lately ive been hearing a scraping noise in the front of the car, mainly the left side, whenever i drive at low speeds. when im moving out of 1st, the scraping noise is kinda loud. then as i accelerate it disappears. when i come to a stop, i hear the sound again. it gets really loud when i come to a complete stop even in neutral as if my tire is scraping against the body or something. i checked underneath the car and found out that there was nothing. im guessing maybe my tranny is giving out on me? i hear a deep clunk when i engage the clutch in 2nd gear. it only happens when i press it hard and it's every once in a while. but besides that, does anyone have any idea what the first problem could be?

 

Mine sounds more like a rattle. Oh the joys of owning a G. Most of us experience these kinds of noises but according to Infiniti it's "normal." Just live with it. Turn up the music or get a loud exhaust. The sounds will always be a part of the G.

 

could be brake pads too or just a form of metal against metal in this car... check under the car... jack that sucka up! lol

 

i had a rattle in my car after i put my intake in but it ended up just being the engine conver rattling against the intake

 

tires maybe?!? my stock tires made a funky sound and i got me some Ps2's and its gone. haha or like the guy above me says, brake pads

 

mines making some weird sound like the belts are rubbing of somthing on low gears, mainly in first while im coasting.

any suggestion, or is that the similar noise that you guys are all talking about

 

Happens to me too don't know why

 

im gonna take it over to a shop later this week so i'll tell u if i find out what the problem is.
