I was unaware that when I bough my z used with 10k on it the motor was replaced less than 500 miles before I bought it, I learned this when I took it in for a OC complaint. Keep in mind I am a service advisor for Honda, so I know the guys there and most of the techs personally, one of their tech worked for us a one time, and is an old guy and knows his s*$t. He told me these VQs do not break in well on the the crap Ester oil or synthetics, he had me use regular dino oil for 2 oil changes, it drank 3 qts of Mobil 1 in 1800 miles, thus why I took it in. Now it may have used .5 qts in the last 3000k on Valvoline synthetic.
