Either way though, I wouldn't think 1.5 qts low you'd see the engine die or a timing chain snap. Something else may be going on as well.

Hmmm.... I asked the Tech if this was a common problem with the Z, and he told me it was the first he'd ever seen. I should have asked him how long he's been with Nissan.
I'm ok with them making the swap, its not costing me a penny, but I'm concerned that I may have the same trouble in the future.......
On a side note, does anyone know if this will extend my warranty as well??
