I went to change my oil just now- and the car fell off the jack before I could take the tire off all the way. Cheap PoS... I had to use an emergency jack along with the PoS to get the car back up so I can get the tire on. Applied new antiseize on the threads while i was at it. Gonna have to test drive in a bit just to be sure.

@lucifargundam

Why were you taking the tire off to change the oil???

Maybe the tire was just a diversion so folks wouldn't know you were going to just dump the oil. :)

If you drove an electric car that wouldn't happen. :)

1) had to lift car up to get to oil drain. Take tire off and put under rotor in case the car falls off the jack.
2) I had drip pan and milk jug ready in garage. Haha though :)
3) I can't afford a new car right now.

@lucifargundam

With the price of gas these days, I couldn't afford not to have an electric car!

@Pat
You can if you work from home and your travel is naturally limited.
