Freaking rats!! (Meaning any small furry type critter), but I've never heard of this one before. I guess that the plastic around the tail pipes gave the little guy a place to crawl into the exhaust. Congrats on getting it out of there, and I am going off to shake my head for while. Weird!

GO AHEAD AND GET IT CHECKED OUT!.....if not you will be on the same boat as I am. went to the dealer to get mine fixed and they said I needed a new engine. Be careful though...They will try and stick you with the bill like they are doing it to me.....

Tried to search but could not find a spot on thread for my issue. I have an 04 with about 100k miles on it, and I believe I have a cracked block!! The oil is watery with brown foam on the dipstick. What caused me to check was hard starts (wants to die) plumes of white smoke/fog yesterday until warmed up, today also w/ th trail of plumes until warm. And loss of coolant. CEls are p0300 and p0302, until yesterday I thought plugs, wires, coils, and possibly cat, now it looks like block. Questions are how much will it cost to repair, and am I doing damage driving it this way. once it warms up it is fine, hard to start but a little additional gas works fine to start it. Thaks in advance.
