# VE oil filter + lowering springs + road hazards = Bad things man..

I hit something on the highway, and it busted my filter and dumped all my oil. I was 100 miles from no where, but I was lucky enough to have a filter in my trunk. Got a tow to the next exit to buy oil. It was 3am so no filter would have meant SOL for me....I'll carry an extra from now on.
