My suggestion is to make sure that you print a copy of the oil consumption thread that documents the whole writeup. Like Pete said, check on G37.com to see if anyone on there has had any issues with this as well and lastly, if you have any aftermarket parts on your G now, take them off and return all OEM parts back on that could give them fuel to say that it could be the cause of that aftermarket part which is adding to your problem.
This is the first i have heard that a G37 having oil consumption problems but of course, i have a '07 G35 coupe, so i normally would not check into it. Where did you purchase your G from? I would say that if it was from Pearson Infiniti, then talk to the mechanic up there name, Pete Russin. He would be very helpful in this case, as he is a very knowledgeable and mod friendly mechanic to deal with. Good luck and keep us in tune to this situation.

You know what don't worry about it just take the headlights off and I'll meet you somewhere and I'll give you your other set back. I took time out of my day TWICE to help you out with them and you didn't even consider trying to pay me until I had to push the subject like now. You forget the idea that you decided to leave the caps to the clearance LED's off while it rained for 2 days straight. So stop trying to put it all on my if you had a problem with them at the start all you would of had to do was say something and I would of took them off and tossed them right back into the oven for a few more minutes and it would of fixed your problem.

So just take them off and I'll give you your OEM lights back.

dont take it the wrong way Tim..i appreciate you helping me but my headlights were working after I called you that one night and told you they just started working strangely. Then it rains hard over night on day and they dont work again...I can only guess that they arent sealed tightly. I wanted to pay you but not working many hours and having obligations that can effect my credit but more importantly my future are just more important to me and have more of a priority.

Im sorry this situation went sour but im not trying to start an arguement.

Thats fine just take them off and I'll meet you somewhere with your OEM lights and we can trade them back and forget this ever happened. Just a little upset that you went outside of our network to sell something before asking one of your own guys it they wanted it. It would of saved you money selling local instead of driving to Springfield. Was going to even just call it even after the test pipes so you didn't have to fork out $50 more that I knew you were tight on. Just some things to take into consideration for the future.
