Thanks for all the help, that is a load off my mind that it may not be catastrophic. I appreciate your pointing out the possible culprits. I'm definitely taking your advice to park it, it is sitting on a pair of full length ramps as we speak. When I, or a qualified mechanic, find out the cause I'll post it. Take care.
