The temp reading seems to be a little quirky. It may just be my imagination but I swear that in the winter it changes to a lower temp even at low speeds around town, but then when the weather warms you do have to get up above 50mph or so for the temp to rise from garage reading.

I don't pay any attention to the oil life monitor in the DIC and get mine changed every 6k miles or so. I use Mobil 1 and know that it will maintain viscosity for longer than 6k....but I really don't trust any filter to not get clogged or have the filter element break down.

Nope, I had the same thing happen to mine (popped screw) and I was in and out of the dealer in under 30 minutes. Hasn't been a problem since...and that was over a year ago. Covered under the bumper to bumper btw..

What I've noticed is just the opposite, on another forum dedicated to the Nox/Terrain it seems only people with 2011 models are complaining about this. Something to do with the timing chain tensioners...mabe they changed specs or parts suppliers for 2011? I know that 2011 models had a recall for...

I'm more interested in why they chose the 05-09 body style instead of the current. Of course I have no idea how recent that pic is..
