Long story short I topped the oil off beginning of last week and didn’t drive it. It was a bit low from my previous oil change and I THINK i may have over filled the car. I had the car towed hom and changed the oil, no sparkles or chunks to speak of so I’m not sure where the oil came from. Oil pressure at idle was 30ish after the oil change. The weirdest part is during all of that mess I seemed to have shredded a belt. Not my supercharger belt, but a different one. I can attaché pictures later, but how could the two be associated with one another? Thanks for any help!
Quite a bit to unpack here. My wild guess with no pics and limited info would be you might be leaking oil out of the front crank seal or oil cooler. If that oil got in a belt maybe it slipped out of the pulley. Again, that’s a pretty wild guess lol
