Random part came off my car... i think...
Not sure what it is, my car made a strange, one off clunk/scrape sort of noise, when i pulled over and had a look this is what i found...
Not sure what the hell it is, or what it does, its just a metal circle with a section missing. Suggestions?

It's one of your piston rings.
I'd say by the colour, it's out of #4 cylinder.
Easy to re-install, simply remove air filter and place in air filter box. Fill box to brim with 'Morey's Upper Cylinder Lubricant', this will help it slide past the intake valve. Remove #4 sparkplug lead and start car, hold at 4,000rpm for 10 minutes then switch off, allow to cool.
lol. sorry about that. just looks like a random piece of steel.

The same people who shouldn't be driving on the roads in the first place? :P

+1 for random metal you just happened to run over.
Jizz in my pants
Ran over a pair of pliers once, went through the floor just in front of where the seat bolts to, was dragging down the rd till I realised. imagine what that could've done if it was the tank it hit. kept the pliers and now in my tool box.
sorry about the random reply.
{-_-}
where the pliers stanley?

Hence this at the bottom of the post.
Yes I do realise there are people that would believe that and it saddens me to no end.
But I know the difference and that's all that matters.
Back to topic, I still think it's a random piece of steel, chuck her in the bin. Or use it to pick your teeth, whatever blows your skirt up.
Yeah i thought it may have been random, but im not too mechanically minded to the extent people on here are, and better safe then sorry.

Ahhh Yes, Ahhh Yes....

aZk.
Does your handbrake still work? Can't get a clear pic of it but sort of looks like part of a cable
Bit too think and too neat for that.
Cable would have frayed at the ends if broken.
Sneaky Bastard ;)
I say its a random piece of wire...
If it was something important you would have known by now.
Where was the wire sitting when you pulled over?

Too thin to be the hubcap rings.
I reckon you've just run over something, nothing to worry about mate

Wire support out of one of Pamela Anderson's bras maybe?

Ive seen one of these before.
It's the smaller of a set of nose rings as worn by a lebanese from the gong. Better check your exhaust for embedded flatbread and make sure theres no cheese stuck on the radiator it reeks after a while.
Id also hose the gearbox before it makes you fully siiiiiiiik

Aw man, but i just had the flux capacitor serviced...
They said it would run on tacky rubbish so i went to the local wreckers and started getting pieces off mid 90s Fords
The current stuff is even more crappy, either way you'll do us all a favour by using either as it will tidy up our country.
