Default Hello everyone

Just stopping in to say hello.
6 months ago i bought my first Mazda6, traded in a Grand Am . Well i gotta say, i'm quite impressed with how she drives and handles. My grand Am had strut bars installed on the front and rear but the Mazda still handles better in the turns.

The unfortunate part, the other morning while letting my car warm up before going home from work i noticed a HUGE puddle of oil on the ground. Of course i shut it down and left it till the afternoon, real cold that morning (-10 f). Well i pulled the under cover off and noticed that the plastic cover that goes over the cartridge style oil filter was cracked. Just kinda wondering if this is normal for 2004 Mazda6's? Only has like 50,000 miles on her, I've only put 2,500 of those.
So of course this was on a Saturday so i couldn't get the parts for her, gotta wait till Monday to order it .

Now for the pic of her.
