the engine oil level light never came on. the stealership called and they cannot do anything other than put oil in. they won't even investigate.

i am calling to see ask why the light did not come on.

I spoke with litreddevil and he stated it was highly unlikely it was cam related. Out of town now and when I get back I have a friend that can do a compression test.
