370z problems

We need to make a thread called:

Better Call DE!

It will literally encompass anything people need to ask DE.50. And of course a **** ton of people saying, "Call DE."

Make sure your lug nuts are all tight, and what side is scraping? Both?

I just checked them and they are all torqued down. It's just drivers rear. I'll post a video ASAP.

I think I know your problem, lol
Axle click maybe? Or shot bearing?

Not a clicking type noise... bearing is a possibility. I think I need to just drive it down to his work on my day off and make him deal with the problem.

Me thinks he just likes driving my car and therefore tells me he will get it on a lift to resolve the issue, but really just takes it to work to enjoy the

I had the same type of noise I think you're describing on my G. It was a wheel bearing.

Ditto. Wheel bearing on my G37.

Good to know.

More of a growl, wheel bearing. More of a scrape, check the dust shield behind the rotor, especially if the front brakes were recently replaced.

Nah, not a thread - a smilie. Like

, only the sign says "Call DE.50".

Then we can see how many newbies ask "Hey, what's up with the 'Call De.50' smilie? Who the f is DE.50?"

More like a scraping noise. No brake work and it's in the rear. However I will check out the dust shield and make sure it's not bent and touching the rotor.

I had a pebble get stuck and it made a nasty grinding/metal on metal sound. It popped out eventually.

JENZ · 02-23-2014, 07:58 PM

I thought it was that but can't see any pebbles lodged in there. Gonna check out the backing plate in a bit and if all else fails I'll take it to the dealer myself instead of letting the spouse.
