370Z oil consumption

awesomez · 08-12-2009, 12:23 PM

I must say that too many of Z owners seem to blow things out of proportion. I am at 7500 miles with my 370Z, daily driver from early April and I haven't had a single issue. I even drove it on 900 mile trip without stopping to Miami without any issues. 110 degree heat 100% humidity in south florida and my oil temperature never reached 230 degrees (I was driving normally). I have the dealer change my oil at 3000 miles, and if I am to exceed I stop driving the car until it's changed. I use synthetic oil and never had to refill.
My only real complaint is that those wide rear tires with sport package create way too much road noise for long trips.

I have never had oil or any other issues, other then passenger window motor needed to be replaced on my 350Z as well.
