:iagree:

i don't trust dealerships...

the way i look at it is look at the shop. look what's sitting in the shop. if cars are more expensive than yours sitting in the shop then there is a good chance they will treat your car well.

if it's your standard nissan/toyota dealership i can guarantee they don't see sports cars all that often and the techs will be more inclined to go for a 'loop'.

oh and they'll make up bs excuses as to why you need to pay them more of your hard earned cash.

there was a guy posting earlier this year saying how he heard the techs revving his engine in the shop. i'd be pissed off if they rev'd my engine significantly for no damn reason.

hope you can figure out wtf is causing it. i agree with chuck... either do it yourself or ask another mechanic at a non-dealership look at your car.

From my experience Nissan service monkeys aren't worth a ****. They can't diagnose ****. All they can do is follow the red bouncing ball on their computer screen. I hate when I go to the 'specialist' for repair help and I know more than all the mofos there.

Looks like you were right... After just about a week of my "normal" driving, it seems that the noise has just gone away.
I feel like there might be something loose behind the dash or something. Oh well. No noise anymore.
