My check engine light came on and vehicle shifted info one gear. It was slow to accelerate and change gears. I had the code pulled and it showed p1764 direct clutch solenoid. I have researched the code which I found a service bulletin that has this code listed but it is not on the recall list when I entered the VIN number.

I had purchased my m45 2006 infiniti used feb 20,2016 the car drove good everything worked well no problems at all. I did noticed the check engine light came on I took the car back to metro honda which is where I got it from as used. The checked it out the light went off but came back on and stay. July of 2016 is when the car would just lose power cut off while driving etc. The car would take several minutes to start back up. The problem got more hecked because the car cut off one night my children and I was driving right on the middle of the road and a 18 wheeler was behind us I was able to come to a stop safely but was in the middle of the road which was a bridge. I had the car tested it came back as my cam and crank shaft sensor had those replaced not even been 2 weeks and the go still act as if no gas is getting to engine and still cuts off this is unsafe it can cause someone to even be killed. I am so scared to go long distances because I'm scared the car will just loose all power. I took the car to infiniti they couldn't even tell me what the problem was I also looked online and seen at repair pal where there was a recall on the crank shaft and cam sensor as well as fuel pump gas pedal and the recent one of the air bags. As well as a electric problem and all this was. Back in december of 2003 the only thing that was replaced on this car was the gas pedal. Something has to be done infiniti needs to recall all this on the m45 sports 2006 I feel helpless and hopeless because I don't even know if my children and I will get in this car and make it back home alive. Something needs to be done.

I was driving my car on interstate at 70mph and engine stalled, all electrical systems shut off, power steering, power brakes, vdc and ABS lights came on along with service engine soon. This was a very scary situation at highway speeds. I pulled through traffic and made it to side of highway. The engine was barely idling and running very rough. The car was turned off. I then attempted to re-start vehicle, and it would turn over, but not ignite. After several minutes and several attempts, the car engine started again. I immediately got off the interstate and took less congested roads home. The next day I drove to a car repair shop for computer diagnostic testing of service engine light. They told me the code reported a pair of malfunctioning "cam position sensors". It is inexcusable for a luxury automotive maker to have catastrophic risk exposure to driver, occupants, and other highway travelers due to a sensor failure! I called local infiniti dealership and they immediately recognized my cars problem, and then said my year is not covered under any voluntary service campaign or recall.

Yesterday my wife was driving with my daughter and two friends when the vehicle stalled and lost all power while driving on a busy road. They were very fortunate to not have caused a serious accident and all were quite frightened by the incident. The vehicle would not restart so they had it towed to a mechanic (I was out of town). Today I went to the shop where the vehicle was towed and spoke to the mechanic. We checked it together and it started up like normal so we went for a ride and the car performed normally as well, although several lights are now lighted on the dash (vdc off, slip, ras & check engine). Searching nicoclub and other forums including this site, it seems this is not an uncommon problem. This could cause serious injuries and even death so owners should be notified of this possibility.
