Nice looking, 'sporty' for a large sedan. Loved the leather seats for the first 6 years, but then they started to wear badly. Same with the sunroof, and the brakes. After the 6th year, several 'little' things became problems. I kept this car for 10 years and I liked many things about it. But the last few years were frustrating from a maintenance perspective.Jun 05, 2013

The 2nd gen Q45 (Y33 Cima) is an absolutely stunning car in both appearance
and functionality, inside and out. The interior is extremely comfortable and
functional. The Touring model came with all the luxurious bells and whistles of
it's time and is made with quality materials and craftsmanship which is more
than
I can say about the new cars of today.
It's 4.1 liter V8 is quite powerful given it's age and you can definitely feel it
even though the car is as heavy as it is. By today's engine standards however,
it would not be considered a top of the list powerhouse by any means.
The Touring package came with adjustable, active dampening suspension. The
car handles like a dream even at very high speeds which is surprising given it's
weight and physical size.
Q45's are said to be extremely reliable and will last anywhere beyond 200,000
miles if they are correctly maintained. Mine however has given many many
problems, though it never actually STOPPED running and I was able to drive it
during most of the issues. Basically I've never been stranded by fault of the car
itself.May 14, 2012

rough idle
I have a rough idle, which doesn't seem to affect acceleration (yet), but it is annoying as heck. No codes are thrown.

Power Steering fluid leaking from reservoir cap!?
I took the cap off earlier today to check the levels because of a whining sound when i turn. It was full so i put the cap back on and planned to get it flushed first paycheck of this job i'm going to start next week. I started my car to drive it around the house to my garage and it was leaking a lot from under the cap. I put it on tight and even took it off and put it back on as tight as possible. The cap seems to be in good shape. Could it be more complex than just needing a new cap?? I NEED to be able to get to this job. This is my only car and money is low. Things are dire.
