:tup::iagree:

Upon morning inspection, the Acura is not near as bad as I expected. Definitely PDR worthy, which means the roof is probably ok as well. Already called insurance, and they will be sending out an adjuster to look at them later this week.

There were warnings? lol I had no idea :ugh2:

I just looked at the forecast, and there doesn't appear to be any more intense weather projected. Safe to drive the Z today I hope since it's time to go to work...

Thanks y'all :tiphat:

Yeah, YNN was talking about it all day. I just woke up, still feel like crap, going to check on the 350 on my way in.

Isn't that a TW channel? I'm not sure I get it on DirecTV. Either way, we haven't been watching TV hardly at all lately...

:tup: Wrapping the Z as a Christmas present so you can open it a few months later... I like it. Did you use one of those huge bows like in the Lexus commercials around Christmas time? :icon17:

Didn't see any obvious dents on the 350. Was in a hurry though. Meh.

Mu, here's a link to a Rev D ESCL failing. IIRC this forum member had a Rev B fail, and replaced with Rev D under warranty. The Rev D then failed as well :ugh2: I still maintain this TSB (or recall or whatever the fvck they're calling it) is a half-a$$ed solution by Nissan :shakes head:

Been lurking here for a while but got my Z on Jan 1. Did my first oil change on Sunday from factory to Mobil 1 5w-20 at 3500 miles (late, I know..). Planning on doing a homebrew oil cooler and DIY similar to ModShack but with braided lines, but have noticed a sharp, consistent rise in my oil temp since the change.

Before the change I would run at 200F all day, maybe up to 210-215 when pushing it hard. Now on the full synthetic I'm consistently running around 210, getting up to 220-225 under higher revs.

I'm not super concerned since I plan on adding a cooler in the next month or so but wanted to make sure I'm not missing something major here - or if any of you have experience with this after the first change.

Oil levels are good, haven't seen or smelled any burn-off, everything else seems to be copacetic - any ideas/advice or am I just being overbearing?

:confused:

me too :confused: You are waaaay too on topic for me! :p ;)
