2013 370z, 6000 miles and already with light squeal?!?!
 
I started noticing a light squeal yesterday while cruising at lower speeds, coming to a slow, and when i turn my steering wheel clockwise.

I did some research and some people are saying it could be brake metal touching or possibly an issue with the springs and struts. I have swift springs installed but I don't think that is what is causing the problem.

The squeal is similar to this video but nowhere near as intense:

Any thoughts before I take it to the stealership?

D@mn. Sorry for your troubles brother. Hope you find a quick solution for the Z. :(

It's got 6k miles. I'd take it to the dealer and tell them it's their problem. It's too new for it to be having issues.

Alot of people on the 350 forum seem to be getting this issue. A handful 370z but with 20K+ miles so this is definitely of concern.

Thanks for the suggestions, will give an update later today.

They are right about the dealer in having them deal with it since its under warranty and it being a 2013 with 6k. The problem is what dealer is kind enough to help. If you had a cbe I don’t see them giving you hard time. Cai maybe if you got a cell after a G3 install. As far as suspension after a spring install I don’t see them assisting due to the amount of components needed to be removed to install and align/adjust. If I were you I would still take it in to the dealer play dumb like you never lowered it since the swift drop isn’t as aggressive as like an H&R drop and have them lift it and inspect it. So let them call you out on it who cares.

OP, this is really not a big issue... I wouldn't waste my time at the dealershit, and trust me, I'm a whore for taking my car in and getting a loaner and letting them deal with problems.

If you'd like, text me and I'll give you a detailed step by step on how to fix it with $5-6 without a day burned and without the hassle of the dealershit
