I'd suggest finding a different means of transport. You run the risk of getting metal shavings in other components that really shouldnt see them. You may be able to get away with an approach like Soonerbillys if you dont do any more damage. If the shavings seize the oil pump or get get other components, you might be looking at a complete rebuild.

If you really cant stop driving it, formulate a plan ASAP on getting it diagnosed and fixed based on whats wrong. You're working on borrowed time otherwise....
So iv decided to drop the car off tomorrow at Fluid Motor Union for a second opinion and will rent a car to get to and from work for a few days.

Will update after i hear back, no earlier than Monday I suspect.
Sounds good. Keep us posted on the diagnosis and what you plan to do to fix it. Here's hoping to it being a small issue
Omg if this turns out to be something small (comparatively speaking) I will be ecstatic!
