I'm still waiting for my engine.

thats f*ed up for real

Got the letter today from the Parts Dept with big red words:

"Your Parts have arrived and ready for pickup." I kinda smiled.

Anyway, if you could just look at my new thread, I would appreciate it.

A/T w/Sport, 1700 miles, no oil change yet, level in center of dipstick, no change from day one.

I own an '04.5 Touring Coupe and, after owning her for a year and ten months, I've only had to top it off twice between changes, which I do annually, since I only put anywhere from 6,000 to 7,500k on her per year. Greetings!

Good luck Man! I have my new engine and it looks brand new.

Before going to the dealer, you should probably take out your cooler to eliminate any issues with Nissan. I never had one so less complicated for me.

Do check your oil. I was down 3/4 quarts at 485 miles when I first added oil. At 2500 miles, 4 quarts have been added, and scheduled for a new short block.
