Thanks man! The corporate rep who will either authorize the replacement or beat around the bush, is supposed to call me tomorrow! I'll fill you all in soon!

Default 370z needs new engine...

So I just finished speaking with the corporate rep. He explained to me that the 'buy back review policy' was now in effect. By then it will mark A MONTH without my vehicle. Neat.

Let's hope so! If a new Z is at the end of this ride, you'll be the first to know.

Either way, it was not your fault what occured. So whatever happens make sure you dont go out of pocket - being new car / exchange or trade in for another etc.

Do you have any enemies at work? Sounds like someone drained your oil neatly and put the drain plug back on. Thats my theory anyways

Camera's at work???

LOL, that is one hell of a theory. Especially, how low a Z is and how many screws it takes to remove under pan.

Haha well there's a unsettling theory! Although I'm sure I've rubbed some people the wrong way at SOME point in my life- I cannot think of anyone as of late that would have a reason to do this.

I agree, but thats seems likely if they cant find a leak or oil in the exhaust. Bone dry tells me someone removed it

How far away do you live from work? Is the car garaged?

The crumbiest part about this whole situation is that today is my bday (currently posting from iPhone at my own 25th bday party) and I just received z1 MAF tubes / KN drop ins and Swift springs. :/ I don't even have a car to put Em on at the moment.
