Mini?

My car eats oil, and I have yet to actually get around to figuring out what it is.

I still remember the first time you (we) changed the oil in that thing. It drained out in like 5 seconds and we were all What was it like 1.5 quarts when it should have been like 5? you said "that explains the lifter noise and oil light on long on/off ramps" iirc.
Also the canister type filter location and execution fucking SUCKS. I couldn't even see the fucking thing let alone line up the fucking housing over the roll of paper towels or whatever it was we replaced. And make sure it's actually tight, or you'll puke oil all over, everything.

Actually the canister isn't that bad once you know how to feel for the gap to make sure it's on properly.
