1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 04/09/2012

My 2006 350z is doing exactly what is stated below from your website. I purchase my car in 2012 and was not aware that this was a problem as I had been driving automatics. June 24, 2011 NHTSA campaign number: 11e024000 service equipment/clutch kit assemblies an oversized clutch disc could cause the vehicle to move unintentionally on the initial start-up, if the driver does not follow the installation instructions and fails to use the service brakes while the hand brake is not applied. Unintentional movement of the vehicle could result in a crash or possible injury to persons outside the vehicle.

2 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 03/20/2009

Oil consumption. I have a 2006 350z with 22k miles on and at my last oil change I noticed about 1. 5 quart oil consumption in less than 3000 miles. I tried regular and synthetic oil and seems to be the same issue. Engine is making a funny noise always. Noise is like lifter -type sound. It goes off after 4000 rpms and get worst when driving up hill.
