Seized engine
Well, I went and retrieved the car last night, and despite a fully charged battery, the starter wasn't able to turn the engine over. So I think its fair to say that the engine is completely shot.
Guess its time to look for another 2.5L to drop into it, or just part out what's left of the car. What a crappy engine, regular oil changes, and the thing is still shot @ 80k. With a woman driver no less and its never even been off-road.
Wonder if I should switch to synthetic in the new engine?
