had to go Nissan Dealership b/c the nearest Infiniti Dealership is 45 minutes away and i was short on time this week.The tech found the following problems and gave me the following price quotes on parts:

1. replace valve cover gaskets because oil is leaking and hitting the exhaust mainfold---$866.00 + tax

2. replace power steering rack boots $412. + tax

3. Repalce IDler Pulley- only the AC Pulley- $166.00 plus tax

4. Oil Flush $99.99 Plus Tax

I knew of some of the problems but havent gotten a chence to get around to the problem. I knew I had a fluid leak but i thought it was the automatic transmission fluid because of the burning rubber smell. Is replacing the valve cover gaskets is essentially the plenum job? Should I replace all thepulleys or just the AC pulley? If anybody can prioritize these problems, please advise. Oh yeah I am getting a brake and caliper upgrade any suggstions. The 17" inch Inifitini 6 spoke rims came in and they are beautiful, anybody suggest tires for them?

I will be doing pulley replacement myself and possibly some others if
