That’s reassuring, thanks. What do you think of these oil pressure numbers:

Cold 1800rpm 100psi

Hot idle 950rpm 45psi

Hot 2000rpm 70psi

Hot 4000rpm 90psi

thanks

Andy. 

Manual definitely my preference for any car but sounds like the auto box is ok though. Lots of nice looking autos around,I’ll try a few and take it from there. Many thanks. 

I currently have a 350 but I’m thinking of trying a 370.  Should I go for manual or automatic?  Any other tips appreciated. 

My 350 is a 2008 HR on 83,000 miles.  It never burns a drop of oil and pressure seems fine.  Should I worry about the gallery gasket?  I hear horror stories!  

Yesterday my main beam and rear wiper wouldn’t switch off. After c30 minutes they seemed to sort themselves out. Could it be water?  I don’t use her in the rain but she is kept outside.  Many thanks in advance.  

My 2008 350 (83k miles) has started a low pitch whirring noise.  The pitch varies a little with speed.  I'm sure its not from the engine as it is still audible when the clutch is in and free wheeling.  Could it be the diff or bearings??  Any advice much appreciated.

Had a couple of boot latch mechanisms failing on the hrs, you might have to crawl into the boot somehow and pull the kidnap release, think it’s the plastic cog in the actuator that fails 

Thanks for the tip.  Fiddled about with the lock and put some vaseline in it and it seems to work fine now.

The boot on my 2008 350Z won't open. The button has gradually been getting less responsive over the last week. Now there is no click when I press it and it won't open at all. Any ideas?

I’m new to 350z and looking for a recommend supplier for original or better parts?  I need drop links and a wheel bearing, for now. 
Many thanks, Andy.
