Sorry to say but I have an 03, and have already had a new full long block installed. However, I am still burning about 1 quart every 1,200 miles. Take it too the dealer and get an oil consumption test.

 

How much oil is it burning and how many kms on it?

 

Is it burning or leaking? Isn't a leak around the valve cover on one side quite a command problem

 

i have an 06 350 on lease and i am burning oil too and the dealer told nissan warranty but they said they are looking in to it.....i waited 6 weeks and then called nissan canada and gave them **** like my engine might seize with out oil and cause an accident......3 hours later i got a call back saying there are 2 new engines on the way from japan and iam getting one of them this week......call them and ask for a new engine.......good luck!!

 

What bothers me is the fact that Nissan is ordering new engines for those people who are going threw this oil comsuption issue. The price of a new motor isnt cheep by any means, witch tells me this issue is larger then a simple external leak or valve seals etc, etc. im very interested in nowing what the deal is with this? this a design flaw or just a bad example of quality control?

 

what's up guys ....well i'm currently doing the oil consumption tests ...i've already called nissan canada...and they told me to go to a dealer...so we'll see what happens....

 

^^ if they're giving away free motors, let me know .. i need a new motor too

 

^just get a built block and up your "stock" car boost :P
