Havent noticed it on my SS yet.
Major problem with the 3.6 Pentastar. Ours was the driver side. And the sad part is, when I spoke with the service manager he stated is was a machining issue where the valve guides sit. Supposedly the angle was slightly off and created a bind with the valve stem, causing the guides to prematurely wear. Then the blowby starts, and once it gets significant, misfire. At least this is what I was told! Almost all of them were driver side failures.
