they also told me it was normal for a 350z to burn a qt of oil every 1k miles. if thats true, then if you change your oil every 3k miles you would only have 2 qts in there.

The dealerships in this area suck for the most part. I have an 04, and it burned oil like crazy, on Royal Purple synthetic with Nissan doing the oil changes. When I complained of low oil pressure, and told them my oil light was coming on, the response from the tech was, could not duplicate, and of course that was after they changed my oil. I switched to Amsoil, and have had no problems.

mobil 1 burned in my car too..

and that 1 qt every 1K miles is BS. If you have to get service or need parts, go to Ray Brandt Nissan. Ask for Scott, he's the service manager, cool guy.

I've been using Giles here in Lafayette and haven't had a problem with them yet.
Though I never owned the car when it was under warranty and never let them do any work on my car.
I only order parts through them, but they have yet to screw that up.

Also, my neighbor works as a tech there =P
