Stuck hatch...

I just did the two penny trick. And it seemed to have more of a forced upwards push...which makes me think it works... I'll check it again in the morning

I'll check it again in the morning to see if it was just a fluke...

just went out and checked it...

and to my dissapointment it did not fully unlatch...I had to push the button twice...

but, it did seem to have more of a push up than before...

so I am going for 3 pennies on each side and will test it again later...

Well I went to the Nissan Dealership and spoke with the service department.

He looked it up and there has not been a TSB released for the 370z for this issue yet. They are not allowed to use a 350z TSB on the 370z...

more to follow, working on getting some pics off of my cell phone sd card...

so here it is...the 350z replacement spring lift part number changed from 84415-CD71A to 84415-CD715, price is $32.00 EA.

I am going to start a new thread with this info and a phone number to nissan for people with the same issue to call and file a concern in the hopes that nissan will release a TSB for 370Z owners as well. This way we arent spending $64.00 bucks of our money to fix a manufacturing defect...
