She's totaled boys. Though the valuation was closer to the cost of repairs than many thought. Lol at the guy that said it'd cost $4K to fix. They're actually paying out more than I paid for the car....

Damn, that sucks. Does your car ever run low on oil? I wouldn't be surprised if this has something to do with the ECU seeing a low oil pressure condition for even a split second.
