Default annoying squeaking sound at low speeds...

I just noticed that my Z is squeaking at parking lot speeds. It's a very dissonant sound that may be related to a brake or chassis component. There's some type of metal-to-metal contact going on but I can't seem to figure it out as it's intermittent. (It seems like one of those nightmare noises that always disappears when you take it in).

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? It's driving me crazy...

Same thing here! Its in the rear. Push down on the rear and it squeaks. Sounds like athletic shoes on a hardwood gym floor. Bushings?

Okay so atleast I'm not the only one (I was starting to think that I was imagining it or something)...

It seems sort of odd though because I only have about 3,600 miles on the clock.

If anyone finds the source of their noise, please post your findings.

If I can't get this sorted out in a couple of weeks, I guess I'll take her into Performance Nissan here in CA.

I have the same problem with my brand new Z. It sounds like people playing on a tenis court and come from the rear suspension when I hit bumps... Can anybody help me?

I have the same problem...coming from the driver's side rear. I got out and shook the plastic covering on the rear strut bar and it made the same squeaking sound. I have yet to find a solution to stop the squeaking.
