I was one of the first to have catastrophic engine failure because of it; I started the registry and discussion threads. I'm on my 3rd engine. This engine reportedly did NOT have the recall work done. Bet your ass I inspected the casehalves once I got it home to look for evidence of tampering. It's been good since last May and I put it through hell when I got it back.

@Tonrogs I run a 0w-20 Royal Purple synthetic. For no reason other than I've always run it and I get a deal through my local performance shop.
I'll get a log of it idling I do know in my time monitoring it I haven't noticed them being over 0.1, what does that mean if they do?
I'll go for a long drive to see. So far driving around hasn't enabled it, and it idles really well. It's never had idle trouble. I have the idle set to 900 right now. I set it to 700 in a previous re-flash to troubleshoot this and saw no improvement
