need4speed I don't usually comment on troll posts but I think there is hope for you. You have had a few interesting points on some of your posts (if you can wade through the slaughtered English). Hopefully you'll work on whatever issues are plaguing you in your life now and you won't feel the need to lash out in an anonoymous way on an Internet forum. An appology would likely be a good way to keep from getting banned and hopefully you can work on being an asset to the forum.

let's implement a new law to start requiring middle school degrees upon registration for the interwebz forums. Who's with me here?

Can we stop the stupid bitching and get back on topic? This has the potential to be a good thread. It doesn't encourage the topic starter (who is new here) when his thread is wrecked by silly keyboard wars. Nissan engines have a history of oil consumption problems - this thread could monitor any potential issues with the VQ37.

Hoping the mods can clear up the "junk" in this thread.
I know for certain the VQ37 is loosing oil, not necessarily burning it, but def loosing...
All to familiar for me...

And you know this how? If an engine is losing oil and NOT burning it through the combustion chamber, it is leaking it. Fix the leak. Pretty simple. Not all of the tens of thousands of VQ37 motors are consuming oil.
