And the only manufacturer that puts an engine on a dyno at the factory is Porsche. All oil is drained from the engine on the test bench at the factory, after the initial test run. In the case of Nissan for the VQ, it is then refilled with Nissan Ester Oil. Why? Because this engine runs hot, period.
That's for sure, including This response.

Many manufacturers have a chassis dyno at the end of the assembly line where the car is run up through the gears and RPM's under load. It's part of the Quality Control procedure.
ALL Motorcycle assembly plants do for sure.

As far as a factory fill with Esther oil, no one has EVER confirmed this...Lotta gum flapping, no evidence..If you have some post it up!
