I want to add that THERE REALLY IS A CONCERN in daily driving about oil staravtion. Since this issue came up about 9 mo ago, we have had about 9 failures, related to oil starvation/spun bearings on SVTs, that 1) were low mileage (<50K), 2)5 of the 9 were in long hard R sweeping turns on the street, 3)All reported wbeing well maintained typically with full levels of Synthetic oil.
For me to help at all I need more information than this. It?s not that I don?t believe you, but you have to understand I need a more concise explanation. At the very least I need each VIN, name, service history, and all details about (honestly) when and where it happed. As I stated before the concerns we get are raised through dealer service and the tech hotline, if they don?t exist there then the process never starts. We can?t react without details on what happened. I say this because I personally got deeply involved with a similar concern, after a lot of effort on my part as well as a couple of engineers it was found the customer ran the engine out of oil on numerous occasions. That is why it is very difficult to see actual versus perceived issues. I will do as much as I can to help. Have those particular owners e-mail me and I will take it further.
