Slam=

[Dude]

Dont even know how it happened. Noticed my oil light was on and there was a little smoke. Pulled over and luckily i was real close to my dads warehouse. Grabbed a work truck and drove home to get more oil (nothing on dipstick, but i have a bad rear main so this has happened before) I get back and throw 3 quarts in and nothing shows up till i see a huge puddle underneath the car. Was able to get it on a contruction trailer and get it back to myhouse.

I have a skid plate and I am more than "fairly" low. A skid plate hangs like an inch under your pan. So you're saying if you had a skid plate, it would touch pavement lol?

[IRON-E]

NO EDWIN. BLOWS.

Only sometimes but to the OP that really sounds low man, are your shox blown or something else has happened down there.

[lolcantturn]

what a good reminder.
I usually blow through speed bumps, but I had to learn not to do that on an E30 the hard way. Scraping is the worst sound ever.

No, grinding gears is. I ground teh shiz out of third while attempting to double cluth/ upshift >.<

OP, that sucks! Definitely get a Sid plate. Ever thought of raising the engine with spacers if you are indeed that low?

No idea how you cracked that thing, you must have hit a boulder or something

I dont even remember hitting anything =/


Is there anyway to have a hairline crack then a sudden jolt in the car or something cause it to fully blow?

[White325is]

Damn son, Thats not even slammed or low.
I daily like this for months before I went to bags.

I remember mine kept hitting on the oil pan bolt, made it leak a lil but never anything major like that and mine was low! Anyway invest on the skid plate is my say ....
