Does the valve cover have VVT on it? If so, it is a 2.4l not 2.2l.
I would pull the bulbs out to see what type they are, LED, etc. Strange they are not burning out.

They were the Sylvania blue lights and the wattages was different than the regular headlights that came with the car so they sell oem headlight assemblys with non OEM lights they were drawing too much power
