problem with m35x

Just to update, I had my first problem with m35x. Rear tire developed a leak, in which they said they couldnt repair, and looks like a bad tire. They didnt replace the tire. They replace all four tires, so I would have even tread. Amazing

Flatfoot had a 3G TL and traded it for the M35 (due to TL seat incompatibility, I think) not long ago. He had a good comparison thread for the TL and M35; this is his update.
Sounds like Flatfoot's Infiniti dealer is a lot more helpful than many of the Acura dealers TL'ers encountered with their unbalanceable or flat-spotted EL-42 Turanzas. I'm glad I have the Michelins!

For those that don't know!

Flatfoot is a former TL owner. He posted lots of good info when he had his TL and left on good terms. We requested that he keep us informed about his G35X. A little respect and patience might be in order.

FF. glad your first service was so positive. Are the seat and the ride quality holding up? Nice to hear from you.

BTW - He is also an injured Vet from our current (or the Gulf) war and a NYC cop.

Thanks, I didnt want to cause to get anyone angry. Its just that I have the unique opportunity of comparing two cars that I own or previosly owned, and trying to keep a comparison on them. They were both new cars, and mileage is only three thousand miles apart.
The m35x had almost 5,000 miles, when they swapped the tires. They think there must of been a bad batch, because a few customers have developed this slow leak, and its unrelated to the wheels. They could have swapped one tire, and told me I was lucky they were doing so, but swapped all four tires out, and made me sign for it. I was happy to. The tires showed almost no treadwear, at least that I saw with my naked eye, or could feel with the flat of my hand.
Yes I sustained an injury in iraqui freedom, and the tl seat and suspension became too difficult for my back to handle. Thus I was forced to swap to a different vehicle. It got to a point where I was not driving the tl, unless I knew that most of my driving would be on hiway. Not a good thing for a nyc commuter car. LOL
Just got back from working saint patricks day parade. What a nice parade. It was a pleasure to work this parade, as opposed to some other parades.
I wil try and post in the future to the appropriate forum.

Thanks
