Still waiting to hear back from Nissan what the offical word is.... so till then

I was told the block holds 6 qts, mine was down 4, so 2 left. Nissan told me that after the cam sensor was replaced the engine testing shown no harm to the motor, but they could be telling stories here.

GL dealing with Nissan Consumer Affairs, most of em aren't to bright and it takes them 3 days to get back to you. Worst customer service in my opinion, but they did make a car payment while my car was in the shop for those 4 weeks.

My car seems to be running fine now, I did drop another 2 qts in last week, and I am up to 5k miles now. I'd like to get it on a dyno just to see where the power is at.......

Sorry about your issues, standby for some pain buddy......
