I'm stock by the way. Could be an oil starvation issue, but I was within milage for my next oil change and none of my lights came on.

Sorry to hear. From what I understand the oil starvation issue and subsequent engine death can happen even with normal oil levels. Some have suspected it is from too much sealant in the engine from the factory blocking proper oil flow.

If you ever get an engine tear down/ rebuild, let us know what they find inside.

Good luck!
