Re: Pics of my Bordeaux SVX (large pics)
It was a weird sound, kind of a mix between a knocking/tapping noise but really loud. As the car heated up more sounded more like a rattling. Then when you would put it in gear, it would slightly go away, and once at highway speed, it wasn't nearly as bad. Was hard to pinpoint the location of the noise but the engine seemed strong on a test drive so I really didn't think it was a major engine issue. Especially since it had no leaks or smoke or anything....
Jason (Budfreak) happened to be in Columbus that day and when he heard it he said he thought the flex plate might be bad, then checked to make sure all the bolts where tight and sure enough one was missing.
