How many are old enough to remember when kids took clothespins and attached playing cards to their bicycle spokes? Well, that's kind of like the noise I'm getting from the front of my 2003 G35. It's only audible at low speeds, and it definitely slows down as I come to a stop. I had my mechanic take a ride and listen, and he didn't know the cause without putting it on the rack. But he said it didn't sound like anything that would be a safety hazard.

Any ideas out there? It's great to become a member of this forum -- I'm a big G35 fan (bought this car used in 2006 and it has served me well) :)

So why didn't he and spin each wheel one at a time?
