Code P0026
The engine seized. It became so hard to turn had to manufacture a special tool to hold the crank pulley. Found two spun rod bearings that damaged the crankshaft beyond repair. I found the oil siphon/ oil intake filter completely clogged. The B109 must have loosened all the crud and grime in the engine. Couldn't believe how much crud was in there.
Now, rebuilding.

I suspected the engine being seized because I used engine flush on an old chevy lumina when i was a teenager and the same thing happened. It did such a good job loosening everything up that it killed the pump and seized the engine.
BG109 EPR is what I had used.
Rebuilt the engine. New bearings, new rings, valves etc. Also replaced the VVT's. It ran great for the 50 miles I drove it to the dealership to get alignment, when returned to me, it was a different car. It was sluggish and the same codes are back.
