What i’ve done to try and address this:
-liqui moly engine flush and switched to 5w40
-liqui moly DIJectron
-liqui moly Fuel system cleaner

The DIJectron seemed to do the trick to address the black soot spewing from the exhaust. However the car is still flashing a low engine oil warning about every 500 miles, regardless of how recent the oil change. The car is stock besides a Dinan stage 1 and hasn’t had any other noticeable issues/ symptoms.
PCV, check the entire system
