Well, they replaced the engine...

About a month ago, with around 18k miles. Nissan replaced the engine on my titan. It was burning oil at an amazing rate. (6 quarts in 3 days) and they blamed it on my driving habits....not hardly. So after some long arguments they replaced the engine. I was not happy, I wanted a new truck. And now, I have tranny problems. Great.

I want to know what driving habit could cause a engine to burn 6 qrts of oil in three days.

Re: Well, they replaced the engine...

WOW man you got to give some more backround than that. Like what kind of mods are you running (nitrus?) what does your service record look like? has the oil been changed at reg. intervals? DID you let it get low? I mean this could open a whole can of internet worms with trolls diving in from every direction you have to give backround on what lead up to this prob. or NO one will take you seriously.

Re: Well, they replaced the engine...

Mine went through 7 quarts in about 30 minutes.



Then I put the drain plug back in, put on a new filter, and filled it back up.

Re: Well, they replaced the engine...

If you were going threw 6 quarts every 3 days you must have been leaving a smoke trail that looked like a MIG that just got blown out of the sky - or leaving some gian wet spots in your driveway - that's alot of oil not to see coming out somewhere.
