Anyone has this problem before?

Too general. Can be anything. Did you pull the codes?

your rod bearings are toasted

Im biting my lip.. but please search the forum. Search "engine malfunction" and/or "limp mode".

You will need to scan and provide the forum with the codes for you to get any help. Good luck

Had this happen to me today. Misfire on cylinder 5,6,7,8. Time to change coils

Rod bearings. Definitely rod bearings

Not necessarily. 5,6,7,8 is one bank, so it's probably an o2 sensor or actuator on that bank, and not 4 coils that decided to fail at the same time.

OP: nearly everyone has had that happen at some point, have the codes read.

Or an exhaust leak like I had that took me 6 months to diagnose.
