  4. Spotted this evening on Queen Elizabeth Way, Ingleby Barwick, reg ended in ZED.... nice, black and quick, I was turning right at the roundabout, was this you?
  5. Fletch Just got my first ZED and Phil made contact about servicing just before he fell ill. Great if you can setup and you can have my business. Based in Teesside near Shuck. Please let people know your location!
  6. Those in the North East, are there any alternatives to Evans Halshaw in Middlesbrough?

    Brake Problem

    Thanks for the suggestions but I don't think its the brake sticking after they have been wet. Its not a clunk, it feels like the antilock kicks in, a quick vibration you get just for a few seconds.

    Brake Problem

    I have not had my first 350 for long but it has a brake fault. If the car has been parked for a while and I reverse then move forward the first time I brake it sounds as if the antilock kicks in for a second. One I have braked once the problem doesn't happen again until the car stands for a while. If its been parked for a short time, no problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated!! Cheers Les
  10. I had the opposite with Directline, changed in October to a 350z, they put my annual quote up to £660, penalty if i moved. Now ready to move having got quotes from links on this site, Directline post me a quote at £397, same conditions. If I go online £550... confused... you will be!! Think I will go with the post quote this time. Les

  14. Hi Can anyone recommend a good place to get servicing done in the North East please? Had my 350z about eight weeks and its service is due in the not to distant future and don’t really want to hand it to my local Nissan dealer. I am near Middlesbrough / Darlington. Thanks! Les
  15. Window leak now fixed, grease and a little packing worked well. Thanks
  16. Hi Whats the best way to get an ipod to work with the Bose headunit without having to resort to fag lighter fm plugings and charger leads etc. Seen the US-Spec unit but can't find a similar kit available in the UK? thanks Les
  17. Window working fine, steps down and up with no problems. grease now in place with tape as suggested
  18. hi, thanks for the suggestions,going to try the easy ones first tape and grease! Found the guide on how to get the inner door skin off, anyone know if adjustments can be made?
  19. Hi Had my first 350z for a few weeks now and what fun. Top car with no modern bells and whistles just power. Slight problem with the drivers side roof during the heavy rain this week as I have a slight leak at the top where the passenger window meets the door rubber. Water is slowly seeping in and a few dribs are on the inside of the door and run onto the carpet. It looks like the rubber is just not tight enough against the window. can anyone help with this one ??? Is the a common fault? New rubber door seal needed. Car is a 350z 05 plate roadster. Thanks (in advance)!! Les

    20"s on a Z

    Hi I have just bought a 350 and it has 20" on as well. COmpletly new out of the box with no miles on the rubber. Ride is harder as others have said and at speed it does tend to 'follow the tracks' on a motorway more than stock rims. Must keep you overall wheel diameter withing 1/4 to 1/2 inch of original as I understand your can issues with the car's electronics? Les
  21. All After a few months of looking, got my first 350Z this afternoon. Picking it up next Sat... it will be a long week!!! Les
  22. All Thanks for the welcome, I am based in the North East near Yarm. I would agree I need to get a ride in one, been looking ages after my essential Alfa petrol head experience (that went wrong in the normal Alfa fashion!!) Still unsure about waiting or not!! Les
  23. Hi Just joined after finding the site whilst looking for my first 350Z!! Not sure if to go for one now or wait to see what Nissan come up with on the 370? Les
