Incredible that some dealers are still clueless on this issue

Went to the dealership last week, and the service guy handling it said there was a fix and he ordered me a new ecu straight up without asking to listen to it. It was a first after many attemtps to get someone to fix it. I asked bumblez, another user on this forum cause he said he had gotten it fixed at a dealership in richmond, va and i called up the guy. Was going to use him as a reference at my dealership but like I said he just ordered a new part straight up. I am so relieved now !

Anybody in the D/FW area found a dealership that will fix this problem? I haven't taken my 370Z in just yet (it does have the high frequency issue), but I called Nissan of Fort Worth and the service manager was absolutely clueless about this.

Yeah it is but at the same time not surprised, Nissan probably wants to keep it on the DL, I guess they initially thought it was only a small percentage of vehicles that had this problem but their wrong lol. Hopefully a TSB will be out in 2 to 4 weeks.

It has also cost them sales. I was dead set on getting one until I took a test drive, heard the sound and found out Nissan wasn't acknowledging the problem. It also made me wonder what other problems they conveniently ignore.

I was thinking the same as a I drove home, we should thank everyone for their persistence in complaining about this issue. Nissan finally recognized that it does bother people and it probably did affect sales. I heard some other owner actually got a full refund for this problem, if they don't fix my mine I intend to do the same.

Maybe get a GL like Tammy lol Nahh getting another 370z car is way too fun to drive.

you don't want a GL... It isn't a Z...trust me

I mean..I like it...serves its purpose for what *I* need it for..but a Z it is not. I feel like I'm floating down the road...I miss feeling like a part OF the road

The luxury is nice.
