Find me at work.  Ill take a look at your power issues.

Just about anyone can tell you, 2 weeks ago, i dyno'ed at 212 Whp.  Not bad for an SE-R.

Just saw tons of oil under my car. put it on lift and its not the oil filter. Gonna take it to dealer in the am.
I am getting the feeling they are gonna tell me i am without a car for a while.


Have you heard anything more from dealer about your leak yet???

how would you dyno at 212whp with an SE-R

he has a crazy port job on his cylinder head, but never expected that much of a gain lol...

Wheres the dyno or video of proof, I'd love to see that and the curve, especially paired with the CVT.

What did you do and how long did it take you.

wow nissan is really making you run around to get your new car working properly. Very sad on nissans part.

i am happy to report that my leak looks like it was caused by oil filter. Took to dealer and they did oil change and its seems fine now. I guess the filter the last placed used was a cheap one or something. no clue.

Back to dealer on monday!
22k and leaking like crazy not so good nissan

Yeah, they still have our car and have fixed the crank seal, oil sending unit seal and change the air filter.  They are still waiting on the Master Brake Cylinder part to fix that.  Hopefully, it will come in this week (today  ), so that we can get our car back.  We miss it so much.    The Versa that we are driving is not a bad car.  It's just that it's an automatic and it's slow on the take off getting on the highway.  Anyway, have them double check your crank seal and all that to make sure that's not where the problem lies.  Also have them check your Master Brake Cylinder to make sure it's not needing a replacement, due to the recall.

Ok so they are replacing my crank seal.

They said the seal is part of the metal plate on the side of the motor. So the whole plate gets changed out. looks like a pretty big job. Unfortunately they wont be able to get part until at least wednesday.

They already check my master cylinder and said i didnt need the recall. While its there i am having them fix the warped rotors.

My car looks like hell theres oil everywhere on passenger side even the side skirt and door has it and back of car has like oil dirt spray.

they gave me an old altima and I didnt realize how nice our seats are till i drove the altima home.
Oh yeah and the automatic shit has me all screwed up LOL!

I told you that the automatic is a bitch after you have a stick for a while, you don't want anything else and you feel retarded.  LOL  Anyway, good deal on the seal, that's why I posted this to get people's attention and look for things that are wrong.  They will probably tell you that you will have to drive it for 700 miles and bring it back for another test, then if everything is good, drive it for another 700 miles and bring it back.  If everything is fine then the job is done, but if either one of those tests fail, then you might be in a situation like us and have to get a new engine.  We are getting the car back today to start our first 700 mile test.  So, I'll keep ya posted.  PM'd you about the look of the car.
