Yep. Had a sebring with the 2.7 in it. Oil light started flickering on and off randomly. Googled it, found out about sludge issues, convinced parents to let me get a GP, and here we are lol

not saying i doubt you but i dont understand what a motor itself has to do with sludge issues. i would think it would be the maintenance or oil type. i could be wrong though.

The oil passages arn't good enough causing the engin to run hotter which causes high carbon/sludge deposits. sludge goes down and plugs up the hydralic belt tentioner, throws timing, pistions meet valves... engin dies... 2.7 is a crap design. when cars are blowing up at 30k something is seriously wronge,,,
