You don't need a alignment.

I know their's a TSB on this for ealier 350Z's for same clicking, does Infiniti have a TSB out on the G35? I have have had the clicking pretty bad for a while now.

There is a rebuild kit the dealer will install....I had it done 32.5k miles no questions asked....told them about clicking, called me later that day and said they had to order the kit, so you probably can't wait while they do it unless you bring it back when the parts get there, but even then it would probably take several hours...mine took 3 days including ordering/receiving parts, but I had it there for several more warranty items....not sure if there's a TSB, but they'll fix it under warranty....and yeah, no alignment necessary.....problem solved, no complaints....

Since I only had 5K of mileage on my car, the dealer installed a whole new rear.

Had the rear axle on my G lubricated. No need for a replacement.
