As I answered in your other thread...it's just one car and unfortunately for the OP he's the owner of said car.Alxgngb wrote:Damn... I was thinking about purchasing this car. This TC recall scares me...
yeah they f*** your motor up and they don't want to take responsibility for it. Infiniti makes a great motor but over the years they have been slacking on there build quality,sugar4shawn wrote:Armybrat Thanks for the TSB!
Now you have me wondering if they even check the oil jet hole. guess I'll never really know what happened.
Infiniti has flat out denied any further investigation Ie: TC cover removal, intake or valve cover removal.
Basically said Pound it in your backside.
I'm barking up CS now saying 106k km(65k miles) is way to early for a motor to fail.
lovemycar35 you have no Idea LOL
My last ride was a VW Passat I hated that car but mileage was fantastic
The car before that was an 01 chevy cavalier I gave it to my nice with 300K still rolling to this day...OD broke at 340k
burns a little oil but it runs.
I made this purchase as I thought I work hard and I deserved a little "sugar" so I splurged on this luxury V8
been perfect till this SNAFU.
TY
I'll bite for the controversial topic. If all you need the oil for is to extend your range/oil change interval, go for it. If you still change your oil out at 3,000 miles, then you're not gaining much from it, but neither should it be harming your engine.sugar4shawn wrote:SO now I have to ask is synthetic oil any better when you don't exceed the oil change intervals?
Man I'm glad they're taking care of you...about the rental, my dealership has always furnished me a loaner, even for routine service. I've never had to pay for a rental or a loaner. Only thing is that they ask you to call ahead if possible. When my car threw an exhaust valve timing control code and I had to immediately go to the dealership for the TC recall, my service advisor let me drive a Q70L since it was an emergency and that was the only car they had available which was usually reserved for the employees.sugar4shawn wrote:Lovemycar
I have experienced the floored this happened, now the floored they said they are going to fix
I'm stoked to say the least.
I was so disgusted.
Now so relived... 6 k for a used motor is a risk, 12k is a ton of dough for a car worth 19k
I purchased gun metal 20's two years ago I think its time they get installed
BTW Infiniti decided to pay for my rental!!!
What change of events
