Dealership told me that the endlinks are NOT attached and to attach them they wanted 120.00, which is complete b.s. They can't be THAT hard. I have hatchkis sway bars so the end links probably just wiggled off.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any suggestions while i'm under the car?

UPDATED IN POST #6: More problems, currently SOL

 

sway bar endlinks...allen wrench and a 17mm wrench...

 

What do you mean they're not attached? They don't wiggle off!

 

I said the same thing......the receipt today said "Customer declined to reattach sway bar"

Thank god a member on here is going to help me with it and help me install some serpentine belts (stealership wanted 190)

 

oh jesus this is scary.

have friend remove wheels and look for himself(friend, acquaintance, other member, it doesn't really matter...just someone who has 1/2 a clue what they are looking for)...or could crawl under the car...but that's less exciting.

 

WTX you are telling me!!! Ever since I got the car back i've had nothing but problems!

The car now makes a whiny squeeking sound under acceleration but disappears when I brake! WTF. My car is also lowered so I was pulling out real slow and this moron decides to come out through the corner like he's Johnny Tran and honks his horn so I had no choice but to step on it or else I would've been SOL, however I heard a huge scraping sound. Painful but this is AFTER I heard the sound.

ingramstar01 is willing to help me and i'm extremely thankful. Will report back with updates! I hope to get this resolved, I have no confidence in the safety of my Z.

<----Spent all of my money buying the Z.

Unfortunate mods so far:
-Fix vacuum seal leak (60.00)
-Replace MAF (750)
-Replace window motors (300 for labor and parts)
-buff out random scratches (120)

Future mods:
-Replace cracking serpentine belts
-Fix the swaybar issue

*sigh* at least I don't have the tire feathering issue, lol

 

Please post pics of what is wrong with the sway!!!!

The belts are $35 and 25 minutes of your time to swap them. Find a local Z driver who wrenches and buy him a 12 pack.

 

+1 - there are plenty of ppl out there that will do that. Dont be scammed by the dealerships.

I would also suggest reading up as much as u can about cars in general.

 

I believe there are pictures of all this in the do-it-yourself section here. Good luck.

 

Yeah no kidding right? Well I can't get any pics at the moment but if me and Ben can't figure it out then I will post pics and ask for suggestions.

This is exactly what it says on the Nissan Invoice

"Customer declined recommended service(s) at this time
idrs drive belts, brake flush, transmission service, power steering flush, sway bar link reattachment

 

def. get pics up here if you and your friend aren't confident when you see/don't see anything take pics...a few...from different angles. With pics we can be of a lot of assistance. I'll try to keep my sarcasm at bay.
