Any lifters come apart allowing the oil to dump back into the pan before it gets to the crank?

In stock form there should be small bushing between the positive cables on the passenger side battery,this bushing can get lost over time but is required to make a solid contact between the cables. I prefer to replace the cable ends in that area with copper ends soldered on the cables and then...

Dribbling injectors? Low boost normally causes black smoke.

You mean DS4?

Perhaps an oil cooler line rattling?

Strange sounds like a dry bearing being spun by hand?

Good post.
