Can someone please tell me how to adjust the parking on my 94 Q45?. The pedal goes almost to the floor.

Thanks,

Thanks - but I don't have a shop manual. Are the CD's on Ebay any good?

No!!! Do not buy those CD's - they are a total waste of time and (albeit nominal) money and those sellers on eBay ought to cease and desist! I have one and am sorely disappointed.

Do get hold of a proper printed Infiniti service manual - they are a bit expensive, unfortunately. Occasionally, you can find them for sale on eBay.

Alternatively, you can also download the service manual in PDF format from the Nissan Infiniti tech manual web site (at a nominal cost of 19.95 for a day's worth of access to the site) if you have a decent Internet speed connection. I seem to remember that they had the 1994 Q listed, but am not absolutely sure - I downloaded the 1995 manual from there.

The name of the web site escapes me at the moment, but you can do a search on the Infiniti General forum for "service manual" and get the information.

Good! Since you probably still have access today, go to the Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) section and get them all too! There is a wealth of important information about changes and recalls there.
