a follow-up post

First the rattling. After swapping out the tranny, I either failed to put a bolt in - or failed to adequately tighten a bolt - on the front of the right side heat shield around the exhaust manifold. Put one in and all is quiet on that front.

Haven't addressed the slotted rotors issue yet. As SVXer95 said, I can only hear the noise with window down, but it still irritates me. My old tires were SO noisy I'm guessing the sound was always there, I just couldn't hear it. I found the brake caliper grease partially used (forgot I bought it the first time, and bought another) so I assume I did correctly assemble the parts - gettin' old & senile sucks. I might just go back to OEM style rotors and see what they do for the sound.
