over time. They run very hot when the turbo is used a lot as in the 2.3 lpt you have. The best protection against this is to use an oil like Mobil 1 fully synthetic and change it and the filter every 5k miles. There was a banjo bolt replacenment for 99 9-5s that could have caused a problem if not changed out.
