Default Shifter Rattles worse than a Mustang Cobra

After reading a lot of threads, i learned Z has very noisy trans. One day after drove my friend's Mustang Codra, i feel my 07 Z 's (7400miles) shifter Rattles like coffee grinder. The mustang was a lot of smoother. Anyone has same problem? thanks!

We have been replacing some shifter ***** on the 07's for a rattle. Not the trans noise but actually from the shifter.

On the ones that are having a rattle from the shift **** it fixes it. If it's not the **** then it won't help. Take it to the dealer and have them look at it.

If you just want the noise to go away get a new stock ****. If you want something that looks better look online MyNismo.com
