Infiniti is a division of Nissan responsible for producing high-performance luxury vehicles. It is part of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance - the most prominent automotive alliance in the world, established in 1999. It has a strong history in motorsport, sponsoring Red Bull before signing a technical partnership with the Renault F1 team in 2016, though Infiniti has since withdrawn from its involvement in Formula 1. In 2018, Infiniti partnered with Marvel Studios to promote its XQ50 model in the Avengers: Infinity Wars film, in which Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D., was seen driving the vehicle before being turned to dust.

The gearbox's role is to change the speed of a vehicle. Due to the number of moving parts involved, gearbox problems are relatively common. Below are some signs to look out for and potential causes.

If your car slips out of gear, the gears are likely worn down. Low transmission fluid can cause your gearbox to be noisy in neutral, or your car may not go into gear at all. Checking the fluid level is simple, as we explain here.

When you notice your clutch dragging, this often happens when the flywheel and clutch fail to disengage. A burning smell may be due to the transmission fluid overheating. As soon as you notice these symptoms, contact a car gearbox specialist who can offer advice.

Manual gearboxes are usually easier to maintain because they are simpler; an automatic gearbox repair or semi-automatic gearbox repair requires more specialised skills, so it's essential to find the right transmission specialist.
