Ok so I traded my Lexus for an sr 240 to come back to the scene and the kid I traded with took the car to jiffy lube for and oil change!!!! Big mistake!!!! Well the car was starting to make a sound like powersteering was low but went away after a minute which was wierd to me. Then 3 weeks later the car started fine then died all of the sudden! WTF and started it back up real hard to crank over like the battery was dieing and finally started again and notice the oil pressure was reading 0!!! Not good open the hood and oil was everywhere on the intake side. Then I noticed the oil filter just laying on the wire harness I mean seriously come on jiffy lube the filter wasn't even meant for the a 240 and turns out the filter is for a 200sx and the tbreads are cross threaded! Has anyone ever had an issue like that and got money from jiffy lube to rebuild the bottom end my compression is 95psi and the car dies every time I come to a stop and blow by like a bitch.
