My car doesn't seem to get over 220 even with spirited driving. It's about 75 degrees out here, guess I got lucky.

Our cars come with a 50/50 mix so they aren't as efficient as they could be. Improving the thermal conductivity of the coolant by altering the ratio should have a definite improvement on the ability for the coolant to absorb heat from the oil, hence lowering oil temperatures. It's not enough for the track but it might be enough for the SoCal people to survive summer. |

I don't want to rain on the parade, but I do want to offer a warning. Nissan has an ever increasing rate of warranty denials. I don't think it is outside the realm of possibility that Nissan would deny a warranty claim, for drivetrain components, if the coolant mixture had been altered. I'm not saying it will happen, or is happening, just that it might happen.

This PDF from Redline Water Wetter Tech Info gives their full technical spiel on why this stuff works. It makes a lot of sense, and a lot of people swear by it. |

I e-mailed Nissan this week about the oil overheating issue and they replied with the same response that others have received:
"Thank you for contacting Nissan North America, Inc. and your interest in our 2009 370z. Thank you very much for your concern, this matter is currently under review at this time." |

Does the water get hot when the oil gets hot ?
If no, then water wetter is waste of time. |
