I can't explain why it didn't stop me dead until this week. Maybe the crap was slowly clogging my filter? Maybe it settled after my car sat for 5 or 6 days....who knows.
Finally, as I stated above, when I filed my claim with BP I was told over the phone that I was not the only person who has filed a claim from this specific Costco. The only Costco that has publicly acknowledged the issue is one in Northwest Indiana. I am hoping my local store does as well.

I dunno. Seems like a stretch.
But either way, glad you found the cause of your problem.
