Long story short, my car was stolen, they ran it hard...when recovered it was out of oil, out of gas, out of water, and the battery was dead. Fortunately, not a mark on the car anywhere. We had it checked out and of course, the dealer said all was in good shape. WRONG!!! Turns out they didn't place the orings properly, we had oil leaking everywhere. Told my husband to forget the dealer, looked here and found the answer. My husband fixed the orings and...tadah! no more oil leak. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Another problem we discovered is the reservoir tank for the coolant. I guess when it went dry and became hot the stem on the tank cracked. My husband fixed it with JBWeld, it's holding just fine. However, the low coolant lite keeps coming on, even though the temperature remains just fine. Any ideas? I'll check the other threads for that.

Finally, the seats won't move. Hopefully it's just a fuse. I'll look for that under electrical.
I got to ask you how they stole it, used the keys or ....?
