*******update********

Just talked to the shop manager. They took apart the engine down to the heads and valves. They FOUND NOTHING.... The pistons look fine (no notching), the valves look perfect, the heads look like normal. Accentually there was no over-rev and they don't know what caused the valves to stay open and why there was a loss in compression. In the mean time, I am driving a 2006 Toyota Camry, and because I have been without a car for almost 2 weeks, they are now going to give me a 2007 Infiniti G35.

 

When do you get the car back.

 

hopefully before install day. need the exhaust to get out of my room. they still dont know what caused the valves to stay open. that is the next task. it looks like whatever happened will be under the warranty.

 

Did you leave the plastic bag on when you reinstalled the valve cover? . I heard that plastic bags can make the valves stick open. Jk.

lol you know whats funny. is that they found the valves in the 4th piston stuck open b.c they were elongated and the 1st piston was showing signs of this to happen. they said that this is something that happens, snow balls until we have the problem occurs, which is what i have. everything will be taken to the machine shop tonight and should have everything back by Thursday or Friday. they also said that everything will be covered under my warranty. we are hoping by next week my car will be back in my possession.

 

hehe.. enjoy your G35... sedan or coupe?


glad to hear they will fix it for u for free.....

hope can see u soon..

 

sedan but i wont complain about a car that is free that has over 300 hp...not a bad deal

 

That's great news - being under warantee and all.
