Another problem with my 370Z

plumber78 · 06-24-2011, 06:30 AM

Update: I spoke to the dealership yesterday and they said they tested for compression and all cylinders had low compression. They took the cats off and they claim that one of them disintegrated and got sucked into the engine. They have reported their findings to Nissan and are awaiting a reply back, but they expect to be told to replace the engine. Yesterday, I didn't really think about it, but how does something get sucked backwards through the exhaust? I just hope that they are correct and Nissan indeed replaces the motor. I have been told that after they get the go ahead from Nissan it should only be a couple of weeks until I get my car back. If that is the case, I will be happy.
