Motor = blown *UPDATE* page 4
It's not on the oil PAN it's like the bottom of the motor.
What it looks like...to be honest..is that a bolt that holds that connecting rod in actually backed out a little bit over time and it rubbed through the bottom of the motor, because looking through the crack of the motor, the head on the bolt is really shiny where it has been rubbing.. Nothing BLEW the motor is still in tact, nothing is in pieces at all, just where the bolt rubbed through.
We contacted the dealership, and they said even though it is turbo'd it will be under warranty since this had nothing to do with the fact that it is a boosted car, so we are bringing it in tomorrow.

Trade your tC into a Nissan Dealer to buy a used Tundra =p
They won't know its a used motor haha. Or sell it privately.
Just because its a used motor does not mean the car has a salvaged title.
