What is TSB? Cuz I just started hearing a clicking from the rear when I accelerate? Also, will the dealer fix this even if the car is lowered?

Thanks

How long does it take for the axles to start clicking, if they are going to click?

What has to be done to fix it?

I found a more complete version of the TSB. It explains what goes wrong and how to fix it.

http://www.infinitihelp.com/Ownershi.../ITB05-002.htm

Still wondering how long it usually takes for the clicking to start.

I've had my flex on for a year. It didn't start creaking till I had to leave the car with infiniti over a weekend. The rear seat back pad makes some rattling and creaking noise too.

I have to revive this thread since I'm getting the same noise like you guys have. I've had my hotchkis sways for almost 15K miles. My car has 23K miles now and it started to make the creaking noise in the front/rear suspension area around 22K miles. Did anyone figure out the root cause?

Just got and installed the Tein Comfort Sports Yesterday.. my car is having the same problem i suppose..

Sounds like a loose washer.. i looked and it seems the washer that holds the rubber bushing at the top of the shock is rattling around..

Any one have answers on how to fix??? any help would be greatly appreciated..
