I checked the oil and the dip stick was dry, which is a bit ridiculous. its been _maybe_ 4k miles since I changed it, it doesn’t leak or drip at all, and I never have seen the car smoking or smelled oil. I don’t know where the hell it all went. Anyway, I got some oil, filled it up, and tried to limp it back to the in-laws house. I was on the road maybe 15 minutes before it got louder and louder and finally it just lost power and seized up leaving me on the side of the road. > > ☹ most of those motors have a bad head problem esp with oil leakage ya may not see it as its all over the underside of the car --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/subie-went-boom/244338)._
