Hi There,

My Z has 50.1k miles being driven spiritually on the weekend. This afternoon I noticed a loud clanking noise whenever I reserve the vehicle.

I conducted the following tests to isolate the noise:
1) Did the noise change with speed? Yes only in reverse
2) Did the noise change going forward? No did not make any type of noise going forward
3) Did the noise change low speeds? Yes going forward I hear a click and reverse the noise is more extreme
4) does the noise happen in reverse going downhill? No noise is heard when in neutral going downhill

Do 370z diff normally go out at 50k?
How much should I expect to spend on repair?
Is this a diff problem or something else?
