How aggravating, but you know that already. There are a couple of TSB (see todays posting and link on Technical Service Bulletins) out for suspension and your description fits one of them. My way of thinking is you want them on your side so they will help and you of course will be satisfied with the service, this may take a bit of work now in that dealership if you performed a "storm out". Suggest you try another one and plan your approach, they need to feel they are the experts and although you may be a smart customer they do this for a living and you for a hobby. Don't want to sound like a lecturer or a "Grandad" as I'm neither but it may help you get a better result on your next encounter.

Depends on the source or what was traded for it (in kind or otherwise), looks a clean example though whatever you paid.

You are just trying to get someone to tell you that "you are a tease" oh go on more clues more clues

been doing the rounds this one you beat me to the posting of it though

Hard to tell, I suspect it is a combination of things: 1) not long out of warranty 2) low mileage 3) known fault 4) good will they were happy to discuss the resolution but not the reasoning, I did approach the discussion with them in the order of having recognised the issue as one of the few known faults with the Zed that comes up on the forums etc., then of course what I consider to be supporting arguments for my case versus the black/white warranty. I'll have a chat with the dealership when I stop in next week and see what their take is on it.

Definitely ! Confused and Happy, just perfect

Yeah, bought this quad processor 4meg all singing and dancing machine. Not quite sure i'm happy with vista though, maybe i just need to find my way around You aren't the first to say that and I dare say you won't be the last. Sounds a wicked machine and mods planned

Welcome, welcome ! That is quite a wait but guess you are pleased now. You are outside of my knowledge area so I can't help you I'm afraid.

Two old friends were just about to tee off at the first hole of their local golf course when a guy carrying a golf bag called out to them, "Do you mind if I join you? My partner didn't turn up." "Sure," they said, "You're welcome to play with us." So they started playing and enjoyed the game and the company of the newcomer. Part way around the course, one of the friends asked the newcomer, "What do you do for a living?" "I'm a hit man," was the reply. "You're joking!" was the response. "No, I'm not," he said, reaching into his golf bag, and pulling out a beautiful Martini sniper's rifle with a large telescopic sight. "Here are my tools." "That's a beautiful telescopic sight," said the other friend. "Can I take a look? I think I might be able to see my house from here." So he picked up the rifle and looked through the sight in the direction of his house. "Yeah, I can see my house all right. This sight is fantastic." "I can see right in the window." "Wow, I can see my wife in the bedroom." "Ha Ha, I can see she's naked! Wait a minute, that's my neighbour in there with her." "He's naked, too! Those Rats!" He turned to the hit man, "How much do you charge for a hit?" "I'll do a flat rate, for you, one thousand pounds every time I pull the trigger." "Can you do two for me now?" "Sure, what do you want?" "First shoot my wife. She's always been mouthy, so shoot her in the mouth." "Then the neighbour. He's a friend of mine, so just shoot his dick off to teach him a lesson." The hit man took the rifle and took aim, standing perfectly still for a few minutes. "Are you going to do it or not?" said the friend impatiently. "Just be patient," said the hit man calmly, "I think I can save you a grand here."

I did look for other puddings but psychiatrist reports for things like Spotted Dick Banana Custard Treacle Tart Apple Pie etc. So had to make do with the somewhat American list, not sure what a psychiatrist would have made of some of those in the list anyway Seems Carrot Cake is leading the way at the moment.

New computer - so faster processor and everything else so much faster response to get through those posts ! Happy reading, in places at least

Welcome, welcome ! Enjoy the forum and I suspect you already enjoy the car. Hope your studies go well, although the English we use on here might not be your best reference point

OK rung dealer. They are indeed following that technical bulletin one side, parts match those listed. so booked in for next week earliest date I can make it although they'd have done it earlier. So, fairly satisfied with the outcome shame not 100% paid but not a huge bunch of money, and another day with a Nissan Note or Micra, makes you appreciate the Zed !

Good one Martin, will check parts list match, I've no reason to doubt they'd be different.

