Thank you all for the advice. I like the entire crate engine idea best, even though Nissan wants to try a short block solution instead. But they have not internally inspected the parts. Hence, my gut tells me replacing the entire engine makes more sense. You guys seem to be suggesting that as well. Can somebody please coach me on how to convince the service manager to replace the entire engine. I sense they are reluctant to do this. Advice?
