Altima 02 oil issue

Asked by GuruTV9G8 Jul 26, 2018 at 03:42 AM

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have Altima with a new engine in about 2 months
my oil was almost gone. There seems to always be
oil on the valve cover and white smoke from time
to time. Im not sure where the oil is leaking from
because it's making little puddles and when I get
under the car there is oil every where. Oh it started
to over heat today until i turned off ac. It was 121
today however. All fluids are good but oil. Oh weird
thing when i changed my oil there was still 5 quarts
when it's been leaking and the dipstick said it was
empty. Idk any idea where oil is leaking from??

    My 06 nissan altima has a coolant loss issue. There is no leaking noticeable and it misfires so that has me to believe coolant is getting into the engine. Would it be a head gasket issue?
