thats more along what i run. i have gotten up around 235 in the summer. at HPT i saw 255 . oil coolers are a necessary part on these cars

agreed. have seen a couple people get it to come lose by tapping it a few times. if it does, keep the car on and pull that fuse ASAP!

its covered by warranty, the issue is getting it to the dealership.

I beat on it with a hammer for a while last night with no luck.

Right now its stuck in the bottom floor of a parking garage with a tiny roof clearance so it cant be towed out.

Only way out is a back exit gate which is blocked by a massive pile of snow. Trying to get something out there to clear the snow right now.

This sucks.

Here is what I saw. I believe the poster is a Nissan Dealer in St. Louis.

Wow that does suck. Well I guess there is a bright side of it...it's covered under the warranty.

update: The properties folks said they would have the snow cleared out by 2pm and I have a tow truck that should be showing up at 2.

Now just have to make a few small turns with the steering locked...

Good news.

After the crazy circus of getting it out of the garage and on the tow truck...

Got to the dealer and they agreed it was the steering lock, then had it replaced in about 20 mins.

Randy Reed nissan up north at 152 and 29 has a pile of new locks in stock in case anyone else is looking to get their's fixed.
