Well I got my buddy to rev it up while I stood behind it and when it revs I detected a faint whisp of white smoke.. kinda how it first started. Could definitely smell it as well. Motor is making all kinds of vavle noise as well.. .

I'm going to try that headgasket kit. If it is blown at this point anythign other than a brand new factory motor dropped into my car within the week is unacceptable. I called the stealership and they got in an argument with me and the service dude even went so far as to suggest it was my driving that caused this. Since I got the car back it hasn't even seen more than 5000 rpms.

What really gets me is I told the shop over and over that this was my concern and that they had done nothing to address root cause of failure. They assured me they examined 'everything' and it would not fail again. how could nissan possibly be this incompetent? How could they do a shoddy patch repair job on a brand new car that costs over 30k? Its clear to me as day now why Nissan has not been performing as well in the last few years.
