hey guys so today i was driving and hit a raised manhole.. stupid unpaved roads.. anyways, oil completely leaked within minutes. i wonder if it's possible to get the city to reimburse me, although i am lowered.. but in my defense i've driven over raised manholes before, never have i felt my asscheeks clench the way this one made me.. bummed that i can't drive the car anymore but i have a few questions

1) what oil pans will fit on our cars? (accord, cl, etc)
2) where's the cheapest i can find an oil pan?
andddd
3) does 150$ labor sound right for the install?

appreciate the help. can't wait to get this car back on the road

 

Yes, I would try to get reimbursed. Just because your car is lowered, doesn't mean it's not street legal. The roads must comply with all cars that meet the US spec requirements.

There are exotics that are pretty low to the ground, and they meet NHTSA bumper specs.

 

Also to ADD replacing the Oil Pan isnt that hard to not DIY and save the Labor!
Use OEM sometimes is cheaper on Honda Dealers rather than Acura´s

 

Damn uneven roads lol
That sucks try acuraoemparts.com they usually have pretty cheap parts

 

Thanks for the replies, will def look into the city reimbursing.

How hard is it to take the oil pan off, it's about 10 bolts right? Is there anything in the way of it
