Thank you! Others also think the same and that mine was built on a Friday afternoon haha!I have been trying to figure that out as well because most of the engine issues seem to be either part failure, which could be a change in manufacturer issue, or assembly issue, which to be honest shouldn't be an issue since the gen3 is not a drastic change if at all over the gen2 as far as assembly goes.
Now for the OPs situation, if there is excessive piston slap then that to me sounds like either piston and ring gap to bore were out of spec, assembly issue, or that the spray on bore coating failed either in it's application or after use, manufacturing issue.
Either way, I will have my fingers crossed for you as well, hoping you get an engine replacement without issue!
