Service Engine Soon 03 M45 Similar Situation Anyone??

[stroked347]

First, a quick overview of my situation:

2003 M45 with ~72k on it. First problem with car to date. Car still operates and function perfectly, however, 2 weeks ago, my 'Service Engine Soon' light came on. I had a buddy run the code for me and it indicated a faulty Fuel Level Sensor...on a side note, my fuel gauge is broken (as others on here have experienced and has been for some time so this appears unrelated). I had him reset the code and drove it for another week thinking it might have been a glitch. After a week, it lit up again and I put in a new fuel level sensor last wednesday.

Went on a road trip this weekend and on the way back (after approx. 500 miles) the service light came on again.

Obviously I haven't run the code on this latest warning yet, so this may be a little pre-emptive, but I saw a post on here about someone replacing a fuel level sensor and thought that maybe someone has had a similar experience?

Any help is appreciated! thanks

I had the same two issues...Replacement of the gauge cluseter is the fix. Have not had any problems since..

Thanks for the reply. I had a feeling it would be the gauge cluster but was hoping it wasn't.

Guess it's time to call Infiniti and start lobbying for them to cover some of the repair cost!

pls disregard the thread...shoulda read the 'fuel gauge' thread before making this.