Well here you go I've just had a call back from Nissan GB. That didn't take them too long to respond. They have spoken with the dealer and made the following offer: Nissan GB will pay 90% of the work and I pay 10%. The lady(Ruchi) did not know exactly what it was and suggested I rang the dealer to find out however it was a list of parts and 1.4 hours of labour. I had already pointed out that greasing was not something I'd accept and she said it involved more than that. Parts would then be under warranty. This call lasted 3 minutes and she gave me the case reference number. So, next is ring the dealer back. I can't help but feel that customer service should all be doing this from the dealer, that is how I've experienced it from Lexus / Audi / Subaru and even Toyota, but hey at least it seems a reasonable offer so far.

Thought I'd take the plunge into the more "budget" range for tyres as not tracking this car. Having managed to get all tyres into the economical and tread depth that means replacing time I did all 4 tyres on std Rays. Possibly not the best price but didn't have the time for a lot of phoning and haggling, so fronts £105 and rears £115 all fitted balanced, valves etc.. So far a few hours of dry and pelting rain not found any surprises or issues but as I've been "pootling" it is not exactly a stress test. As time goes by thought it might be worth trying to remember to update with impressions, or if others have jumped this route they might do the same.

OK, so got round to ringing Nissan GB, all very polite etc. this is a summary of what was said and what happens next, it may be useful to some of you. Rang 08457 669966 Chose option 4 "other". Call Duration was 22 minutes and 6 seconds. Call taken in Belfast Call centre by Sampo (a Finnish accent and name), English was good so no problems with accent or understanding. During the first 10 minutes and 45 seconds he took the details of the car, what had been said with the dealership. He was surprised that the dealership hadn't rung in with the issue and said he would have expected them to have done this (completely agree). I mentioned the forum and the various discussions on the topic. Then put on hold whilst he transferred call to "back office / case manager" at 12mins 36 secs into the call he came back online saying he'd forgotten to confirm the car reg and the back office would not accept the call without doing this. at 13mins 40 secs into call put on hold again. at 15:54 taken off hold and case summarised as he handed over to Ruchi at 16:26 into call Ruchi re-summarised the case and asked the same type of questions again e.g mileage, car in for P3 service, dealer asked to look at "click" etc. etc. Again was surprised that delaer hadn't rung, surprise dealer hadn't spoken about any costs... Asked who in dealership I'd talked to, then said would contact them and get back to me definately today. Asked about other cars I might have and have had, I'm not sure if the point was to decide if I spent money on cars or would be a customer they'd like to have. I don't think it should matter but having bought 3 cars in the last 12 months and likely to replace one of them this year you'd have thought they'd like to make a good impression. So call ended after 22:06 seconds, I await the call back.

It is a real positive and sharp sounding click either one of two then a gap, very hard to record due to the exhaust note, was going to see if I could find a way to edit the sound and isolate it but just way too busy at the moment. A quiet maraca isn't a bad description actually but maybe it should be two chop sticks tapped smartly together given its not a Seat and Sarnie I think you may be right.

I think I have the click, well pretty much convinced of it actually. I tried to record it but it is not the easiest of things to do so here is the clip, quite hard to distinguish but recorded in a multi-story car park to try and capture the sound more easily. Anyway, took to Nissan dealer as now just a few months out of warranty (isn't that always the way), very friendly guys but the summary as close to quote as I can recall is: "we think it is CV joint making the noise, it will not do any damage just noise, you can try ringing Nissan customer services to see if they will do anything as you know of other cases where they have, they will then probably give us a call" Now, this is not quite what I'd expected in some ways but that might be bad expectations. I'll give good old Nissan GB a call in the morning and see what they have to say. I'm guessing options are; 1) it is just noise no damage but we won't guarantee it 2) your cost tough luck even though car only done 20k 3) we're come to some arrangement but you must pay something 4) we'll cover all of it and get it fixed for you. What do you think ? [perhaps should have run a poll as I know how to do that now]

Don't know enough about Corsa's to comment but I see you crept a certain car into the background on one shot Looks tidy enough and I'd have thought an OK price, best of luck with the sale.

