I know this is old but did u find a resolution ? My 4.8i stalled out on the highway last night while just getting on the highway.
Started losing power tranny shifted weird and gas pedal was unresponsive. Then stalled and I rolled to a stop on the shoulder with no power brakes or steering. The car would not restart even an hour or 2 later. Got it towed to the dealership.

"I'm starting to dislike this thing. This is very dangerous, quick and ugly deaths."
Sorry to hear about this problem. I take mine in for the 3rd time to get the "oil too high/oil too low" warnings looked at next week. It's not good when the service techs start to know you by your first name!

Had the same problem. After a couple of times at the dealer they somehow figured out that it was a software problem and the car had to be completely reprogrammed. Never had the warning since.

There might be various reasons, but I think ethanol in the fuel may be involved. I used to go for the high octane stuff (sunoco ultra 94) when mine wouldn't start. After dealer fixed I only used Shell 91 (no EtOH) and never had the problem again.

just to update on my case, It was both the fuel sender units failed car ran out of gas because the gauge showed over half a tank but it was actually empty.... had to get both of them replaced. Parts were cheap but labor was not. I believe it was a little over 1.1k for the repair
