Bunch of sissies! 4 miles is just a trot for a hard
core VW!!! They don't need oil. Didn't get the filter off tonight.
Got caught late at work. Off tomorrow going to work it over!
It still had oil in the filter, I could have drove
another 20 miles!!! ( hope I don't eat these words 8-0 ) We will see
tomorrow.

I looked around and there is no oil on the block really. It seems to be
covering my oil pan and possibly my oil filter. Someone said I may
have blown a seal on my oil filter which happens. (or cracked a seem in my
oil filter)
Has anyone had this happen to them?
Any other
suggestions?
I am going to replace the filter tomorrow and start
there.
Assuming there is still an engine left to fix, 4
miles? you're insane, it could be that, the oil coorer, or more common
one of the sensors on top of the flange. Another list member just went
through this, you must not have read that one. Put some oil in, start it
and see where it comes from. Good luck
