Just purchase my Nismo 3 weeks ago and oil was in the half mark of cross hatch. Saw the Tsb and check my oil and barely register on the dipstick. I've gone about 500 miles since I bought it.
Takin it in to the same dealer you are.
Thanx for the info. nice to see that a dealer will look past ur Bolton mods.
Which service advisor were u dealing with?
Hope my transaction goes as smooth.

The engine will consume oil during break-in. If your car new, I would suggest waiting until the initial break in period is over before taking it to the dealership. (If it were me I wouldn't worry until approx 4-5k miles+)
