When I bought my 54 plate DE a couple of years ago it had around 25k on it, I just acted like it was any other car I've bought an did the usual preventative maintenance as I knew by looking at the old MOTs it had done around 1k miles between some of them. Used it daily since then an apart from the exhaust rusting away an fans stopping working it's been completely fine. I do feel like I'm starting to come into the age an mileage range that the bushes are going though.
Yeah top mount came to my mind as I'm had creaking on previous car an it was top mounts. They a common thing? Haven't seen them mentioned on here much. Is it just like every other car they could just go?
Video of the noise here

That's it at its worst
I've started getting a creak when I'm turning slowly, it only happens when I'm turning right. It's like a metallic creak almost a knock. Is this gonna be the banana arm gone or possible something else?
Thanks
Always had stone chips on the front of the car it doesn't really bother me but I recently got quite a big chip on the wing. I've checked it today an it looks like it is rusting. What's the best way to try sort it.
Ha I will no doubt be in contact with you guys soon then after I find out what the insurance renewal is like
Sure I bought the system from you as well probably should have just got it as a whole back then
Just a quick question. I have the cobra resonated system fitted to my car but it's still the stock y-pipe on there. Will the sound of the exhaust change much of I add the cobra y pipe? It's just I quite enjoy the noise as it is wouldn't want it to get much louder or have any rasp to it.
Thanks
Ah many times I was stopped on the hard shoulder of the M8 with the fans not kicking in by themselves, having to give them a wee knock to get going
Mishimoto fans are a saviour lol
Yeah I only go with the infiniti dealer as there service has always been great any time I've went.
Decided to go for the qx50 as the courtesy car this time lol
That does seem quite excessive, booked a service today with infiniti an doubt it'll be much more than £120. Just a P1 service mind but had a P2 done there before an had excellent service from the guys
Yeah the problem I had was getting into reverse so looked where the shifter was catching an filed away it didn't solve it 100% but just using the shifter it filed it away by itself. It does sound more like the shifter plate isn't aligned right if it's 5th to 6th
Going from the 350z to that Infiniti is a bit crazy I remember when they give me it I was impressed with all the gadgets lol
Colour is your car does look amazing, went from one of my favourite colours to the other, black an red
Same thing happened to me, I went for the mishimoto fans and haven't had a problem since an hopefully no chance of the same failure happening again
They are incredibly loud though lol
