Kinda makes you want to go check your oil level doesn't it? =) These people learned the hard way, just like me. I didn't check my oil on my 5sfe after it was 3,500 miles since the last oil change. For some reason the 5s didn't like nasty oil so it found a way to get rid of it without me knowing. Rod bearing started going out. Luckily I stopped the car the instant I heard a noise so nothing too major happened. It just knocks between 2k and 3k rpm...anything over or under that and it doesnt make a noise. But I dont drive it anymore as I want to see exactly what that little bit of knocking did to my rod bearing. I should hopefully find out within a few weeks cause the 5s is getting replaced with a 3s.
