So I have a 2014 Touring Coupe Sport. 24890 miles. Just bought and it isn't thrashed. My other posts on here paint the picture of how truly awesome this car was for 2 weeks before the oil change. I still have a factory warranty on it and it's currently in the dealership 3rd time and they have no clue why its throwing oil pressure SES and Limp Mode repeatedly.
The sequence of events leading up to this:
Bought car on July 16th and it ran beautifully for 9 days. It sat for 6 more. On the 15th day I had the oil changed. As soon as I went to leave the lube shop it bogged and choked and gave SES light and wouldn't throttle past 2500 RPM.
Dealership got car following day. They finally said I had 2 sheets of error codes and it keeps staying on low oil pressure. Nissan changed the oil and filter and swears that it was fixed. They tell me that the Lube shop might have turned it on while still low or empty - which I can assure was not the case as I was standing right there the whole time it was getting the change. I get in car after they fixed it and immediately get another SES light and a flickering brake light and the car won't throttle again past 2500rpm. Right back to the service drive.
I have read and read through this forum and from what I can tell - one of the codes was cam shaft sensors. Oil pressure sensor. MAF malfunction and the throttle body sensors are throwing it to wide open and not following pedal depressions.
Oil is definitely 5w30 full synthetic. NO ADDATIVES!!
Only other oddball thing is we had the bulbs in vehicle changed to LED - but there were resistors put on to stop fast blink.
Can anyone tell me what to tell these idiots what to look into???? They keep saying they reset it and car is fine. Today the car bogged choked again and is on yet a new SES light and low oil pressure code. They said this last visit they changed sensor. I didn't get 1 block from dealership and BANG!!!! Third time it has failed!!!!

MAF's are clean and clear and not coding.
The CAM sensors are clean and not coding.
Only the low oil pressure SES is back and yet no throttle past 2500RPM and the brake light is flickering.
The exhaust smells like fart and the cat O2's aren't throwing codes.

They keep resetting and telling me they can't find what's causing this.
Is there a possible blockage in the oil system or the cooler and it is seeing an intermittent period of low oil?? Are they chasing a ghost and the problem is on one of the 4 cam sensors?? Are the Throttle bodies the issue like I read on another post??

Please respond with any questions or thoughts so I can fully tell these goobers what to look into based on other 370Z driver's experiences.......
