A TSB is like a Formal FYI to all the Dealerships. thanks to NissanHelp.com most of the TSBs we can actually look at. However they aren't intended for us to see. and also not intended for us to say I saw this TSB and want my vehicle looked at for it.

That Said I know I do it the same as you. I print out the TSB and take it to the Dealer. Dealers are real people running Real Businesses. Its like those annoying secretary types who send you like 200 FYI Emails a day. You don't have time to look at them all. The Same thing happens with the Service Department. The Mechanics are busy doing jobs all day. many of the Shops I have been to are production oriented, the mechanics don't have time to read all the TSBs...instead they are busy changing oil, and trying to make money so the service department can stay open.

What worries me is that you are leading the Tech with the TSB and it may have nothing to do with your particular condition. For Example: I work on Computers all day long. What I hate is when somebody shows me their problem. And I believe them as a credible source. Then I spend alot of time trying to fix the problem...where as If I just saw their problem and they didn't lead me, I would have fixed the problem in a 1/3rd of the time. You get there eventually but you waste a considerable time on the information which is really good information, it just doesn't apply to your situation. Ultimate we don't care because its a warranty deal and we aren't going to pay for it. But we do pay for it in Higher Initial vehicle costs.

I suppose I should say my Rear Leaf Springs squeak...then when they have it on the lift and call me...then I say oh yeah I saw a TSB #NT05-117 about squeaky leaf springs.
