Infinity g35 sedan slip, vdc lights

Whenever I turn the car on and put in it gear the car will sputter and shut off. I'll turn it back on and then it will run. But then if I get to 2000-2500 rpms the car will got into limp mode and not go past 2500 rpm. The slip, VDC off, and service engine soon, lights are all on most of the time and sometimes will turn off and the car will work fine. Suggestions?

When ever you get these waring lights it means the computer control module has sensed a fault in the systems many parts or wiring, in order to begin the diagnostics to repair the fualt the system must be scanned for fault codes. this is the number 1 first thing that must bwe done.

    We had the codes pulled and I don't know the numbers that it brought up bit it had to do with the tps sensor, which we replaced and it did not help. I have been doing some internet research and on a whim decided to check the sensors attached to the insides of the wheels. Cleaned them and nothing. Later on my husband decided to randomly pull sensors and see if they needed to be cleaned. He cleaned several and then checked it and the lights went off. Seems to be working great now for the last 2 days!

    I don't know what sensors you refer to here.

    It was the wheel speed sensor, I'm thinking. Anyway that one didn't correct the problem. But when he checked other sensors and cleaned them and cleared the ecu the car is now working great!

SOURCE: G35, 2004 SLP and vdc dash lights come on.

there is a sensor located on each one your wheels that controll several features like BA, EBD, VDC, ABS etc. its metal round cylinder that monitors the rotation and characteristics of the wheel. This can get clogged with dirt and debris from every day driving. Clean off the sensors reset the ecu and everything should be fine. hope this helps.

SOURCE: vdc,slip,abs comes on my g35

Recently had the same issue one week ago. I had to replace the cam and crankshaft position sensors. Which were about $600 in repairs. You can always take your car to AutoZone and let them put it on diagnostic machine for free.

SOURCE: I have a 2004 infiniti sedan g35... the pass side seat does not

i just fixed this problem - the switch is bad - take out the seat - 4 bolts on the bottom 4 corners and then remove the whole switch - either buy a new one around $200 or unsauter the switch and clean it but be careful as there are a lot of parts inside that can fall out. i cleaned mine and it works fine beats spending the money.

The abs sensor may have been damaged when the repair was done.

Infiniti G35 brakes on its own and the VDC, slip, and brake lights come on

Quit guessing and have ABS codes read. Symptoms would be indicative of a bad wheel sensor which often fail with hub/CV failures.

On my 2006 infinity g35 the vdc,slip & brake lights are on and never go off on

Have the vehicle trouble codes read to find out the exact problem but I'm thinking it's a faulty component in your abs system is causing those lights to stay on.

I drive G35X - 'VDC OFF' and ''SLIP" lights are

VDC OFF light will always be off unless you turn it off (this is for traction control). The slip light should not be on however, unless you are driving in rain/snow and the VDC is activated.

G35, 2004 SLP and vdc dash lights come on.

Haven't seen this very much on 2004's but on 03's There was a service bulletin issued on this. The bulletin directed the technician to perform an inspection of the Brake Control System. Most of the cars I ever saw with this issue had to have the VDC/TCS/ABS control unit/module replaced. The part number for the 03 model sedans is 47851-AM401. if your car is an 04 sedan the part number should begin with the same numbers. Usually there was an internal malfunction in the control unit that caused the computer module that controls and monitors this system to detect a Yaw Rate sensor malfunction which in turn caused the lights to come on and stay on. If your vehicle is a coupe, then the part numbers are a little bit different. I would recommend contacting any Infiniti dealer with your VIN number in hand and ask them if the VDC/TCS/ABS control unit has ever been replaced. Just so you know each and every time an Infiniti has been to the dealer and a repair order was written there is a record of that visit in Infiniti's database, and any dealer can access that information simply by putting in the vin number into their service computer. They can tell you where the car was originally purchased, service history, warranty repair history, any recalls, etc. I would highly suggest doing this, most dealers will even print you a copy of the complete history of the vehicle for a nominal charge. Hope this helps

Replaced braked pads - now VDC and Slip Lights are on

I would take the car to almost any auto parts store and ask them to check the ODB II computer for codes and to reset the "Check engine light". Get the code that they tell you and it should go a long way to pointing you in the right direction to fixing this problem. It might also be that when you pumped the brakes that you somehow set a code in the computer from the ABS system and now that you have the brakes pumped up and working correctly resetting the Check engine light might fix your problem.

Good luck! Write back with any code you get and I'll see if I can help you figure out what the problem might be.

Sometimes when i take off fast a slip light comes on does that mean my transmission is slipping?

I found your answer here:

Why Does the SLIP Light Come on?
The SLIP light represents the vehicle's traction control program. When illumiated it takes over control of throttle and braking based on input from a myriad of sensors. The VDC (traction control) is initiated by wheel slip, yaw and any other factors that make the computer think you're on the verge of loosing control of the vehicle. There have been a lot of complaints about the G35's VDC being too interferring and actually causing harder driving conditions. The VDC can be turned off via a switch to the lower left of the steering wheel (useful if trying to pull out of a snowy spot when wheel spin is necessary, or "spirited" accelerating). Even with the VDC turned off, however, it will still kick in if it detects substantial loss of control. NOTE: if you plan on racing, turn the VDC off. Otherwise it will ****** the throttle when you chirp the wheels from 1st to 2nd gear.
