and as we switched from Hwy 403 to Hwy 401 (our version of the =
Interstates), she saw the oil pressure drop to =E2=80=9C0=E2=80=9D. She =
immediately signalled for me to pull over. A check revealed the source =
of oil loss. Topped it back up with a few litres of oil and by the time =
we drove to the garage (less than two miles away), the oil had =
