SoCal people with their clutch out rattling noise

So from what i've been reading on these threads, most socal dealerships refuse to fix the problem and say its "normal", i have a suggestion... WE MOB A INFINITI DEALERSHIP AS A GROUP AND COMPLAIN. This noise should not be coming from a new car. Metro Infiniti is full of asian fobs who try to tell you that everything is normal without even taking a look at it.

Hello there,

So how bad is that noise for u? Is it occuring everytime you start the car? Mine is not too bad. We can set something up to storm that Metro Infiniti dealer if we get a couple of more people in this area.

I called Riverside Infiniti, when i called there was 2 service consultants working. One of them was on the phone and the other was "busy" and the lady asked me to leave a message. They still haven't called.

It's not that bad yet but I heard it will get louder. My friend with an 08 G35 S is having the same problem, he recommended me to call Riverside Infiniti. I told him I would get back to him as soon as they contact me.

I'm in. I'd like to hear them explain why it's "normal" because while it's COMMON, doesn't mean it's NORMAL. It's easy to group the 2 together.

Hey guys I haven't gotten a call from Riverside yet BUT I did get a call from my friend with a G35S with the same noise. His friend called him and said it was normal, His friend is a mechanic that has worked on G35s and 350z transmissions. The noise is from a metal piece in the transmission that you are able to move by hand. That metal piece hits against the transmission and makes a rattle. People with Louder rattles maybe I suggest you guys get it checked. Butm ine and his arent that bad so I figure it's "normal"
