Does it lose oil?

[Irocz11389]

Yep, but i heard the audi 4.2 quad cam v8 is way worse at burning oil. If some one says there northstar isnt burning oil, there full of shit. Sounds like a twin cam motor problem to me.

@Irocz11389 With the N* it was an issue with carbon building up on the 2nd piston ring. The ring and piston assembly was designed to flutter at high rpms, but of course not many people who bought N* equipped cars ever rev'd the motor like it was designed for, so all that built up carbon caused the oil control rings to not wipe down the bores, thus burning oil.

I did hear that also, so I can assure you that this N* was red lined a lot, it was very addictive to hold the go peddle down!

speeding tickets

[Irocz11389]

I think 25% but the guy who owned it before me got them tinted so not real sure.

@Irocz11389 Thanks! I totally went with the Caddy! :D btw, what percentage did you have your windows tinted?

@Irocz11389 Could be. Mine loses oil too.
