Yeah, something like that. Telling them its an intermittant problem that I can temporarily fix by hitting the lock solinoid. Might print out this thread, depends how receptive they are. If they want to do me a solid, great, if not, I tried and can't fault them for it.

Honestly this is my first Nissan, I bought it in August and stored it at the end of October. Past experiences have been with Honda and GM dealerships. The service I got from Honda was second to none! Very helpful, and very honest. GM on the other hand, their service has been horrible. I have needed to print off fixes from the Internet for them before, I've also had to do my own repairs because the techs couldn't fix it. And it wasn't isolated to one dealership. I got this kind of service from 4 different GM dealers. It will be a very very long time before I spend any more of my hard earned money on a vehicle made by General Motors.

Hopefully Nissan's service will be closer to what I got from Honda... we'll see...

Edit- my Z still has a year of factory warranty left.
