Why did you add two bottles of oil? Was the oil level really low by two quarts?

Well, yes. I don't know if it's my driving style, (I am not saying that I push very hard all the time, it's just that I rev a lot, even at low speeds).

In my 350z, it was the same case. I need to add about one bottle of oil every month. I did question this at the dealership for my 350z and they tested my car and said it was within normal specs. I assume it's the same for the 370z.

When the oil level hits the lower limit on the gauge, you can easly add two bottle to bring it back at the top limit level. (confirmed today by checking)
