I had no issues with oil consumption though, but I guess I should track it myself instead of the dealer.
Once my TTs are installed and I get the car back, she will get 10W40 for a little better oil breakdown resistance. I am still debating the Setrab 34 Row or the massive AE Performance cooler though.

Any kind of oil cooler is a must in Texas during the Summer if you are a spirited driver like me. My temps are almost always around 240 and getting even more spirited on the highway I've seen upwards of 260-270. I just hate seeing it go that high which is why I'm going to buy a bang for the buck oil cooler.
Can someone please post this G37 forum link?
