so its time to change my oil. i open my hood and guess what... my filter isnt attached. the problem is i have no clue how long i've been running without the filter . is this going to cause any effects? btw the clamp was tight, because i couldnt put the filter back on without losening the screw.

 

lol i had the same thing happen....im still running fine like 15000 miles later....

 

well ur just lucky that nothing flew in and f**k up ur mass air

 

is that a stock filter you had??i cant really tell

 

nevermind...

 

Before I saw the image, I thought you were saying your OIL filter was not attached...and asking if it was going to cause problems.

Unless you were out kickin' it in dirty/dusty conditions, you should be okay. Make sure it doesn't happen again.

 

lol, it aint gonna hurt ne thing unless u were running a rally or something

 

u have nothin to worry about the same thing happened to me, my cel came on and i figured that it was my o2 sensor so i didnt worry. I drove like that for a long time b4 i noticed what it was. after 8,000 miles so far no probs.

 

Eww, thats not good...I need to keep an eye on mine.

 

My whole damn SRI fell off a few months ago. Car doesnt run too well with out it.

 

thanks guys... just gotta look out and make sure it doesnt happen again

 

wait your SRI fell out and you didnt even notice?!?!?!

 

I was thinkin the same, ouch! But just the intake...no biggie.

 

Take your car to the junkyard immeadiately. You have ruined the intake manifold throttle plates.
























NOT.

 

you should be fine... I mean guys run ITBs so as long as nothing real big goes in you should be okay.
