Add me to the list, I think... My FR-S, bought June 15th, vin. 7008xx PA, 6MT, careful 1000 mile break in, threw a cel blink first at 1300 miles when I hit 7100 rpms then went out. Came on again, at redline or close, shortly after that. Next time it blinked and stayed on with sl and cruise light. I don't like idiot lights on in a new car, so I pulled batt. terminal and reset light. I never got the idle hunt but it was in a safe mode whenever the cel was on. I hate dealers so I just pulled the batt. terminals and shorted + to - each time that happened and everything went back to perfect for another couple hundred miles or so. I put Amsoil in at 7000 and have over 7500 on the car now. Car runs perfect, idles well, pulls stronger the more miles I put on it, and I zip up to redline every time I drive it.... Last cel was well before oil change.
Makes me think the comment I read about possible oil passage issues in the head castings might be lessened with the Amsoil product??
