I have had numerous problems with my car in the last few months,just when I think they are fixed another problem arises.I tried to start my car this morning and it acted like the battery was dead.It would turn over a little but not all the way. I get my wifes cables and junp it off,it makes a loud knocking noise,then I see all my OIL start to roll out from under my car. What is the cause of this?Does anyone have an idea?Thanks

 

Dunno, I know the feeling right now! LOL

 

and here i thought i was having problems

 

Where is the oil coming from?

 

I can't really tell.It looks like it's around the oil pan.I thought that I had a pump going bad,but I don't think that it would cause this?

 

Did ya lose a rod threw the side of the block and or oil pan?? Get under there and check it out! Doesn't sound good..

 

Had it towed to my mechanic.Guess I'll see tomorrow what the problem is.

 

does not sound good at all.....
what did it sound like the last time you cut it offf? was it knocking or anything?

 

If you have an oil cooler, it might have been one of the metal lines. I had an s-10 that did this. It was sittin in my driveway and i got in and gave it a little rev and all i heard was POP. Looked underneath the car and oil was running down my driveway. Thought I was screwed until I found out it was just an oil line that had burst.

 

It was running fine yesterday when I drove it.It would be nice if it is an oil cooler line.

 

My mechanic doesn't think it's anything major. He said something about an oil plug.Whatever that is.I'll find out tomorrow.Wish me luck.

 

The oil plug is the bolt you take out to drain your oil. Probably wasn't tight enough and worked its way loose. That is about as easy as you coulda got off Lucky dog

Yeah,but dang.That would make me look DUMB. LOL

 

it's ok... someone will post a pcmforless vs madz28 or a hooker vs pacesetter thread pretty soon and will bump your thread down where no one will see it and it will be lost in cz28 forum history.

unless @$$holes like myself keep replying to your thread and keep bumping it up for everyone to see.

 

I guess I would rather look dumb this time,than have a major problem to fix.
