Mechanic couldn't help... Can you?

The noise of my throw out bearing on my 350Z used to be worth. I noticed a little bit on the 370Z.

I think everybody else here is right - it's just noise from the throw out bearing. It may or may not indicate a real problem. I'm not too familiar with the fully hydraulic "push style" TOB system that the Z has, so I can't say for sure.

Can you call that guy a mechanic?

This is the mechanic at my dealership where I bought the car!! He seemed very disinterested to fix the car, he just shrugged his shoulders and treated me as if I were an idiot. When I was leaving, I said okay well I will call you on Monday to see what you hear from Nissan and he was standing around some of the salesmen at the time and he laughed and said he won't be there on Monday.

Anyhow, I will follow up and let you guys know, thanks for your advice.

For the record, this is my first time to make this recommendation ----- go someplace else quickly. I do not think it will be healthy for you and your car to remain with that dealership.

This I would have quickly brought up with the Service Manager and GM. One thing saying you won't be there (did he offer an interim person to fill in for him?), but laughing? That strikes as "don't give a $hit" - something that I latch on to pretty instantly.
