- In this video I go through the steps to fix the rear axel clicking noise that happens on the 370z, after a few hard starts and drifting.
Tools/ parts needed:
New castle nut: www.fowlerspar...
Cotter/ split pins (product code: 40073-0L700): www.ebay.co.uk...
Axel washers: www.torqen.uk/...
Both my Z's did this, my 13 touring sport and my 17 Nismo. The kawasaki castle nut fixed both of them!
Good video to the point and no annoying music.
Mine does a click noise but not sure which one it is. It kinda happens when I’m at 3k rpm and let off
Great vid bought my parts the other day and of to tackle it now on the drive 🤞🏻
Thank you this video was very helpful brother great job
I did the same exact thing but the clicking came back. I'm guessing mine is more severe than others. The recommendation for that is to remove the rear dry shaft and turn it Is 180ﾟand reinstall.
ever find a fix, mine did the same thing
@@butertoast4 I didn't, sorry
GREASE THE SPLINES. ffs
@@TheGuruStud did that it came back a few weeks later like I said I believe my condition is more severe
Surely you can just spin the worn retaining cap to a non worn tab and re grease, tighten and new pin
Great vid. Did you just get one washer per pack? Torqen want £8 per pack and if I need six this is gonna stack up!
Hi, did you happen to sell this car? Bought mine coming up to a year ago and has almost the same modifications except for the cold air intake and oil catch can. Mine has those custom sequential drls also. REG: BN67 KNO
I have a s15 with the exact same noise , it this the case or is it the whole axle ?
On a Nissan S15? It's likely to be your driveshaft joints or (hopefully not) the diff.
I hear the clicking noise when I hit 10mph after that I don’t, is it bad if I drive for hours on the freeways like these ?
it should be fine i drove mine the other day but its just a bolt it wont fall off or anything
Can you use a 4th washer? Or would that affect the safety and integrity of the axle/hub?
if needed to line up cotter pin hole yes.
well done
Do you have a link for Kawaski nut and washers?
In the description mate
I’ve owned my Nissan 370Z for over 12 years and I never experienced this issue. He must drive his Z hard.
Didn't really drive mine hard and it did this.
Same here it’s more of an inconsistency thing, mine just hit 93k guy before me drove it a little hard here and there but it just breaks eventually
Yeah i don’t drive my z hard i just sometimes drifted
This is extremely common on the Leafs, the TSB from Nissan is for basically everything that used this design from Leaf, Sentra, Versa, 370z, and a bunch of other cars. It seems to be a torque related issue as the leafs were a leading indicator for the fleet. You're also supposed to grease the axle mating surface per the TSB.
I’m on my third Z and they’ve all needed this treatment. Not hard driving, just crap roads in uk.
Idk about in the uk but in the us the Nissan dealership covered it and didn’t need to pay anything and my Z was out of warranty
Do you have to bring anything to the dealership or this is like a recall? Mine just started to make this annoying noise 🤣
My 09 370z is making a very loud clunking and chirping sound from the rear when transfering from accelerating and decelerating, i got the drive shaft inspected and its fine. I also just installed a Z1 LSD about 1,000 miles before the sound started. Anyone have any ideas?
Could be the rear diff bushings, search for common problems for 370z, most list this as an issue.
@@twoswords4318 it has new bushings, it turned out to be the axles, thanks for your help tho
Same noise my mustang makes it does it when I give it torque
what's the point of a torque wrench if u are over torqueing it
