Good afternoon! My 2017 370 Tech has an issue that is perplexing. On a good paved road I hear an annoying buzz from the rear right hatch area. Once I go over a very modest bump the carpenter bee is unleashed..An odd sporadic event ..my dealer, of course, has never heard of such a thing! Has anyone else experienced this phenomena?

I am not a mechanic but my 300zx did that & it was the fuel pump trying to go out and getting weaker. Just a guess.. Someone else can give you a better answer. You need to post a sound clip & of course a pic of your new 370Z(CONGRATS)

Welcome, I'm in Columbia Sc as well.

Volk Z · 05-31-2018, 09:59 PM

That sounds odd... hope you didn't get stung

Could be a number of things; I would first remove everything from inside rear compartment & ensure nothing has got underneath spare tire/subwoofer or either pieces of the foam.
Ensure tire & tools are down tight.
License plate could make noise,could be Exhaust making noise,evap cannister cover....but if your dealership is D**K S***H, that could be your problem.
I’m in the Columbia area as well & would be glad to help take a look at it.
Just shoot me a pm & we can coordinate a meeting place.

Welcome to the 370Z forums. Post some pics if you can. I never heard any odd noises or buzz noises from my Z. You could try taking your Z into your local Nissan dealership service department or mechanic and ask them to diagnose your Z.

Volk Z · 06-01-2018, 06:43 AM

You all are hilarious... the guy said the buzzing noise was a bee!! There was some serious ADD when reading this haha.

Congratulations and welcome.

Welcome and befriend the bees, never know when you need them on your side. Also check license plate first, easiest solution to start with. This was my issue.
