REAR AXLE TICKING NOISE dealers help!
i have a 2006 350z and when going slow speeds (stop/go, reverse) there is a light ticking noise. it seems like its coming from the rear passenger side near the axle/wheel. not sure what it is, but i belive it is the infamous axle problem which needs to be greased. the problem is that there is no TSB for that on the 2006, only on the previous years. what should i do? anyone in so cal go to a dealer that fixed it under warranty and not TSB? if so which dealership? i have an appointment on saturday at Team Nissan in Oxnard, if that doesnt go well i will take it elsewhere.

i got it and they had the TSB for the 03 but wouldnt fix it since it is out of warranty. They didnt seem to care that the car is an 06, but didn't fix since i was over mileage

TSB
TSB=technical service bulletin,meaning that its a tip for service techs doesnt mean that it is automatically warranty..only if it is an official recall are dealers obligated to fix under warranty.still kinda sux that it is such an easy repair that they wouldny just handle it..if your local give me a call im sure we can get it fixed for you warranty or not.

i have an 06 and i also had the ticking noise, i took it to the nissan dealership off the 22fwy and set up an appointment and done deal. i even showed the guy when i left after making the appointment and he said its usually pre 06 models. also it only took like 2-3 hours for them to lube it up.

Yeah I anticipated the same lack of knowledge from the dealership so I printed a copy of the bulletin and handed it to the service manager when he was having difficulty researching the TSB id#.
