Found out the hard way, guys.
If you have EZLynk and SOTF, DON'T run on Level 5.
I had only run it on #5 a couple of times. After each one, my engine sounds a whole lot harder with heavier diesel tick tick sounds. I remember I asked the question on here once and someone responded that the more the truck broken in, the harder the diesel sound you'll get.
Last weekend, I changed my oil to Shell T6 (and I don't think this is the problem). On Monday, as I was driving to work, I hear the sound as hard as I've been having. However, along the way, I see the oil light started to flicker, only for a couple of seconds. When I got to work, I checked on my oil level, it only shows 1/5 pass my lowest. Hence, I filled another quart, make it 11 qts of oil. On Tuesday, yesterday, out of the house for 5 miles, and BRAMMMM... The engine sounded like the excavator is shaking its scoop. Then the truck was limp mode, only able to move at 1 mph. I was able to pull in the Home Depot parking lot. As soon as I parked, the truck shut off. I waited about 10 minutes and tried to start it again. It was so loud and so much of cracking noise that I turned it off right away. Called for tow. Trust me, you don't want to hear that sound too long.
I had it towed home, undone my delete, and call the dealer for warranty work on the engine. Dealer sent a tow truck to tow to the dealer.
Have not heard back from the dealer yet. Crossing my fingers...
