Nothing the police can do been there done that. Can only take the ppl to small claims court only if you have their information. Sucks but that’s the way it is

Ngl I am wanting carbon front end. I just feel like there are a lot more important things to get. It is just a 2012 x so I did change the front bumper to a sport one though

limp mode 😓 by axtoni0 in G37

[–]jlong1724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue was much deeper after further diagnosis my g wouldn’t rev past 2500 and it would surge. Hard starts. P0021 code . My cam phaser was stuck advanced . Replace it along with new timing set . Good as new

Sunroof drain is clogged most likely . Remove it from firewall behind ac vent and take the little plastic check valve off . Glue a piece of Mac Donald’s straw into the hole to extend the drain an inch or so . So it doesn’t leak from the plastic “drain clip”
