Same thing happened with mine got a new stick from the dealer wasn't too much, Alex probably still your best bet though

Are you from hamilton AMR?

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.

Spotted leaving that wee pub/hall looking place just down from the park in chatelherault about 1 o'clock this morning.

Thought that might have been me there but reg doesn't match lol

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?

So possibly the drop links then, I would prefer it to be them than the banana arm if I'm honest

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

Would a tiny drop of kurust and then fill it in with paint work?

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.

Think the infiniti garage I use were charging around £60 to supply an fit the belts

Nice, it would be the place I would take mine so was just wondering cheers

How did it go today??

Good luck man, also good to know that's the closest place for an uprev lol

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

Yeah I always assumed it would get abit louder but it's not gonna become unbearable especially with stock cats still there

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

I was gonna say I thought I had found something to spend some of my bonus on but Alex in there first lol

Your just up the road as well!

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
