We got a call from our dealer in Alexandria VA yesterday. He said that infiniti's engineers are 'well aware' of the issue' at this point, and are looking for a way to solve it. They are calling it the 'young ears' problem, for obvious reasons. They also said that solutions they have tried so far have been hit or miss, but one that creates more problems than it solves (generally speaking) is insulating the ECU to dampen the noise. Turns out that spraying foam on an ECU will cause it to heat up too much. Go figure. Right now I've got an old comforter stuffed in the passenger footwell. It works, kind of. So, bottom line - infiniti knows, and is working on it. The very latest I'd expect a solution is right before they roll out next years models. They dont want to perpetuate the issue, but the die has been cast for our model years.
