Default Clicking all Around

I've been reading up on what i can for the Clicking noise coming form the rear.I even have a buddy at the nissan dealership who drove the car an is going to take to his shop on Wednesday but now that i drove it on a nice day i can hear it come from both sides. We thought it was the E-brake that fell apart on the back drive side. We looked it up on Nissan Tech Support that they use in there garage an it didnt state a fix or recall on it. Is there something that i can tell them to check besides the forums?

I linked the TSB repair that will fix the rear clicking noise. I had the clicking noise on my car and got it fixed under warranty. Now the noise is gone.

I have the exact same problem while driving with my 06 Z. I kept hearing this clicking/ticking noise from trunk on the passenger side. I sounds just like small rocks hitting the inside of the wheel well.

Then it started to get really annoying because it happens almost every other time when the Z ride over small bumps on the road. I thought it might be a loose plastic thing dangling around and hitting the metal frame of the car. I will have it checked out at the dealer next time.

myZter, is your noise the same as what I described? Did the TSB for the rear axle click fixed it?

I have the same "clicking" sound from my passenger rear axle. Before the car was out of waranty I took it in for the bone-heads at Twin City Nissan to look at/fix. After 4 hrs. they called me back and said to pick the car up. When I got there they told me that they didn't hear anything and all is well. I told them that I could demonstrate for them but then he said that their head mechanic looked at it too and "he's an expert on Z's" but even this genius couldn't find the problem. In fact, and I'm quoting here, "that's normal for Z's and it won't hurt anything". I asked if they had gotten any other complaints about this problem and they said no, your'e the first one. That's the moment when I really wished I had brought the TSB printout with me. My question is do the TSBs give you any leverage when dealing w/ these morons or not? I mean if I go back in and take them the Nissan TSB about this issue will they just blow me off again or what? My car is out if waranty now but I have the original slip from the first attempt, can they go back to that and still do it free? Has anyone had any luck with the TSBs?
