Uses 1 quart every 200/300 miles. engines has 100,000 miles.
problem has gotten worse. it was 700/800 miles per quart. no smoke or leaking.
2003 maxima 3.5 liter engine did all new valve covers for only $175 front and rears with 2004 3.5 maxima valve covers and really helped reduce oil consumption
This is a MAJOR problem for this car & year. If you look around on other Nissan fix it sites,its just one of its flaws that Nissan refuses to acknowledge. I actually(along with plenty of other Max owners) sad but got used to carrying 2-3 Extra Qts with me,get used to it,its unfortunately NORMAL for this retarded car. Sorry..
