2012 Oil 4 qts. low, dangerous scent, I feel I am completed for | The Global Today

Final week on Thursday, my son and I had been going to the dentist. I personal a 2012 volt in with 191k miles on it. We went to the dentist and on the way in which house, this god terrible scent got here out of nowhere. I assumed it was one thing outdoors. We even went to my grandma’s and I inspected your complete automotive considering somebody spilt a drink or left a snack someplace…. nothing. So my daughter, my son and I had been on our means house later that day. And the scent got here again solely means worse! To me it smelt like burning . We simply so occurred to be near a pal of mines. So I run in and seize him and he comes out sniffs round and says….It smells like a hair salon!

He then checks my oil and says I am like 4 quarts low. Undoubtedly go get some like asap. So I’m going house, use the remainder of my 5 quart jug that was possibly half full. And since then….it is all gone down hill. It is all dangerous.

I’m satisfied I’ve ruined my catalytic converter. It smells like eggs and hair perm answer. I am blowing clouds of white smoke not ceaselessly however generally. I took it to have the codes learn (there are such a lot of lights on). Final yr I had a neighborhood store change my CV axle and ever since then. My ABS, SERVICE STABILI TRACK, TRACTION CONTROL, ENGINE lights have all been on.

The one codes which might be displaying are for Wheel pace sensor and knock Sensor. So right this moment I am driving like a paranoid grandma. Being certain to not speed up too onerous and many others. and I received as much as about 40 mph and the engine began sputtering. So I let off the fuel and it was advantageous.

THEN very shortly after that my engine Mild begins FLASHING! I’ve by no means seen one flash. So I immediately pull over and hop on-line to see. It means a misfire. Which was additionally a code that got here up.

Longest story ever….on the way in which house, after shopping for 3 quartz of syntech full artificial excessive milage SAE,5/W30, including ,$20 of supreme fuel. I pulled onto my highway the automotive dings I look down and it says “Engine not accessible service quickly” then “lowered propulsion. Then ..increase died. Shut it off and turned it on 4 xs earlier than it could transfer.

I purchased a knock sensor. I’m satisfied it’s the wrongdoer of the vast majority of the problems I am having .

I’ve a query although. Is the CC welded to the manifold? Do I’ve to interchange your complete exhaust manifold??

So I’ve….

Dangerous CC
Knock sensor
Wheel pace sensor
Heater points
The opposite CV axle wants changed
And apparently shedding oil someplace

Is it price fixing? I haven’t got cash to go to a dealership so that isn’t am choice.
