My wife has 04 fx45. While driving all the lights came on and the engine stop. I thought I read about this on the fourm for our m45 about a sensors . I'm pissed cause my daughter was also in the car on the hwy.....anything will help

sounds like that camshaft position sensor iusse I know in the 04-06 maxima world we would get the same symptoms is there a code?

On my way to the dealer now.....took it in last week for hesitation, now this happened....didn't check for codes...thank you by the way

It's the camshaft sensor.......got the sensor for 46 dollars but they're charging me an hour labor.

you're at what dealer? infiniti or some mom and pop shop?

[Rishi1331]

Infiniti .....

thats good for OEM part. My autozone part was a little bit higher compare to your but much lower compare to my dealer's price. Once you replace it, you're set. Also check my other review thread on torque app and Bluetooth obd ii dongle. It's very useful scanning car for codes as well as monitor it.

It wasn't my m45.....its my wife fx45 so maybe that's why.
Back again at the dealership today for the engine service light....
Now they saying the cats are going. 1400 per side...I can't believe it.
Not sure what to do?

Cats?? That sounds crazy!! I would turn that work down... the car wouldn't pass emissions if the cats were going out?! Plus if you do have to replace cats aftermarket will be a ton cheaper so don't do it at the dealer!!

[cruzad3r]

ask for code, better yet, get the code yourself. unless you see codes, i turn down on all "dealer advise service"

the camshaft sensor will give you a CEL. you can reset this with the torque app and bluetooth dongle i previously review. autozone or advance auto will not clear your code. if you're in a pickle, go pick up a standard OBD II scanner from harborfreight and reset it yourself first.

I Def. Said no......I have a mechanic I used for years before I got both infiniti.
Trust them.....so ill be going there and ask them to read the codes...I'll. Do high flow cats if I do anything.
