So it finally happened. I have NEVER had a problem scraping around town nowadays, and last night while headed to a party around 9PM, I had to make a U-turn at a light.
I take the turn, and there is a huge dip in the road, and I hear a light scraping sound, nothing absurdly loud or scary, just a scrape I heard all the time from my catalytic converter scraping bumps.
I pull over and keep the car running, nothing seems out of the ordinary. I check underneath and I see nothing, but it is dark and I don't have much light out.
I go to the party, and as I'm leaving around 2:30AM I start the car and my oil light comes on. I head to the nearest gas station (2 minutes literally), and thats when it hits me.
I check under the car in light, and there is a crack. So around 3:00 I call Geico and they have a tow service for free (which is excellent I might add), and I get my car towed around 4:00.
5:00 I get home after dropping the car off at a shop in Rockville.
Thats the story. I'm worried the engine is going to be fucked, but we will see tomorrow...
P.S. - WTB M42 Oilpan. :(
