Not the dealership's fault. All Nissan.

They meant warranty affecting the engine.

Not true, there are plenty of dealerships who have installed oil coolers and kept all the warranty.

They can say what they want, but when they call Nissan to authorize the free installation of a free motor to a customer because a rock hit the cooler or a fitting leaked and the engine ran dry, it's a whole 'nother ball game.

That would be a mighty rock indeed. I think it all comes down to the individual. You pays your money and you takes yer chances. I personally don't track my car so I don't see the need for an oil cooler and I'm no saint on the road neither.

That pegged my meter! Nissan has made a statement on oil coolers (posted here numerous times) , and that is not true..Maybe they know more than your dealer? Hmmmm...

An oil cooler failure that destroys your engine is pretty much the only time Nissan is going to void your engine warranty.
