To sum this up pretty much my 6mt 03 coupe burned 5 quarts of oil in about 3800 miles and now my engine is a knocking. I knew this car burned alot of oil but never like this.

The problem is my powertrain warranty ended a about 4 months ago and the mileage is at 73k. I have changed my oil every 3500 - 4000 miles and oil has always been low. The dealer even said that was normal and now I am screwed.

Does anyone have any advice, for the past year I have been driving my car maybe once a week and I never thought this was possible, I should of known better.

So now, even the 03 are burning oil? Nice.

 

I forgot to say I need a new engine now and the powertrain warranty is passed by three months.

 

I guess you could buy an extended warranty from Infiniti for 12 months. Then take your car in to be fixed in a couple weeks. My coupe doesn't use a drop of oil between changes, no cars should. Our members need to be smarter than this and quit listening to dealership personnel that either don't know **** or are dishonest. If I was using a quart every 1K miles I'd be taking the OC test....

 

who cares man time for RB swap

 

PM sent.....and if you can somehow buy an extended warranty thats definitely the best way to go

 

can u buy extended warranty AFTER ur warranty expired?!?

 

Hi there, last year I had this same issue, MY car is a 03 and had 67,000 miles at the time. Infiniti granted the warranty and a new replacement engine was issued (no loaner thou) thank GOD I had a spare car I could use cause the job took nearly a month. Infiniti service in PR is AWFUL i will never buy an infiniti again here mainly cause of the very bad review I have about them. In the states thou that's a different story.

 

i burned 1 quart in 400 miles (PHX to LA) during my OC test. I was in 4th and 5th gear the whole way...it was a fun drive

Got my new long block a week later.
