Glad its working out. When my brothers Rio hit 100k the check engine light stayed on and the dealer couldnt fix it.

Ok, set the psi at 43 today.
Drove from Boerne to San Antonio and back, then around town.
About 60 miles. Got 27.1 mpg
Boerne is at 1500 ft and SA is around 500 ft so it was downhill then up hill.

Comment: I MISS THE ELECTRONIC SUSPENSION ON THE INFINITI!!!!

Didn't realize how hard 43 psi is.......
Didn't realize how well the SPORT suspension on the Q worked!!!

Oh well. I' get used to it.

PS. I had changed the shocks and struts on the Kia at 65k miles

Congrats on the new car. Sad to see the Q go though. I have followed all the posts on it as it has always been one of my favorite cars. My wife has a G35 sport sedan (6 speed MT with LSD) with 160k on it. Hoping it never gets retired.

Turbo, THANKS!!!
It has been a GREAT car. And at 275k, I certainly got my moneys worth.
I will probably pick up an 06 Q45 (last year) in a couple of yrs.
