Separate names with a comma.
Next step would be to troubleshoot per the factory service manual for that inverter code. This is for Gen2, Gen 3 should be similar:...
1. It's true that basic fuel is not brand specific. It's the cleaning/stability additives that are added separately for every brand than make a...
In most engines oil is not cooled by coolant and can be much hotter under heavy duty service (up to 300F). This is why thicker oils are...
I'm not sure what to tell you, but if you don't know how to do basic testing, you might want to consider paying someone who can. Especially since...

Unsolicited? I thought you posted on a public forum?
Incidentally I also have 26000 miles on EP20 and they look similar if not slightly worse. I typically get 30,000-40,000 from OEM tires, so this is...
Not sure of the 98 RON in Australia part, but I did a study on BP 87 AKI (USA) gas oxidation study and BP produced a lot of deposits, unlike Shell...
Maybe a long shot, but did you test the 12v battery? Should be dead after 4 months of storage.
Techron concentrate is said to help with the issue (dirty fuel level sensor). Do yourself a favor and start using quality gasoline from now on...
The deaths should be dropping rapidly as USA is aging fast and the total miles driven per year are falling from the cliff year after year. I can...
