Not that this matters much, but Nissan has a history of excessive oil consumption even with the V-8's. I bought a new 2002 Infiniti Q45 and it sucked oil like crazy. Seems it turned out to be a common complaint. They finally replaced the engine at 28,000 miles and there was considerable improvement. But as mentioned by others, that is not a real great experience either...it took several trips to get everything sorted out. Fortunately, my 370Z does not seem to have a major oil issue. I've got the fingers crossed.:ugh2:

You know...tho......as long as there are no other serious problems associated with the excessive oil consumption.........I am not going to worry about it.........Just keep the oil level topped off.......an so what........it dosent really cost that much to buy oil.....

Do you have smog-check in TN? We are just afraid that oil might be clogging the cats and we would fail the test! I wouldn't even tell you how much 2 cats cost!!!! YIKES!

if everyone waited, then nobody in the past with the older VQ motors would have complained and a bulletin more than likely would not have been made up. Nissan has a history of oil consumption on these VQ engines, it's a fully legit concern IMO. If there was no track record, maybe not. It's not conjecture, and people with this issue should complain about it. If people do not complain, nothing ever gets fixed, how else would nissan know there's an issue to begin with? NO engine should consume that much oil during it's normal operation short of a rotary perhaps. Break in or no break in. The end. |

It's not acceptable at all. |

I think it's prudent to wait. That's what I plan to do. Now that the TSB's out, there's no reason not to. |
