This last weekend at the rallyx I broke my oil pan. I did not know this untill today when I was out on errans and the low oil pressure light came on. I will be pulling the pan soon. Wish me luck that I don't have metal in the pan, cause she bucked like a bitch before she died and needed to be towed back home.

Tell me this was not in the Audi?

Yeah, its the Audi. I have four cracks in the lower oil pan. It has a two piece cast aluminum oil pan. I dropped it and there wasn't any metal. I am just waiting for the JB Weld to dry and I'm going to slap it on and give it a shot. I also went and got some more gas to put in it. For the last month she has kind of bucked when I was getting low on fuel. I think the sender is starting to stick below 1/8th of a tank. It has always stuck on the top of the gauge, it only goes up to 7/8th. So hopefully it was out of gas.

I hope it's not serious, we sell and work on Audi's and they are not easy or cheap to fix.

JB Weld? Seriously now, you know you coulda brought it down here. You been hanging out with HIll lately?

520Talon 06-23-2004 06:31 PM

I didn't even think about it. Your right I should have, unfourtunately the JB is already dry and the RTV is setting up now. The up side is while my car is down I have been driving aropud in a Mitsu :bounce: , unfourtunately it is a Montero :ohmy: .

I am going to Savanna in the morning for a wedding so the car is going to sit and cure untill Monday. When I get back I will fill her with oil and try to start her.
