Taking my just-purchased Z in for warranty work... Anything else I should check out?

Jayhovah · 07-14-2014, 09:28 AM

I just got delivery of my 2011 PW Base+Sport on Friday. I noticed the steering wheel wobbles a little on medium speed breaking and I figure the rotors probably need to be resurfaced. I'm still under warranty so I am taking it in to the dealership on Wednesday to get checked out.

Anything else I should have looked at while I am there? My steering lock has been functioning perfectly all weekend =)

see if your hatch opens with one press of the button. if not they have new rubber springs.

I press the button and it pops open.. it doesn't spring all the way open but I am assuming it just pops up a little. Good assumption?

yah, as long as you can open the hatch with your hand after one press, then it's good.

the earlier models sometimes needed two presses as the spring was too short.
i used 4 pennies, but dealer sells new springs under a TSB.
