HELP !! New user
hi guys i need help with my Z
just got a 2008 350z touring Automatic with 46,000 miles , the owner did not have maintenance record.
in how many miles do i need to change the transmission fluid? n what kind?
When spark plugs need to be replaced? how many miles and what kind?
BIG problem., when i brake slow, before stopping the care hesitates a little , does not do that if you break hard, only wen you break slow. DO i need a break flush?
What is a good oil for my 350z? what do you guys prefer? or it dosnt matter?
MY steering wheel is a little off, car goes straight when its cricket.. i believeve i need to balance the tires and do a alignment .. correct?

If I were you I'd change the ATF soon just to be sure it's good. Be absolutely sure it's ONLY Nissan S Matic ATF. Nothing else.
Engine oil? Amsoil 5w-30 full synthetic or Mobil 1 5w30 synthetic are great oils that i've run in my Z.
I wouldn't worry too much for the spark plugs until a little later.
EDIT
... and search next time. It's all been answered

Spark Plugs - 105K miles
Brakes - pulsing of the brakes at low speeds could indicate warped rotors. you might be able to get them resurfaced or if they are too worn or warped, they need to be replaced.
Oil - any good name-brand oil will do. just remember to replace regularly.
Steering - get it aligned at a good shop. Balance never hurts either.
Some good recommendations already given by fellow members.
Like many new owners unfamiliar with a Z,they get a bit paranoid.
Plugs not needed with those miles.Check the filter(intake).Without
knowing what oil was used or when,I'd just do a synthetic blend.
I use Valvoline .5w30 is the correct weight.Get the front alignment looked at.
Check your tire for wear.Especially the fronts...inside wear.At those miles,
A/T fluid change is not necessary.Just use only Nissan fluid.The rotors as mentioned
are probably warped.I'd check the brake pads while you are at it.
