What are the drivetrain specifications for the 2014-2015 Infiniti Q60?

The 2014-2015 Infiniti Q60 is available with either rear-wheel drive (RWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) configurations. The AWD system, known as ATTESA E-TS, provides enhanced traction and stability. The drivetrain is paired with a 3.7L V6 engine producing 330 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. The transmission is a 7-speed automatic with manual shift mode. This setup ensures optimal performance and handling across various driving conditions.

Q2

What maintenance is required for the Infiniti Q60 drivetrain?

Regular maintenance for the Infiniti Q60 drivetrain includes checking and replacing the transmission fluid every 60,000 miles, inspecting the drive shafts and differential for wear, and ensuring the AWD system components are functioning properly. Lubricate the drivetrain components as recommended in the owner’s manual. Additionally, monitor for unusual noises or vibrations, which could indicate potential issues requiring professional attention.

Q3

How do I replace the drivetrain components in a 2014-2015 Infiniti Q60?

Replacing drivetrain components, such as the drive shaft or differential, requires lifting the vehicle securely and removing the exhaust system and heat shields for access. Disconnect the drive shaft from the transmission and differential, then unbolt the differential from the chassis. Install the new components in reverse order, ensuring all bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications. Always refer to the service manual for detailed instructions.

Q4

What should I do if my Infiniti Q60 drivetrain is making noise?

If your drivetrain is making noise, first check for loose or worn components such as the drive shaft, differential, or CV joints. Inspect the transmission fluid level and condition. If the noise persists, perform a diagnostic scan for error codes. Common solutions include replacing worn bearings, tightening loose bolts, or servicing the transmission. Consult a professional if the issue is unresolved.

Q5

How can I optimize the performance of my Infiniti Q60 drivetrain?

To optimize drivetrain performance, use high-quality synthetic transmission fluid and ensure regular maintenance. Upgrade to performance drive shafts or differentials if desired. Keep tires properly inflated and aligned to reduce drivetrain stress. For AWD models, ensure the system is calibrated correctly. Avoid aggressive driving habits that can accelerate wear on drivetrain components.
