370Z - Oil Consumption TSB

cosmicdust73 · 08-29-2012, 12:41 PM

I would also like to know if steps have been taken to address the issue. With a new 2013 arriving possibly this week, I'm still a bit nervous about dealing with this issue again in the future. I know the 2009/2010 have the TSB... but I'm almost positive that I have read threads on this forum from owners of a 2011 that still had the problem. I wonder if it has anything to do with oil temperature. Do you think the 2012/2013 oil cooler helps at all? I only started to have this problem during the summer of 2012, which coincidentally was one of the hottest in recent memory in the northeast. I'm talking 100 degrees plus... causing oil temps to approach 250 degrees or higher during spirited driving.
