Default Its finally Come... Oil Pump!

YAY I LOVE MY LAND ROVER!!!@!@!@!@
*sarcasm*
Pulling out of the boat launch this morning the red oil light came on and it started knocking. I shut of the car within seconds, and called the shop. I told them not to start it, threw it in neutral and watched my problems bounce down lake drive on a flat bed. Or at least I thought, I was still stranded with the boat. After calling parents for help I decided to sit in the boat that was parked on the side of the road. I hop in and twist my ankle, and it immediately swells. Plus I have barley any money, so the repair will be on the card.

I hoping for just a oil pump, however if its the engine it will have to be sold or scrapped for parts... I still owe $4k on it...

Im sorry to hear for your loss.

You cant get what you owe.
'03 with a blown engine, $2k whole, $5k if you part it out.

You could replace the engine for around $2k.

Keep in mind that you do not have to stay with the 4.6 but you do need to stick with SAI if you have it.
