Maybe there is hope.....????

Like many Y34 owners, my cluster went......first the gas level, then the speedo. Well after a year, there may be some hope...

Here's the email I got from the NTSB.....


Dear Sir,

Thank you for reporting to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in April, 2010 concerning inaccurate fuel gauge reading on your 2004 Infiniti M45. We have received additional complaints recently. To help us further evaluate this issue, please take a few minutes to respond to the following:


  • Was there any dash warning light or chime prior to the vehicle running out of fuel?
  • Has the vehicle been repaired? Was the problem with the dash fuel gauge or with the fuel level sender at the fuel tank? If repaired, please fax (202-366-1767) or email me a copy of the repair invoice.

Thank you very much.

Let's hope it doesn't take another year to come up with the solution......:pat:
