No need to be so self-deprecating. If you want a car that doesn't drone as much, that's perfectly fine. Try to get what you want, and maybe you'll get it (and maybe not!). I really hate it when...

Had my 2pm appointment today at a different dealership, and this tech heard it right away. After a couple minutes poking around, he got pretty close to the root cause, but not quite.

There is a...

Cool, I stand corrected. However, I'm a bit puzzled at the G3's success now.

The input is appreciated, but I'm 99.99% sure it's an electronic noise. The volume doesn't increase or change with RPM. It's completely an on/off problem. Also, I would expect the noise to be loudest...

I suppose if I turned up the radio enough I might not notice it, but not at any reasonable volume. The tone isn't loud itself, but being a single piercing frequency, it's hard to ignore.

[edit]...

I think the confusion is stemming from airflow vs charge temp. The opinion you cited only addressed airflow. While stock airflow may be adequate, it's drawing hot engine compartment air. The only...

Roo, do you have a Nissan contact (the guy who flew in?) I can get from you who is familiar with the problem? Nissan isn't going to connect the dots on their own, so I'd like to give them a little...

I'll take your word for it. I haven't put my ear to the speaker, so I couldn't be sure. Sounds like your noise is louder than mine.

Definitely keep us updated.

Holy crap. I was talking to my dealer about this EXACT same problem yesterday. Two different mechanics rode with me in my car, and neither of them could hear it. They didn't dispute the noise (they...

This sounds like a good criteria to run someone out of the forum.

They can stay at 350z. Like stretch? :gtfo2:

It is a great deal (!)... if you don't mind driving a car that isn't the latest or greatest. Some people prefer the boy racer look of the 350Z. More power to them. I bet you could get a Nismo for...

If you weren't aggressive during that test drive (i.e. staying at low RPMs), it wouldn't be that obvious. If you used Drive instead of Manual, you couldn't notice it because it's turned off. BTW,...

I truly wish you luck (:tup:), but it seems odd that someone ready to put down big cash on a TT Z would ask these questions.

Bad deal. The dealer that sold me my 370 was offering NEW 08 Nismo 350's for 28 or 29k. That was a couple months ago, but I'm pretty sure those "old" Nismo's haven't appreciated.

I assume 28M is a...

Wow, they're even bigger BMW fans than C&D. Gushing about the 128i, makes you wonder how most every other publication puts the 370z ahead of (or equal to) the 135i. Granted this was a purely road...
