That could be just dirt or some kind of residue. The pattern is made when it goes through the thinga-ma-bob.

I went to drive my zhp on Friday and noticed an oil spot when I pulled out of the garage so I looked under it and the plastic cover was pretty wet with oil. It appears what originally was just a sweat from the oil pan gasket has turned into a legit leak. Then today i drove it for about 5 miles and when i got home and turned the car off the oil light in orange color came on and stayed on for a few seconds.
What is the threshold for the light to come on? I called shop this morning and they can’t take me in until next Tuesday after Labor Day weekend so got a few days to go. Thinking I won’t drive it til i bring it to the shop but should i put some oil in it or would there be enough to hold over for a week sitting on the driveway?

I would check the dipstick and see the level. Then re-check and add before going there.
If everything is working properly, I think yellow should be 1 quart low - bottom of the rectangle on the dipstick. Red should be around 2 quarts low.

Does anyone have a good DIY way of getting rid of small rock chips in their windshield? I have a ton of small chips all over the place. None of them are cracks, they just look like little speckles everywhere.

lol thats what i was thinking. safelite quoted me about 400 if they come to my house. Do we have rain sensing wipers?

Don't bother with Safelite and their trash glass. Find an independent installer that will use Pilkington glass (OEM) and it'll cost the same but be much higher quality.
The rain sensing wipers were an option. The sensor is mounted to the windshield below the rear view mirror if you have it. My last ZHP didn't have it, so a new OEM windshield was surprisingly cheap.

My Safelite installer had no problem installing OEM glass upon request. It was an insurance job.

There are different levels of Pilkington glass. The crap Pilkington glass I got was from Mexico and neither my rain sensor or auto headlights work now.
If you have State Farm... plan on getting screwed.
