I know this has been discussed a MILLION times, about what it could be and what not, but I have an 03 Z with the usual rearend Tick...it only happens when you first pull out or start to back up, and it aounds like a really loud salt shaker, kind of. Anyway...I know some people say its something with the axles needing greased, and that Nissan sells a kit, does anyone have the part number for that kit, and maybe a "how-to" of the repair. If there isnt a "how-to" I'll write one when I fix mine, I just need that part number.

I used to have it saved...but now I cant find it, I tried searching...before I get slammed for that.

 

its a bearing issue/lube.. Take it to nissan for warranty.. They should fix it no prob@!!!!!!!!

 

the only thing is, its an 03 with 37,xxx miles, is that considered Powertrain, and falls under the 5yr/50k or however many miles...I cant remember.

 

Just go to the nissan dealer and find out.. Tell them to fix it.. Dont ask if your covered.. There was a TSB put out on this already.. check it out..
