How reliable is Nissan 350z & 370z ??

Daishi · 01-16-2010, 10:55 AM

I have about 6500 miles on my 09 370z its in the shop now and it was diagnosed to be a bad steering wheel lock. the intelligent key warning light went on and i couldnt start the car. had to be towed to the dealership. before that i had to take my car to the dealer for a grinding noise. after i would drive the car and get it up to temp turn it off then start it right back up a few seconds later it would make a grinding noise on startup.. dealer said it was the starter and that was replaced but my car still does it. But only when its extremely cold out below 30 degrees and only after i had just driven the car.

If i drive the car and wait a minute before starting it back up everything is normal.. Other than thos 2 things the car runs great no other issues..
