G35 Compression Rods are Total Crap
#271
And find a shop with a press to have the old ones pressed out and new ones pressed in...
I don’t know where you are located - but in the OC/LA area of So Cal, Temple City Auto does them for $35 (each side) including removal and reinstall.

thanks for your reply, located in ontario canada, however that gives me an idea the cost to have the bushing removed and replaced. Have already contacted riverside who will ship to canada since no one here wants to do anything other than replace the complete compression rod.
thanks
thanks

Anyone else hear this noise? I would want to replace the whole compression rod because I want to replace the ball joint end as well. The TSB does not interest me, but if it is something else besides the compression rod I would rather find the issue than pay for the compression rods.

Thanks for the reply! The noise is more dramatic after replacing the shock. It's almost like the strut is loose and moves when hitting bumps or some dips in the road. It's a loud rumbling type noise and possibly felt through the steering wheel. It's almost embarrassing to drive the car because of the noise heard in the cabin.

btw, for the compression rod, you dont have to buy the entire rod... Riverside Infiniti sells compression rod bushings for $20 - find a shop with a press and have them pressed in.
