I am coming from the perspective of what to do about the already diagnosed sludged engine.
Meaning, the oil pressure light is on, there is a whining noise from the timing chain area, or there is evidence of sludge when you remove the valve cover (that is cheap and easy to do).
I am coming from the perspective of observing posts below who have engines that have NOT seized and are only being offered the $8,000 engine replacement option.
Even with dropping the oil pan twice and cleaning out the engine, you are still way under $2,000 of labor worst case....which is way less than $8,000.
My only point is that a cleaning option must be offered and evaluated. ANd that Andrews of Princeton is the only resurce to have thought that through.
