Is there a preference for oil for the Nismo at the dealership?

I finally got the rubber bumper springs replaced on my hatch. So far the hatch opens on the first click.

I usually use Mobil 1 but I'm switching to either Amsoil or Redline.

Did you do it yourself? Any details would be great.

It's as easy as replacing the light bulbs. All you need is to get the new hatch springs.

Can you pick those up at the dealership or do they have to be ordered?

I've had this problem with my 2010 40th anniversary since day one, but I have just dealt with it. I'd love to fix it!

Yes they have to order it. If your car is still under warranty it's free so hurry in! Otherwise they are $49 each from the dealership which I think you better off just doing the 2-cent trick to fix this issue yourself.

It fixed the problem! The dealer replaced it for me under warranty but simple to do it yourself. It just unscrews. The name and part number is: Spring-Lift 84415-1EA2E / 105Trim/Body

Mine worked for a while then went back to its old ways. Habits are hard to break!

Do you have the rubber stick on stops on the bottom of your hatch?
