*SLOT MACHING RINGING* Did you tell the tech about this one off Techron treatment? Any response?
Sounds like the additive migh have done its job and the engine wasn't ready for it.
Look into an extended warranty and then do a total diagnostic. Sounds like you have either a big problem brewing that may be hard to pin point (good for the pre-warranty inspection) or roll the dice and potentially take a big hit if this Techron theory is off.
