2007 Nissan 350Z Logo

I just bought a 2007 350Z Roadster Enthusiast. This is my first sport car and do not know much about it. It run good and pretty fast. However it looks too low in the front and every time I drive over a fairly high speed bump, the button of my car hit the bump hard. This issue is very annoying. Is this a shock absorber problem or a tire coil issue??

I would have the shock absorbers checked. Sounds like they could be shot.

Sounds like you may have a wheel bearing issue based on your description. Could also be a backing plate contacting the brake rotor, but that would be a higher sounding "tinny" noise. This should be easy to determine. Jack up the rear of the vehicle and check each wheel while spinning by hand for the noise.

SOURCE: Rattle in front end on right side

your on the spot on both.
make sure the shock is tight on both end and have a rubber bushing bewteen the car fram and the shock. then try the shock first. take a look at spring while you have it out.
change the belt on the compressor and make sure the pulley is square on the compressor, and the any other pulley the belt goes.

SOURCE: 1994 nissan maxima OBD?

the only way i know of getting the codes from your car is to find someone with a MAC or SNAPON scanner or buy a scanner from autozone and get the adapter for the obd1 to obd2 port. hope this helps you !!

SOURCE: Low growling noise in front end

typically, this sounds like a wheel bearing. To test, the noise can often be altered by accellerating /decelerating, and more evident by turning the vehicle.

The truning process is to put load on one side, then the other. if the right side has a damaged bearing, for example, the noise would be noticibly altered (less in this case) when turning to the right. Load would be slightly less. Testing speed in the area of 25 to 35 mph.

SOURCE: My right front tire sounds

You didn't state what the noise sounds like but here are a couple of ideas. First look at the shock absorber to see if any fluid has leaked out. If so replace the faulty shock. Jack the car up so the right front wheel is off the ground. Grab the tire with both hands and push with one hand while pulling with the other. Switch the push-pull back and forth to see if you feel a loose movement and or any noise. Next remove the wheel and check to see if the two bolts holding the brake rotor are in tack and tight. Finally, sometimes brake pads (after some wear) have a little play when not engaged and "rattle" when the vehicle bumps. If you are not satisified with what you find or don't find take the vehicle to a reputable mechanic to be checked out. Noise from a front wheel can be dangerous.

My battery died on my 1996 BMW Z3 roadster. I bought a new battery. I put it ithe car. Then I hooked up a trickle charger. Now the car won't start. Can anyone help me? Also, how can I tell if a fuse is...

can i ask why you put a trickle charge on a new battery ? also a trickle charger that is faulty will blow the ecu. its best not to use them on and vehicle from 90's and below as they were not designed to take them. modern cars have overloaders inbuilt into the ecu so lighting strikes etc don't do any damage and the engine will run on.

The airconditioning works fine the one moment and than a slight shudder as if it is turned off and than warm air is blown......this keeps going on and on

This sounds like you may be running out of Freon. If you get refrigerant at an Auto Parts store they all come with a gauge to let you know if its running low or High, you connect this to your AC system and run the engine with the AC on. Pretty easy to follow instructions on the can.

2005 350z Enthusiast Roadster, 33k miles loose clutch

you may have a clutch problem. If it doesnt slip, I would keep driving it. 33k is awfully young to need a clutch unless its been abused...... The engine does NOT have to come out, I dont know who told you that BS???? its no different than any other rwd car.

Check Engine light on 1998 BMW Z3 roadster

yes the light is because of the gas cap being gone (sets code in evaporative emissions system), replace the gas cap, disconnect the battery for five minutes and that will turn of/reset the light, make sure u have the radio code before u do this, if u don't u will have no radio after the battery is disconnected..
