Soon after buying my 350Z I heard a popping noise that sounds like it is coming from the left front wheel area. I first noticed the sound while backing out of my garage in the morning. Now I am noticing it when I am decelerating quickly and turning a corner at the same time.

I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same problem.

Upper control arm bolts are loose. Seems to be a common problem.

 

YEAP!

 

How noticeable is the "pop"?

 

The pop is load enough to be hear inside the car with the windows and doors closed. The wrench turner at the dealership said he could reproduce the sound.

Thanks for the info. I'll pass it along to the service tech at the dealership. I'm approaching 6000 miles so I plan to have the oil changed again.
