anyone want to buy my car?
i just had an oil change done and the idiot spilled oil down the drain by the wiperblades then spilled oil down by the oil filter...
i was gunna have them do the spark plugs but my valve cover gasket is leaking and spark plug seals are leaking...they took off all the coil packs and all of them had oil....now my car is almost missing and sounding weird...they did not torque the spark plug with a torque wrench..oil got into the cylinder
i took off the oil cap when running and it sounds like its knocking
their has been a code for mis communcations in the ecu...but thats been their for months
but the main issue is after driving for a while i get a very very very very very loud "radio hissing" noise like when u flip thru the radio...
reving doesnt effect the hissing noise..
only hisses when driving...
turning on the heat doesnt effect it
it happends randomly and sometimes for a good 20 seconds..its coming striaght from the radio area...(its not the damn radio)
i checked the air vacuum caps and hoses by oil filter..their all on
id record a video but its hard lol
i dont know what the mechanic did under my car
plz help..plz plz

Sammy,
I want to help you, but I feel like I don't have enough info to go on.
Lets put the radio issue to the side for now.
Our cars have spark plug seals that get old and shrink. This allows oil from the top end of the engine to seep into the spark plug recess. If one seal leaks it is just a matter of time until all of your spark plugs appear to be coated in oil. Is this why you assume your plugs are not properly torqued? Or did a second mechanic inform you of this?
The knocking sound is what scares me. But where is this sound coming from? When I need to find a noise, I useee a paper towel center roll and patiently listen with the one end to my ear, and the other towards the engine. Take breaks if you get tired of listening. Tell us, is the noise only on startup or always on? Does it get worse when you go up a hill?
I have some time to check back in tonight.

Dude you SERIOUSLY need to improve your written communication skills.
And why would you hire a 'mechanic' that can't find an oil filter?
Are we talkin' Jiffy Lube here?
What is the issue you need help with? You're not even clear about that Forrest.
Mama always said it's hard to record a video.

It's so unlike Ed to be so kind to someone who's so unclear.
Where's that cynical acerbic wit we all love and have come to expect?
Maybe Forrest wants to expose his cylinder to you?
What kind of Pakled retard pours oil down the windshield drain?
Perhaps there's no oil in the engine because that they thought that was the
fill location.
Did your rubber band break?
Is this your mechanic?
Ed, Come with me if you want to live!!!! Get to the Choppah!!!
