I noticed some funny noises and shakes that TL-S makes.
Here are some of them:
In the morning when car is a little cold when I back out of the parking spot there is some farting/burping noise coming from somewhere. It's about 1/2 second long, but it seems weird.
I posted this problem before:
When I put the car in park and sit there for a minute, you can feel like engine RPMs are changing (500 up/down), but tachometer stays at one level.
I'm show this to the dealer when my underbody kit will come in, and see what he'll say.
Let me know if you experienced anything like this.

Yeah, I posted that "farting" noise before.
It only happens when you back up the car.
Usually it happens after the car sits there for at least a few minutes.
I described it as a noise between rubbing and grinding. Farting is actually kinda close too. It is fairly loud (can be heard through the music) and it definitely isn't the mirror.
It may have something to do with parts of the brak assembly.
Please let us/me know if you find out anything from the service.

I think I can say with almost certainty that it's your ABS motor/pump/something spinning up or building pressure. Don't know how it works in our TL-S's, but my 95' Maxima did this all the time too, except, instead of the "fart" (I hear it too, so it's normal), it was a somewhat loud *click* you could hear and feel in the pedals and steering. Don't think it's anything to worry about.

On a serious note, I haven't experienced that one...yet! Keep us posted on what happens.
