Description of the problem | Driving this car is very fun and i have enjoyed the car very much but just last week i noticed a smell like burning rubber or oil, come to find out the next day i was dripping oil only not a steady drip but a drip only from driving, once i stop and the car cools the drip stops. I have research and found that there could be a problem with some bolts to the oil filter that attaches to the block but when i called infiniti they don't see it nor will they look at the car unless i pay. This isn't a seal or gasket this is a very bad leak, my research came from a 2012 long term road test on a 2011 infiniti m56 and states this will become a recall but never did? |
