Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Maxima / April 2005'95 Max oil leak - 19 hours to repair!!!
My middle daughter's 95 Max has, according to my mech., an oil leak from an O ring between the block and the T chain housing.(?) It's a 19.2 hour job for a $3 part. Just wondering how common this is on Nissans/Infinitis and if there's a 'mechanic-in-a-can' oil additive worth trying? I hate to have her be the Exxon Valdiz of North Texas but $1100 will buy a LOT of cheap oil. Carl  Signatureto reply, change ( .not) to ( .net) The time you were quoted sounds a bit heavy to me. We charge 16.0 hours plus parts to do the job. I can tell you that it is a VERY labor intensive job, it is not a job for your average technician or DIY'er. oil additives don't usually work, and you are correct, 1100.00$ will buy a lot of oil. Eventually it will become bad enough that the engine will pump out all 4 quarts within a few hours at idle speed ( I have seen it happen). > My middle daughter's 95 Max has, according to my mech., an oil leak from > an O ring between the block and the T chain housing.(?)
