Default Rattle Noise

I've seen quite a few threads about this, Mine is no different but I'm just hoping to get an answer and don't need to worry about it too much.

Is the rattle noise in the sound something to be worried about? The sound is coming from the front of the car.

Just looking for some answers is all.

I'm taking it back to the dealership Wednesday to see if the synchros are worn out, I'll get them to check this sound too. I was just wondering if anybody would know!

Thanks!

Check, ball joints, lower inner controls arm bushing, wheel bearings, shock mounts, end links, essentially anything that connects and has a bushing of some sort.

Usually the compression rod bushings (Front, lower A-arm, rear bushing). Very common for these stock bushings to fail, especially on lowered Zs and G35s. But always good not to assume, check all the areas trav mentioned to be sure.
