Didn't expect so many reply's this fast. I'll type this up in between calls.
I've already been looking around at used motors. I have a buddy who is a service representative at a repair shop who was able to hook me up with the shop for after hours work on my car. We should be able to swap it out over the course of a weekend. However, I have to wait 4 weeks before I can use the shop.
You are correct, I didn't check my fluid levels as I tend to to take it in to the dealership every 4 months or so for it's scheduled maintenance. This was the first time I had ever purchased a service package so I got used to letting the dealership do everything. That however doesn't mean I didn't love/appreciate my car.
Last time the car was serviced was Back in November and the next scheduled maintenance was in February. I keep all of the service paperwork each time it's maintained so I have records all the way back to 2010.
Routine maintenance back in November, I'd have to dig through to see all that they did.
0-speed limit as fast as I can when getting on the freeway. Otherwise it's pretty tame to the point that my friends have commented on how weird it is that I never speed.
Accelerated onto the freeway when knocking occurred, I pulled over thinking something was stuck in the wheel well. That's when I realized the knock was coming from the engine and proceeded to freak out the rest of the 40 miles home.
Those were out the door prices.
Per the dealership it looks like the engine was oil starved and it blew a rod.
Last I checked, drifting on a closed course wasn't.....actually I'm not even sure what you were trying to get at here so I'll leave that one be.
Not exactly sure why you like stomping on me when I'm already down, but I don't see how low post count has anything to do with this. Perhaps I don't share stories of me racing an SRT through traffic, because I avoid that stupid ****. I'm sorry I don't feel the need to post my opinion on everything after joining up three months ago like you. The fact that we're all here is proof enough that each and every person on here loves and respects their car. Even if you're a 20yo bro with a 12'' **** that is slayin all da hoes that your car brings you. You and I are here because we are proud of our cars and we wanted to share our passion with others.
Now if you would, please
