Common Questions

Find answers to common questions about torque specifications

Q1

Is the 5R05 transmission compatible with other Infiniti models?

The 5R05 transmission is specifically designed for the 2007-2008 Infiniti G35. While it may share some components with other Infiniti models, it is not directly compatible due to differences in mounting points, gear ratios, and electronic controls. Always verify compatibility using the vehicle's VIN or consult a certified technician before attempting any cross-model installations.

Q2

What are the maintenance requirements for the 5R05 transmission?

The 5R05 transmission requires regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance. This includes fluid changes every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, depending on driving conditions. Inspect for leaks, replace the transmission filter, and ensure the fluid level is within the recommended range. Regular diagnostics using OBD-II tools can help detect early signs of wear or malfunction.

Q3

How do I replace the 5R05 transmission in my Infiniti G35?

Replacing the 5R05 transmission involves several steps: disconnect the battery, remove the driveshaft, drain the transmission fluid, and detach the transmission mounts and wiring harnesses. Use a transmission jack to safely lower the old unit and install the new one. Reconnect all components, refill with the specified fluid, and perform a test drive to ensure proper operation. Professional assistance is recommended.

Q4

What should I do if my 5R05 transmission is slipping or shifting hard?

If your 5R05 transmission is slipping or shifting hard, start by checking the fluid level and condition. Low or contaminated fluid can cause these issues. Inspect for leaks, damaged wiring, or faulty sensors. Use an OBD-II scanner to check for error codes. If the problem persists, consult a certified technician for a thorough diagnosis and potential repair or replacement.

Q5

How can I optimize the performance of my 5R05 transmission?

To optimize the 5R05 transmission's performance, use high-quality transmission fluid and adhere to the recommended maintenance schedule. Avoid aggressive driving and ensure the engine is properly tuned. Installing an aftermarket transmission cooler can help manage heat during heavy use. Regularly check for software updates from Infiniti to improve shifting algorithms and overall performance.
