Really depends on your budget and whether this is your daily driver or not. If I had another daily I would had moved forward with rebuilding my blown motor better than before but financially I was not ready and with my car being my daily, it was my reason to just say screw it drop a used motor in and get me back on the road asap!

I would still fight this though or at least have Nissan meet you partial of the way to pay for a new engine. Worst they can say is NO! Worth a shot. If you buy a used motor and swap it out you can always keep the blown one to rebuild like I am doing plus no down time since you will still have your car while the other engine is getting built.

I found it cheapest to just have my dealer find me a used motor and drop it in. Pricey! but quick and painless and got me back on the road enjoying my car again
