Actually the A4 was nicer than the G loaner infiniti gave me.. Can't do donuts in fwd unless reverse so I didn't mess up their car lol.

I'll see if my friends shop can handle my car.. I need more work than oil consumption.. Rear axle click.. Weird grinding noise from the back..

IDK about 12 quarts but I have a bunch of empty oil carton things laying around my house that I used to top it off.. The first time I ever saw my oil light come on was about 6 months ago.. Dissapeared for 3 months and now its coming on a lot more constantly than before.

I've also noticed either I raced a super stock G or my performance is down.. We were about even, once we hit 80 he was just gone and left me in the dust, I have mods and he's stock! his was 03 auto aswell as mine.

Good luck with the fixes.

My infiniti dealer is generous, they offered me an M or FX when I was there getting the dents they said they would pull (but forgot) I took the M 4.5L FTW.

Wow, nice one.. First time they gave me a nasty 05 sedan.. Smelled like mcdonalds/fast food.. Dents, dings, and scratches all over... They had me use their wallet key to use the for the car.. Nothing close to how nice my G was, pissed me off so I did 1 burnout in it.

My dealer has only offered the G35 as a loaner. I guess that is the down side of driving the low end Infiniti, you get the same car as a loaner.

An even more down side would be if I took in an M. I would be getting the low end G. But at least it would be a "different" car.

I wish you could get a choice, so the loaner could be like an extended test drive without the pressure of talking to a saleman. I could get the manual, to see how I like it. A day of driving isn't a year, but still...
