The Ai tab on the camera mount is a fairly fragile part.
I just took mine apart to clean out some dirt that caused the tabe to stick in certain positions.
On my first D3 I had the Fee error. That turned out to be a problem with corrosion of a range of electronic contacts that registers the position of the Ai tab.
I returned the camera, which was bought used and displayed the problem right when I got it. Camera worked fine with G type lenses because those communicate the aperture information though the electronic contacts rather then through the Ai indexing tab.
To me the function of the Ai indexing tab is a vital function of the camera because I do not use any G-type lenses.
My advise, if I were in your shoes, I'd send in the camera to get it serviced. Since you're in the US someone like APS might be a good choice and cheaper then Nikons own repair service.
