This explains why N55s have had a tendency to wear out rod bearings faster than one would expect, the sump pickup is different and as they said in the video sometimes it sucks in air because it only picks up from one place as apposed to three. Oils starvation over a long period of time. Moral of the story, keep a lot of oil in your pan, never let it get low, change it often and keep an eye on it. Too bad they didnt think about that when they decided to delete the dipstick...hmm
