Default yea but i bet my dipstick pulls off so easily because it isnt properly aligned after i drove it...
thinking i may have cracked it
gonna check that... i leak oil only when driving, and i already replaced front main seal...
end of the week is exploring time to try and find the leak.. cause once its found, time to get tuned... aggrivating to say the least

Default So Purems ships these for free? Go to the local dealer only if he wants to...
avoid shipping cost, otherwise I am sure everyone else would charge for shipping on such a small order.
