Yeah, it's called GO TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP! Or better yet, go to a well known and knowledgeable mechanic. Highly doubt it's an oil issue or that you need a new engine.


And on that note, another reason why I chose the base model Z. None of that that techno-crap to go wrong.

First, go to another mechanic. A reputable one not employed by Nissan.

If in fact the engine is shot, you can get a used one online for about $2,500, but that doesn't include the labor to install it. A brand new one from Nissan will be a lot more.
