Bad camshaft position sensors aren’t unheard of, and can cause drivability issues alongside displayed warnings in the driver computer. An Infiniti mechanic can give the sensor network and electrical system in the FX you’re considering a check, just to be safe.

Check the seats for signs of excessive wear, inspecting the leather where it’s stitched together. Inspect the dashboard for signs of cracking as well. Finally, ensure proper operation of all motorized seat functions, as well as the fuel gauge, trunk liftgate release, remote access system and audio system.

Note that a clicking or grinding sound from the rear-end of the FX while cornering at low speeds could be caused by a problem with the differential or axles, and that any unwelcomed popping or clunking from beneath the vehicle typically indicates a worn-out suspension component.

The Verdict Of A Used Infiniti FX:
The FX looks like a fairly solid used premium crossover buy, and the V6-powered FX35 should be the least-expensive model to fuel and insure. Seek a clean bill of health from an Infiniti mechanic on the electrical and sensor system, and you’ll likely enjoy a reliable crossover celebrated for its uniqueness and performance.
