I been hearing a little ticking noise coming from the rear, i'm not sure if it's the suspension or brakes making that noise. ;( any idea?

 

not enough info to go off of pal. it could be the axle clicking issue that many folks have had as well.

 

i can only hear the clicking when going slow. If it is the axles, is it gonna be expensive?

 

it might help you isolate the source if you go in a tunnel or under a bridge near a wall and go whatever speed makes it the most obvious to hear.

if it is the rear axle clicking, it may or may not be covered under TSB 04065A (dated November 2005)

 

damn ;( can't find tunnels or bridges around here haha.

i think i'm going to take it to les schwab n have them check it out. thanks anyways.

 

you could research rear axle clicking here on the forum and decide if it sounds similar. you could then call your local dealership if it sounds like that may be the same problem and mention the TSB to see if it would be repaired for free.

 

"little ticking" noise could also be a screw or just a rock stuck in the tire.

 

^
that actually could be a very good possibilty. But like others said it might be your axles or maybe your diff??

 

aftermarket coilovers? Give us a parts list.

 

If Ernie worked on your car, it'd be suspension. If not, who knows?

<3

 

I was going to say, I did not work on this guys car.

 

is your car automatic?

 

Les Schwab probably waste of time and money. Find a local 350Z guy to help you find the problem or try a "good" dealership, they will be familiar with our car platform and it's common issues. Schwab MIGHT find the problem but will always find the bill.

 

les schwab did a inspection and couldnt find anything wrong ;( and no they didn't charge me. it was all free.

and there's no 350z guy here... maybe in tricities but that's an hour away.

 

they couldn't find anything wrong because they don't know what they are looking for. they deal with generic repairs and installs, wear items, brakes, tires..

 

yeah probably true. i just wanted to make sure it wasn't brakes and suspension going bad i guess. i didn't hear the sound yesterday.

 

the clicking-sound-of-doom is back ;(
i should really take it into a nissan dealership..

 

either of these 2 threads may prove to be useful if the issue is what I think it is (just guessing of course.)
