Everyone with oil temp issues

joeyz10 · 03-31-2009, 12:51 AM

Hey Mu, okay i read the car and driver that you posted. Thanks. But does this mean if we will complain to Nissan we have to pay them 500 dollars for the oil cooler? and another 500 for the differential cooler if we want? This should be free because why would Nissan produce a car that a oil temp would go up?

Exactly, and why wasnt it an option from factory? Why sell a sports package with out it?

If we woulve had the chance to add it as an option when we pay $30k + for this "sports car", then nobody should be crying about it. But since it wasnt offered, that tells the costumer that this car doesnt need an oil cooler if your driving it like it was invented for, no one here is running a 24 hours of le mans in a stock 370Z.

i can already see something happening but not til summer when the westcoast peeps see ~300 on their gauge sitting in 100+ degree traffic on the 405 fwy with ac on full blast. Nissan will for sure do something given that 1. there WILL be a huge concentration of Zs in Socal, 2. they know news travel FAST especially when so many people are affected by it. Until then, i dont think nissan takes it very seriously.

They should ante up the parts and put them on under warranty. Once the car is warmed up the fluctuation in oil temps should be minimal. It's unacceptable and we will not stand for it! I really appreciate all of the forum support. It takes more then one person to make a change, especially since the car has just come out they need to know there's a problem.

If the car got really hot after 30 minutes on the track I'd be ok wit that, but after 5 laps which is about 10 miles? What was the point of the synchro rev matching also if they didn't want to stand out as sports car? It helps you to drive harder! Anyway back on subject.....

Scan your repair order and post it up. I want to see the part number for the new engine.

So, you're saying Nissan installed a different engine other than the 3.7L in your 370Z? Perhaps it's the Twin Turbo GTR engine? or does the engine look like this?

The 370z comes standard with an oil cooler. Which can be upgraded easily with a stillen oil cooler that replaces the existing cooler and will reduce the avg oil temp. Using a good oil like Ams or Redline will also reduce the avg oil temps. I use Ams oil and I have seen I avg 180 and never exceed 220. And trust me I dont baby the car.

Incorrect information! 370z doesn't come equipped with oil cooler. It's NOT needed if you don't track your car. When I say track, I mean long road courses. You do not need this cooler for Autox or drag racing. With a good synthetic oil (i.e. Redline), for everyday driving, you should have 0 issues.
