My 370z engine bites the dust

If you don't have one already, insist that they give you an extended warranty since you are nervous about the engine swap. They might go for it.

Jokes!
PS: I also have little faith with Nissan techs from personal experience.
I have plenty of Audi buddies and they generally think Audi Techs suck too, but they have a LOT more experience with them than the average Nissan customer ever will with a Nissan tech......

Nissan to get it checked out and Nissan said my car car didnt have enough oil. Nissan drained all the oil out the engine and little metal flakes was in the pan. Nissan came to a conclusion and said my engine was burning oil to fast which made the engine overheated and said thats what damage the engine. They had to replace the whole engine. I only had 2100 miles! Have happen to anyone?
i had the same exact problem nissan replaced my engine but it took them way over the estimated wait good luck

Stay on topic!

Audi tends to over engineer their cars so there is more to break!! (No Arguement) But people love the way drive, look and feel!!
BTW, the first generation TT is a VW, not an Audi! Ask any Audi Technician. I tell my wife that and she gets mad. (but I love VW also)

I had an experience at the Nissan dealer where I bought my car which was negative. Fundamental stupidity that would never be allowed where I work is all!!!!!!
Makes me nervous about ever getting a warranty repair there.

Does anyone else want to express their hurt feelings here! It won't change what hapened to me.

Now let's continue with our regularly scheduled program!!
