Re: What broke on your car today?
didn't exactly break as much as 'I' destroyed it.
cheap chinese -10 Fitting stuck in my oil cooler... shit was made of fuckin zinc or something...
was trying to put in a -6 reducer to hopefully match the hose and keep flow stable.

Probably just a control arm bushing or something like that. It's likely that a bushing is very compressed or torn, and is normally under load until a change in force direction unloads it and makes it loose. Could be a bad strut top as well. Might also suspect a ball joint but you would often feel or hear that under a lot more conditions than just going over a bump.
Bad strut could possibly feel like that as well, hitting a bump without proper damping afterward.

Luckily I don't have to rush anything. My truck runs good so I can spread out my spending, car needs tires hella bad too so I'll just accumulate everything and do it all at once.

Truck has now started losing oil pressure randomly while driving despite the fact that it doesn't leak or burn any, and is full.
Hopefully I can get this new truck on Monday, park this ranger, fix a few things then sell it

Drove the Integra to work in order to get the alignment done.
Leave to get alignment, ignition coil goes out. AAA membership always useful with a spare "fun/PITA" car.
