engatwork,

Not to change the subject, but I need to ask these questions, even at the risk of being on the receiving end of the " here we go again reply..."

First, for how many miles have you owned this car. Secondly, how often did you change the oil, and... you guessed it...what kind of oil did you use in this engine.
