Mine did that to me when I disconnected the battery to install the steering wheel controls. When I reconnected the battery and went to test the steering wheel control I noticed that it had that error message.

To fix mine, I kept turning the Power button on the unit on/off. After about 1 hour of doing this if fixed it's self. The only thing I was doing was turning it on, listening for the mechanism to power up amd start moving, when I could not here it moving any more I would turn it off for a couple of minutes.

I think I was lucky but worth a try.

F0 = mech jammed. as a last resort = pull battery, wait, reconnect. wait for the unit to start up and press eject. if it spits the disc out - great. if not pull the unit and send it to me. have $650 handy.

the F3 error - in your case - spindle motor is dying. no spin = no data = F3. theres a variety of things that cause F3.

F0 , switches,guides, gears. most of these mechs are a writeoff when they jam. the whole thing tends to destroy itself.

    • Yes, but it's not as easy as pulling a fuse on anything other than an R32. There's a routine you have to do, involving disconnecting a loom plug and bleeding down the preload.
    • A question for tuning awd, is it possible to disable the AWD? The stagea is an EA/T AWD, Toshi had said on a GTR, he was able to disable it and make it 2wd. Just wanted to double check if this was possible
    • Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.  
    • I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...
    • Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years
