 Description of the problemUnusual high oil consumption noticed around 25,000 miles. I am 61 years old and do not drive much or abuse the engine, i just wanted a reliable car with manual transmission. #1 dealer (very hostile) tested oil after 1000 miles showing only 4mm missing, however the same morning i have documented pictures showing 9 to 10mm of oil missing on the dip stick. Conclusion: dealer added oil prior of calling me in to see their oil check! Asked infiniti consumer affairs to redo test at second dealer. #2 dealer was much nicer to my complaint, but when i received the car after the free oil fill, the dip stick was sealed with a plastic tie! Their answer was: "you are not supposed to check the oil level until you come back after 2000 miles" !!!. After 2000 miles of driving they opened the seal on the dip stick which showed about 12mm of oil loss. (have picture). Now i concluded that the dipstick was sealed so i cannot see that they (dealer #2) overfilled oil by about 1/2 quart, why i am saying this ? Because in all my private measurements show about 10mm per 1000 miles and 20 mm at 2000 miles, which is in the bad range as shown in their own tsb. Currently the odometer is 32,275 miles, which is extremely low mileage for such an oil loss. They have revised the tsb 4 times to date.
