Hey Mr. Kenchan -- so I looked at the bad part at the dealer and there is no number on it that looks like a part number.

Today I officially raised the white flag on trying to avoid scraping the chin of my car (Nismo front bumper) as I pull out of the driveway. We (I live in a town house community and share a driveway with three other owners) just installed a metal grate to ease the driveway/street transition today. The Bridjit ramp wouldn't work. It solved everyone else's problem but mine. It doesn't scrape pulling in, but just barely scrapes pulling out. It's a combination of the pitch of the driveway and street, the wheelbase of the car, and the length of the nose. You can't see the scrapes unless you look under the car, so it's now just a badge of honor. The ride height looks great, and unless I reinstall the original springs, there's nothing else I can do. Okay, I feel better now.

There was, but the part number was not obvious to me. I will get a picture of it tomorrow as I have to go back there. Forgive my senior moment.

I gotta tell ya though: I use that under spoiler as a "gauge" of sorts to determine when I'm getting close!

I cannot speak highly enough about the level of service that Maita Nissan of Sacramento has provided during this issue. They let me take the Z home so that it did not have to sit there for three weeks and they are letting me keep the loaner car while we wait. BTW: it is a sweet 2012 Versa. I promised I would not take ot to the track. In the attachments below, you will find the low-res Droid shots of the failed module that I was able to take this morning. If anyone knows how to identify the rev level, please let me know. Thanks again for all the support -- this kind of stuff usually puts me in Spazz Mode but I am amazingly calm about it.
