^^^This.

MY PF BB days are over. Every. Single. One. Nothing but problems.

Only reason bike manufactures started using PF is because it was easier and faster to assemble going down the production line and a slight weight savings. They are now starting to switch back to threaded after they realized it cost them more in warranty work claims than using a threaded BB.
