Just like to say greetings to all. I located your forum performing a Google search on problem that I was having with my Nismo Z that one of your members was having the same symptoms. Luckily I have since resolved the issue and posted the solution up to this forum (see link below). http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... c&start=15 I purchased an '08 PPW Nismo 350Z #0778 about 5 months ago and love driving my Z. This is my first Z. I'll post some pics as soon as I figure out how. Can someone please provide me a hint EatMyDuZt [/img]

Hi GIXXERUK, Yes I will post some picks soon as the world slows down, if you get my drift! Hi chuds1, I just wanted to follow up on the clicking noise from the dash. Took mine into the local Nissan stealership yesterday, one of the mechanics road with me, but before I even left the lot he had already diagnosed the problem from my description of the noise. He said he had another Z in with a similar issue. So instead of getting out on the road, I just sat there on the lot and rev'd the engine to > 3500 and the noise occurred. "Yep, he said, heater core needs back flushing". He then went on to explain that the noise is caused by a valve flapping and back flushing the heater core resolves the problem. Luckily mine is still under warranty so it didn't cost me anything, but everything is back to normal. I would have never expected that a noise such as that would be caused by the heater core. It sounded electrical to me! Good luck on the resolution, keep us informed! EMDuZt

Greatings chuds1, I performed a Google search for "350Z + clicking noise + 3500 rpm" and your post emerged. I have '08 Nismo (#0778) that just turned over 4000mi. The solenoid clicking sound you describe from the left side of the dash is happening on my Z too. I thought it was related to the rev limiter I had set @ 4000 rpm's, but after resetting it to my tach red line, 7500 rpm's, the clicking noise continues to start at 3500-3800 rpm's and increases in speed the further I increase RMP's in each gear. I have an appt. next week with the local dealer to get the service rep to ride with me to try and debug the problem. You and one other person on the 350TECH.com forum have posted similar symptoms. As soon as I find out the problem I will provide information back to you. Regards, EatMyDuZt
