The VQ35DE engine in the Nissan 350Z is prone to rear timing cover oil leaks, which represent one of the most challenging repair jobs on this engine, requiring approximately 12 hours of work and extensive disassembly of components including valve covers and front timing cover to access the rear timing cover.

I Finally Gave Up on My 350Z πAdded:
taking in some beautiful country roads back here.
>> I'm on my way to go ahead and pick up the Z because full disclosure, I uh I kind of threw in the towel. I had an issue with the Z that I just I just couldn't stomach and I really didn't want to face.
>> Pulling up Daves now. Brand new shop. So awesome. There's Bae right over there.
Oh, she dirty.
Give it a little shake a shack.
Previous owner never took care of this car. There was a bunch of buildup and grit, a bunch of oil residue on the block that after I did all the work, I found one more leak that I just couldn't take care of. And that was pretty much a rear timing cover leak. Huge job.
Everything got come back over. The valve covers got to come off. The front timing cover got come off. The rear timing cover got come off. That's when I reached out to my friend Dave and he graciously agreed to help take on the job. He's in the Columbia, Tennessee area. Local hero Dave, a lot of OG's know him by Tobo Dave.
Mass tech by day. Savior of my butt by night. He took on the job. She's all ready to go. I can finally start working on the track. If you are in the Middle Tennessee area and you do need some repairs like I did, post a comment and I'll send you a DM with his contact information. I think he has IG. If he does have IG, I'll put it down here and you could also contact him that way. But I'm ready to get started on driving this damn
