Sorry you will be without your car for a while, hope the best for you.

Sorry to hear about your problem with the engine. I agree with 8 image GIF guy, I would ask nicely for a buy back / replacement since it's brand new. I check my oil about 1 time a week, the same time I check my clutch fluid for changes in color, crap content and change the clutch fluid if needed.

Thanks for the words of encouragement, guys. As frustrating as it is, do you think Nissan would actually agree to a replacement? I am upset that I've spent money on a vehicle, and even when they do replace the motor, it won't be 'truly factory built' anymore.