I was getting hungry and cakes and desserts came to mind so thought I'd share this and then nip out to get one of them. No cheating now, no no no, you are not permitted to pick more than one (this isn't aimed at anyone in particular ) Pick your dessert (only one), then look to see what psychiatrists think about you. If all of the desserts listed below were sitting in front of you, which would you choose? - Angel Food - Brownies - Lemon Meringue - Vanilla Cake/Chocolate Icing - Strawberry Short Cake - Chocolate Cake/Chocolate Icing - Ice Cream - Carrot Cake OK - Now that you've made your choice, an no changing your mind, this is what Research says about you. Angel food - Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all warm and fuzzy items. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you need an ice cream cone at the end of the day. Others perceive you as being childlike and immature at times. Brownies - You are adventurous, love new ideas, are a champion of underdogs and slayer of dragons. When tempers flare up, you whip out your saber. You are always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend to be very loyal. Lemon Meringue - Smooth, sexy, & amp; articulate with your hands, you are an excellent after-dinner speaker and a good teacher. But don't try to walk and chew gum at the same time. A bit of a diva at times, but you have many friends. Vanilla Cake/Chocolate Icing - Fun-loving, sassy, humorous. Not very grounded in life; very indecisive and lack motivation. Everyone enjoys being around you, but you are a practical joker. Others should be cautious in making you mad. However, you are a friend for life. Strawberry Short Cake - Romantic, warm, loving. You care about other people and can be counted on in a pinch. You tend to melt. You can be overly emotional and annoying at times. Chocolate Cake/Chocolate Icing - Sexy, always ready to give and receive. Very creative, adventurous, ambitious, and passionate. You have a cold exterior but are warm on the inside. Not afraid to take chances. Will not settle for anything average in life. Love to laugh. Ice Cream - You like sports, whether it be baseball, football, basketball, or soccer. If you could, you would like to participate, but you enjoy watching sports. You don't like to give up the remote control. You tend to be self-centered and high maintenance. Carrot Cake - You are a very fun loving person, who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you. You are a very warm hearted person and a little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends.

One day an Irishman who had been stranded on a deserted island for over 10 years, saw a speck on the horizon. He thought to himself, 'It's certainly not a ship.' And, as the speck got closer and closer, he began to rule out the possibilities of a small boat or even a raft. Suddenly there emerged from the surf a wet-suited black clad figure. Putting aside the scuba gear and the top of the wet suit, there stood a drop-dead gorgeous blonde! The glamorous blonde strode up to the stunned Irishman and said to him, 'Tell me, how long has it been since you've had a cigarette?' 'Ten years,' replied the amazed Irishman. With that, she reached over and un-zipped a waterproofed pocket on the left sleeve of her wet suit, and pulled out a fresh pack of cigarettes. He takes one, lights it, and takes a long drag. 'Faith and begorra,'said the man, 'that is so good I'd almost forgotten how great a smoke can be!' 'And how long has it been since you've had a drop of good Irish whiskey' asked the blonde Trembling, the cast-away replied, 'Ten years .' Hearing that, the blonde reaches over to her right sleeve un-zips a pocket there and removes a flask and hands it to him. He opened the flask and took a long drink. 'Tis nectar of the gods!' stated the Irishman. 'Tis truly fantastic!!!' At this point the gorgeous blonde started to slowly un-zip the long front of her wet suit, right down the middle She looked at the trembling man and asked, 'And how long has it been since you played around?' With tears in his eyes, the Irishman fell to his knees and sobbed;, 'Sweet Jesus! Don't tell me you've got golf clubs in there too.'

08 reg GM parked up. Did the stop, pull card and insert under windscreen wiper, did it quickly as was not in Zed at the time Not sure if many when carded but not spoken to ever make it on to the site, worth a try though.
