I never really cared about my 370z. What I do miss, is my old police cruiser junker that my grandpa and I built in the driveway. Both he and that car are long gone, and I miss them both, but I could...

That V6 has been around for a long time and is a good one. I have no issues with a smaller turbo engine. I used to would maybe, but they've just done so well for me by now. If the performance isn't a...

I considered an MDX but just didn't like the 3rd row. I don't need it. I ended up going with a 2022 RDX ASpec Advance and absolutely love it. The MDX is like a bigger RDX, but with a V6 instead of a...

7AT reliability

How reliable are these as you get up in miles? Are they known for any specific issues? How often should you drain/fill them, assuming not tracking the vehicle?

My 370Z (a 2012) was always like this, and would grind on the 1-2 shift when it was humid out. These things just have gritty gearboxes, IMO. part of the reason I sold it.

VQ37 catalytic converter ceramic dust toasting an engine?

Is this a carry-over myth from other Nissan engines? I'm doing some deep dive research into the QX50 before buying one, and am curious if the catalytic converter can actually toast an engine?
