I am sure it was closed because some members on here cannot control themselves.

Very sorry to hear about what happened to your car man! I hope everything works out!!!

Pretty sure this is self-explanatory.

This new thread is starting off well :ugh2:

Where did you get the oil changed? They may have forgot to put oil in the car...

You can't drive for 3 months without oil. After the first thread, we've concluded that this is just a dawg-awn mechanical mystery...shucks.

i got it changed at a very well known carwash in the area. i have been using them forever .this is not likely if they forgot to put oil in the car it would have been friedd the next day not 3 months later.

Haha thanks spearfish25. I didn't read through the other thread.

I was just putting that out there because I have seen that happen before.

mechanical mystery indeed :/

You know, I was going to give this guy another chance - maybe I'd have some insight as to why his engine failed as such. Who knows.

But after reading that first post, which is nothing short of a giant, misspelled, unpunctuated run-on sentence, I realize it's hopeless. I got a headache just looking at that first block of text.

The 370Z does not have "major oil problems." A handful of people on here have reported an oil burning issue during the initial break-in of their engine. A few have needed full engine replacements due to excessive oil consumption past break-in. Both are normal in any given population of cars. The oil cooler problem applies only to those who beat on their Z's on the street, and those who auto-x or circuit race.

Good luck with getting that fixed under warranty or covered otherwise. Really, I'm not being sarcastic. But if you really need advice, I would consult a trusted personal mechanic and a lawyer. Most of us here cannot even understand what you're typing.

DakillaZ 07-01-2010 08:36 PM

even with the engine knocking there is still no check engine light which i cant still understand.. nd if the oil was low what happend to the check oil light thats BIG cpu failure. i knw that most of you are gunna blame me for not cheaking the dip stick but my car was running great before all this happend it didnt even cross my mind :/

Sibze 07-01-2010 08:39 PM

If Nissan wasn't changing the oil and they have already said it was not a Nissan problem I am afraid what WarmAndSCSI is saying is true (the part about seeing a Lawyer). However, I don't think your going to have a leg to stand on. The only way you may get some of this covered is to go after the place that was changing the oil....

Good luck and let us know what ends up happening!
