I asked what if the problem comes back since other folks on the forum mentioned noise coming back after few thousand miles. They said those people must not have used the correct nissan grease when they did it.
I went in hoping that powertrain warranty would cover it. Oh well, at least the clicking is gone, it was driving me crazy with the top down or the windows down. Plus it's loud and everyone can hear it when i'm rolling through the lot.
The mechanic also mentioned that in automatics the clicking only happens once during takeoff because the torque is applied and held. But on manual cars (like mine) the clicking will happen as you apply torque and remove torque (which is what happens when you press gas and let it go). See attached screenshot of dealer invoice.
99% of dealers are retarded. Never will take accountability for their incompetence. I wonder how much crap they do wrong to peoples car without them knowing.

It has nothing to do with the grease, nothing at all. Yes greasing is apart of the process but it is a SMALL part of it. You need a properaxle nut from Kawasaki and you need to get rid of that stupid cheap crap bottle cap retainer that you slip the cotter pin through.

I swear. Nissan needs to grow a pair. CSC, clicks, engine cooling etc. If the new Z has small issues like this I doubt Nissan will fix them if they could not do it for this Z for the past 10 years. If that's the case I rather pull the trigger on a new Supra. Oh who am I kidding. . . I'd grab the new Z anyways and continue to bitch about it on this forum with you lot
