Mine used 1 quart every 1500 miles. Went thru Nissan's oil consumption test program. Twice. Nissan agreed there was a problem and had the dealer replace the short block. I don't know if this corrected the oil consumption problem because I haven't been able to drive it regularly since the Service Engine Soon light keeps coming on. Since the short block was replaced, so have the rear oxygen sensor, the front oxygen sensor, an exhaust manifold gasket, and now, the catalytic converter. Each time the dealer has been following Nissan's direction. If this doesn't work, I'm pursuing the lemon law.

Looking back on this, I might have been better off adding a quart every 1500 miles.
