My chrysler 300c hemi started idling rough and showing code p0300. Oil/plugs were changed, and my car worked well for ~500 miles. After which the low oil level light chimmed. After taking to the dealer the oil pressure switch was replaced and all was right. Close to a month later, while stopped at a rail crossing the car stalled with error code p1520. I checked the oil which was low and added to the correct level. In the oil, there was no discoloration or anything to cause alarm.
