Well that sounds scary. A day late but in time for the weekend, here's the info.

I've had my car for three weeks & the top bangs the lid every time I open it. Took it to the dealer for adjustment...still having the same problem. Maybe it will stop when it warms up. We'll see. I tend to forget about it once the winds blowing in my hair. I love this car. Don't miss the old 350 at all. I'm just going to enjoy the car & keep an eye on the top. I negotiated an extended warranty during my purchase...so if things go south...Nissan will just have to replace it.

Thanks sarmyth..that looks easy enough. I trust myself before some random tech!

WOWWW! Sarmyth! You SIR are a genious!!!!! I just went out and dailed it....for thefirst time in my life... my lid cleared the roof without any baggings.
That is such an easy and life saving DIY! Thank you soooo muchhhh!!!

Tried the top adjustment. I seem to have tightened the adjustment bolt as far as it will allow....& still contacting lid. Guess it's back to the dealer...dammit!

Mine does that sometimes.... Unless my roof is broken, I refuse to take my car to the dealer... I don't want a small problem turn into a huge problem..

I have a similar issue. I took it in to the dealer, and they filed a report with the head engineering office <???>. It's been a couple weeks now and I took it back for another issue this week... they said they have not been able to resolve the issue. Curious...

I love my roadster.. for sure.. I am hoping that they resolve these top issues for me... us.

Well it's a couple years later and if any of you guys still have your roadsters I'm selling my unused smarttop module, and prepainted brilliant silver fiberglass wing. Never got a chance to install them before moving on.

Eventually got fed up with endless trips to the dealer to fix top wear issues. It was painful to watch my car slowly destroy itself day by day. Any of you guys still in your ZR?

sarmyth,

We've still got ours, didn't have this issue with the top so I didn't post in this thread.

What kind of prices are you wanting?

Not sure anyone is still around from this thread. Is this done on both sides or just the driver side?

sarmyth 11-25-2014 10:38 AM

From what i remember i think it was just on one side... But it's been many years :)

So i tried it and still got the led touching ... the thing is i still see a more place to tighten the bolt but it refuses it get so tight that am afraid to break it ... i did relese the lock nut all the way down and it went fine but the adjustment bolt refuses to go all the way down any idea
