Not changing your oil frequently enough (not just mileage, but time) is a huge factor in this equation as well as the oil thats used. When chlorinated paraffin is included in the composition of an oil, the AOS hates it.
On top of that, the AOS is a low quality product and always has been. If it wasn't an emissions component I would have released our version long ago.

Jake, I change my oil more often than average, between 3500 and 4000 miles. I am at the coast and driving along elevations that vary between 50 and 200 feet above sea level. What oils contain chlorinated paraffin, or should I ask what qualified oils don't have chlorinated paraffin? Thanks
