Hello everyone!
I'm Gary in Western NC, the newbie owner of a Black 2011 G37X. I bought the car this past Saturday, trading in a '95 J30. I'm really glad I found this forum. Unfortunately I won't be able to contribute much help to others here as I'm not very mechanically-natured, but I've already received helpful information from several searches here over the past couple of weeks. For what it's worth, this G37 along with our other cars make up sort of an eclectic lot, including a 2002 Porsche Boxter, 1973 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Conv., and a 2006 Ford E350 Van. Anyway, thanks for being here, and I look forward to spending more time learning about my car. The only things I know about it right now are it's a head-turner, fast, comfy, and fun.

 

Congrats on the new G and welcome to the site. Don't short change yourself, many ways to contribute other than tech stuff. Have fun!

 

Thanks for the welcome!

 

Welcome to the forum! I've also recently bought a black 2011 G37x. Great minds think alike. 😀

Is yours an automatic? If so, have you had the TSB transmission update done?

 

Congrats! The forum is a great community to be apart of. You'll enjoy it!

 

Yes it's a 7 speed automatic and I've been reading about the transmission update. No I haven't done it. I guess I'll wait to see if it's a problem. I have experienced the upshift lag a few times in driving but not so much lately. I read that the transmission is supposed to learn as I drive, and it does seem to be smoother over time - I've put 800 miles on it in the past week. Is the update something that's beneficial regardless? At any rate, I plan to flush the transmission and put in full synthetic soon - I do that with all my cars.

On another note, I just ordered the nav update and installed it yesterday. I use the nav daily in my sales job so I hope that was worth the bucks.

Thanks everyone for the welcome.

 

Welcome.... Enjoy.
