370 z top issues
 
My 370 z has 3000 miles. Passenger side top has wear signs on outside. dealer added padding. Now top is having issues going up and down.

Sue ~ There have been lots of problems with the Z roadster's top (mine included). Look in the Roadster section of this forum for details. You may also wish to repost your problem there with more specifics as to the nature & location of your top wear and maybe a photo or two. Also, for the record - is your roadster a 2010 or 2011 model? Welcome to the370z.com, and hope to see more of you soon in the Roadster section.

Top Issues
 
Sue ~

Very early on (shortly after taking delivery of my Z Roadster in June '10), the top developed a big buldge on the driver's side about 4" above the window and 8" back from the windscreen. Dealer didn't have a clue, said that there's no access to that area of the top, and suggested that they would contact Nissan but would likely have to replace the top (I determined later that evening that there IS access, and resolved myself by repositioning a nylon frame rail guard).

Then weeks later, my top developed a crease/indentation/wear mark on the driver's side exactly as reported by Z-U-Later. Check the "TOP Tearing Issue" thread for details of this and other reported roadster top problems.

All of this is very good advice.
