ok time to pick your guys heads...... my car is a 2005 g35 coupe A/T. i did a oil change recently (4 mths ago) lol but i started to notice a little tick from my motor when i was checking my tire pressure. so i poped the hood and checked my oil and it wasnt even on the dipstick!!! scared i might have ran it to low i got 3 courts of royal purple (5w30 syn.) and finally got it to show again on the dip stick. i did a little research and i see they had a oil consuption problem ..... now from what i can see its only on ones with 6sp M/T? i dont get ehy the stick shift option would make a difference but i guess it does.... so now im puzzled my car just turned 70k and runs great! i put it on a lift and theres not one drop of a oil leak to be found anywhere ...... my car dont smoke at all and it leaks no oil....... im lost.... please help...... :wtf2:

Have you checked to see if there is oil in the coolant ?
If so, you may have a leaking / blown headgasket.

called infinity and they told me #1 i was running 5w30 royal purple and my motor i guess to there knowlage dosnt do well with synthetic oils. so what the service tech told me was i need to get it to a place asap and get the oil changed and try running 10w30 instead of the 5w30. so needless to say i just got back from picking it up from having the oil changed back to (dealership used mobil 1) 10w30. hope it helps ......

I used the same weight in my 05 and never had a problem...just keep an eye on it.
