Regardless of the TSB, engine oil consumption falls within the 5yr/60k mile warranty. They will do a consumption test (seal the dipstick, mark the oil fill cap, drain plug and filter) and replace the short block if it fails.

I had to deal with the same thing on my '06 350. Good times.

I'll be taking my car in this month sometime to get the test started.
Hello..newbie here(Mike). I thought that the factory warranty was 3 years or 30K Miles ? Is there an additonal Factory Warranty ?

My three year runs out soon. I did Buy a 7 year extended warranty, bumper to bumper..

I just never heard of 5 years. But I am the newbie.

Thanks for the info...A lot I need to learn about my 2009 370Z. Thanks
