My audio installers forgot to replace a grommet in the firewall. Rain water ran down the windshield and into that whole. The water ran down my floor pan and "settled" into the area behind my seat. It soaked the carpet before draining out. That wet carpet had retained enough moisture to cause the condensation when parked outside overnight.

My repair shop found the problem, and I took it back to the audio installers to fix it. They filled the hole back up (either with a grommet or with some sort of silicone, not sure).

It happened again 2 days ago, but it may have been left over moisture underneath my floor mat.

Sorry for the derail!

I tried to follow guide lines for about a week. I drive it like I stole it and want to keep it. Meaning I dont kill it but Im not affraid to drive it. Check oil regularly and it hasnt burned a drop. Gonna change the oil for the first time at 2500 miles. The funny part is that the oil still looks very clean (not burnt). Upon buying the car I did put a filter magnet on, which I dont know if that helps but I know it sure cant hurt. Good luck with your car, Nissans can take a beating. I would not hesitate to enjoy the car and its capabilites.
