you guys who think u have it but dont know, DONT have it! this usually occures when at a low speed and then you increase speed. The tapping increases with your speed and decreases with speed as well. it doesnt always happen just 20 percent of the time. SOMETIMES at higher speeds but rarely.

 

Guys would this apply for me :

Everytime I hit the slightest bump my dash board sounds liike its about to collaps, no exaggeration.

It really doesnt pend on the rpm, just the dam bumps it rattles like crazy


?

 

I actually have the same problem as you. Everytime I hit bumps I hear a creaking/tapping possbily coming from the center dash speaker. Next time I go in for an oil change I will bring this up to them.

 

damnit i got this last night.... time to go to the stealership

 

The same exact thing happened to my 08. A piece or sealant from the radiator got loose and would make a tapping noise that was extremely obnoxious. At the dealership they told me it was "very rare," but it happened to me. Bring that up to them, they may know what you're talking about.

 

ya had it fixed by ericksons in edmonton heff. they just due a flush and you are good to go.

 

I think I have this now, lol, it was only a matter of time. I was hoping my G would spare me this. Add this to the laundry list of bugs. Sounds like a mouse being clicked from inside the dash on the drivers side. I am gonna make an appt tomorrow and take the TSB printout with me.

 

Mine just started doing it this week. Very annoying, especially since my dealer is over 100 miles away. The description for others that think they may have this problem is as others stated..... comes from the lower driver dash side. Sounds like someone clicking a mouse with increasing speed as your RPM's increase or another person said it sounded like an ignitor for a gas stove (how they click before the flame starts). Hopefully it shouldn't hurt the car to drive it in this condition Has everyone who's taken their car in for this problem gotten it resolved with the backflush?

 

^^shumby has??I just wonder if this problem will happend again when the cars not under warranty?? and if id does damage not getting repaired right away??

 

This freaking noise drives me crazy. Very annoying sound. My appointment is Tuesday but I am in lowel mass now, I think i will take it to a local dealer because I can't drive back with that freaking noise.

 

It could be the oil that you guys are using. I've been doing alot of research on what oils to use for the 37 and ive discovered that people found a clicking noise or "tapping" noise if you wanna call it that because they havent been using the recommended oils. Synthetic motor oils that are ESTER based is what infiniti recommends (many ppl do not know about this) to keep the motor in its best shape. In a nutshell this ester basically causes less engine wear between metal parts and provides quicker revs.

 

Hey guys i had the same problem, the popping sound near the windshield so took it to infiniti and they replace the whole windshield also the sound stop

 

I was wondering if anyone has done this? I'm planing to do Back-Flush myself and need to figure out how to connect garden hose to inlet and outlet hoses. I was thinking to use one of the garden hose adapters to minimize the mess, something like this

Watts 5/8 in. x 3/4 in. Plastic Barb x Garden Hose Coupling-A-484 at The Home Depot

 

Thanks for posting so large. We may need OR forgot our reading glasses

 

Running Red Line 5w30(ester full-syn) for approx 300mi engine still has slight diesel ticking sound coming from VVEL so it did quiet down but not stopping it in my case. I have noticed the VQ37HR runs abit "stronger" compared the previously used M1 oil.
