Seems like rod knock and engine failure have been posted more frequently lately.
Would like to see if there are any patterns....
So, if you had this happen to you, please post info:

BRZ/FRS?

Any issues or codes before the knock?

Miles when this happened?

Build date? (found on black sticker inside door)

Brand of oil & filter used?

If you care to share, how do you drive (DD/track/always run at 6000 RPM)?

Or anything else that may be interest!

Thanks
