Will a Nissan dealer be able to tell if I have used F.I in my car?

It wouldn't take much of a detective to figure out that something major had been done to the engine. With a little looking around for scratches on fenders/firewall and other

It wouldn't take much of a detective to figure out that something major had been done to the engine. With a little looking around for scratches on fenders/firewall and other accidental damage, a good mechanic could probably make a good guess as to what was done. But, as Plasmite said, most dealers/mechanics aren't going to look that close and probably don't care if they do notice - unless the damage is consistent with abuse or modifying. Ie, if you go in for routine maintenance or a minor repair, it shouldn't be a problem. If you have bent rods, they're probably gonna notice.
DEpointfive0 and Plasmite like this.
