Hey guys,
Heres an interesting update for you. After driving my car for around 3 weeks, the engine decided to blow up. Yep, the oil filter is hanging by a thread. I was driving it normally out from where I work and all i heard was a horrible noise coming from under my car.
If i hadn't already mentioned this, the hole in the block was welded shut and only 2 pistons were replaced. Such pathetic workmanship. What could have been the cause of this because i wasn't driving hard at all since the engine is still under 1000km's...?
The tow truck driver who use to be an ex import mechanic told me that its probably because the engine is a high compression engine and because of that, it wasn't a good idea to have that hole welded. Any thoughts?
