hello all!,new member.new owner,what garages do u use hampshire area?


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

took the plunge and bought a 55 plate black 350z! had it two weeks now,

Really pleased with car nice easy power & handles nice!!!.

Had many cars in the past,many turbo and supercharged and three six cylinder bmws,love my cars &don't get me started on the bikes I have had.

I am what u call a petrol head!!!!!!!!!!!!!,

Right as with any new car u own there are a few things that need doing,

One is when letting up the clutch pedal its a bit noisy,(the noise is a creaking from actual pedal inside) it is not the clutch,

I did try some wd40 in the pedal area,no difference!.

is this a known problem??,

also passenger side window is noisy at speeds over 75mph(wind noise!).

last one I have the known noise from the drive shafts(clicking!),

I am looking to have these faults sorted out in the next few weeks as I want the car serviced as my brother & I are off round france & Italy soon,done it many times love there roads and scenery!!.

So who do people use for services in Hampshire,

I did get some prices from sparshats botley & wow that's overpriced!

Any advise would be great!!!!!!!!!!

regards,simon.

thanks,i have heard good things about h/developments,i used to get my impreza wrx serviced @ Subaru 4 u newbury, so that's not to far but is a pain if there is no loan car!,

I bought the car from fleet car sales & tom is the chap they used to do a few things before I picked it up!!

if possible I would like a place nearer!?

Welcome mate.

 

H/Dev are really worth the trip if you can do it - highly recommended.

 

Wheres the clicking coming from? There is a common problem of a 'clickey axle' which can be remedied with a bit of grease - search for it on here to see if thats your problem.

thanks all!!!!!!!!!

Horsham it is!!,

have read about greasing the drive shafts,

I will mention when I get it booked in,

I still have not found any info on my other fault though.

the clutch pedal creaks as I bring it up!, its like I can also feel the noise through the pedal if u know what I mean!?.

wd40 not helped I think the linkage/spring area may have some ware.

loving this forum must say its great and people r very helpful.

ps I did ask in the wanted section, ANYONE GOT A CAT BACK EXHAUST FOR SALE???????PLEASE!!!!

PPS humpy u still got touring wheels and bonnet for sale????
