Hatch/Trunk Problems
!!For 370Z Owners with the Stuck Hatch Release Issue!!

That's cool that a couple pennies per side fixes the problem. It hadn't ever bothered me that much to look for a solution but I may go ahead and do it now that I know there is one. That said, I'm curious to see if the hatch falls on my head this winter, like my 350Z did, or if it will stay up like it's supposed to...lol.

Id rather directly fix the problem rather than have coins sitting in my hatch all ghetto style, the other option is pay $60 for springs. Im going to remove the weight from the hatch and see if that helps

Also, when you get used to the small effort required to close the door, you fail to close Ford Explorer doors on the first two tries.

30. Hatch wont open with one press of the button, have to put your stuff down and use two hands to double press the button

I yell at my GF for slamming mine all the time. She is used to her VW Beetle, which requires Mr. Olympia bodybuilding style strength to shut.

So much of this.

My gf used to slam the door all the time and get yelled at for it. She's finally caught on now though. The hatch thing is such a nuisance. It'd be nice if it at least sprung up like an inch so you could actually open it with one hand.

Seriously though. Have you ever felt a mustang door?? Holy heavy! if you park on an incline and the door swings toward you, you have to be a body builder to open it!

the fact that nissan made the car look so good it attracts every single punk kid ricer with a honduh into thinking you want to race at stoplights. strangely, it even works on moron little **** pickup truck drivers with the 6 inch lift and off-road tires into thinking the same thing

My trunk lid is bipolar. Sometimes it works fine, others I have to press button and pull up in sync.

31. Cubby lid opens up, (350z slide inside) and size is super small, could of been bigger...since we are being negative Nancy's. LOL

One reasom to get nav if nothing else. Gotta do something with that huge gap other than a vertical glove box. Maybe a PONG video game.

32. When you turn the fan speed on the climate control on from the off position, the default is set so the A/C turns on so you have to push it to turn off the a/c compressor. Should be the other way around unless you are using defrost.

I just make sure to turn it off (not leave it on Auto or an on setting) and it doesn't bother me.

If I turn mine off with the A/C on, it turns back on with it. If I turn it off with no A/C, it keeps it off when I turn the fan on. Have you tried that?

33. (And somewhat related to door heft)...I can't get in or out of my car without bumping my feet against either the door or the kickplate. Happens. Every. Time.

It took me a lot of re-reading your post to understand what you were trying to say, but I think you mean, if you turn your CAR off leaving the fan speed on, the A/C will be off or on depending on where it was when you turned the car off?

That does work but prior to turning off my car I like to turn everything else off; when it is cold out, I don't want to start my car and have cold air blowing on me before the car warms up, and when its hot out I don't want that gush of hot air blowing on me at startup as well.
Also, I never want to start my car with the air compressor on, it just seems like unnecessary strain on startup. I rather get everything fired up, then turn on the accessories.
