I have the same issue with the last fuel gauge LED not lighting up too.
I have made an observation over the last 7 months, that, if I fill up all the way to the brim, the last LED light won't turn on, but if I fill up just til the pump clicks off, 9 out of ten times the final LED light will turn on at startup. Also have noticed the final LED light coming on after driving about an hour after a "full-to-the-brim" fill.

Three issues w/ mine, which I purchased 11 months ago, and has 14,000 miles:

1) Rear hatch spring issue
2) Transmission rattle while at a stop, engine at idle. The rattle goes away when the clutch is pushed in. I've had many manual trans cars, and this rattle is significant, especially for a car like the Z.
3) Rattle coming from the right side of the car which increases with speed. This started yesterday, and doesn't seem to be the tire, but seems to be coming from the right front area of the car. I don't have much to say to further describe this.

All three issues will be addressed at the dealer (my first dealer visit since buying the car), but curious to see if anyone else has issues two or three.

When I had a rattle coming from the side of the car 4months ago, I did not realise it was a slow tyre puncture til 2 months later, when the tyre finally gave in. Same thing: no rattle at low speeds, worse when I speed up. Eyeballed the tyres when I first heard noise, no abnormalities. My advice, have your front right tyre checked properly.

Nah. I overfill until it's past the internal lid thing and still
missing the final led.

what do you mean by internal lid?

So... that being the case, I assume that we don't have the TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) in Australian 370Z's. I did read on one of the forums that we do have it, but I was surprised to read that because I haven't seen anything relating to it on my car. KiddAdelaide will be the one to know for sure if his tyre went flat.

No TPMS, and again I ask, why don't they make it standard here for all cars to have it like in America? Don't get me started on the reasons why we should!
