Yes but you're not gonna like it... dealers story was that I spun a bearing which contaminated the oil which plugged the cam control valves, which locked in a "low oil pressure" alarm in to the ecu. Fix: new short block, all cam sprockets/actuators and control valves replaced, new ecu. I'm not sure if the bearing spun first or a valve went bad and starved a bearing. Total time for repair 5 weeks with a regional technician being called in from Kansas city for 2 weeks.
