The problems described seem more like lack of oil change issues rather than design issues. Sticky piston rings and clogged oil pressure valves are a result of gunky oil. Not to discredit what the GM engineer says or anything...but thats just what it seems like to me. Also, its often helpful to run auto-rx for more than 1 cycle. Its not expensive and theres nothing to loose so I would presonally go for it. I had some blue smoke before around 85K but after the auto-rx cleaning and rinsing phases, I haven't seen it anymore. I'm now at around 118K.
