jsia, i hope it wasnt a hit and run.

Anyone on here(local) own a 2006 with no oil consumption? Also, does the majority of 06 have that problem or is this just blown out of proportion?

It seemed like a big issue but my '06 with 58k on it has no issue. I think FishBrownie has an 06 to with a boatload of miles on it and no probs.

Correct. I'm running around 61K with no issues. I always have dealer tell me how much they drained out when I get my oil changed. That way I can keep an eye out for abnormal consumption.

I have a copy of the Nissan Technical Bulletin (NTB-07-088) that describes the testing requirements/results for determining abnormal oil consumption if anyone wants it. PM your email address and I'll send it to you.

Don Davis Body Shop in Arlington does top-notch work. I had a nasty dent right on the rear fender line and they repaired it to mint condition..they also popped out a few dings for free.
