This is what the street looked like after my trusty single owner 160k mile 2003 Toyota Matrix XR shot the oil filter out.
I heard a loud noise and then the oil pressure light turned on. Now I know why! What I don't know is why the oil filter was released so quickly and violently without any oil leaks beforehand. When it happened I was thinking a rock hit the oil pan, or the motor threw a rod through the crankcase. Both of which would have been more expensive than a new oil filter!
This car gets 33mpg combined average fuel economy, fits 1 car seat, 1 bike and 1 pair of skis easily. All without roof racks. Its not fancy or built for expensive taste, but it gets the job done on the cheap. And for this I say, "cheers, another beer"!
