  1. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Like GT Pony said, clutch pressure plate, sorry. Probably 800 on the new tranny and peripherals, maybe 900 since I mixed the oil. The oil is definitely dulling the rattle. Within the last 300 miles it's gotten even quieter. I took it on 3 hour each way trip to Lake Tahoe and hauled ass. I...
  2. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Got it back a couple of weeks ago. New driveshaft, new tranny, new plate due to scoring, and new clutch. Not quite sure which part was ultimately responsible, but EVERYTHING feels tighter and is quieter. Also changed the fluid immediately to BGII, more improvement. Sucked out about 4 quarts...
  3. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Following this up, dropped the car off yesterday to let them check out my various noises. Got a text from the service manager that said, "Bad news, replaced the driveshaft and still making noise. Good news, getting you a new transmission." So now a new long block a few months ago followed by a...
  4. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    I'm with you, if take the tick back to get rid of the rattle. The tick was just a strange sound to me that has never returned since I added ceratec. The rattle is unbearable. No way I can or will deal with the sound much longer, which would be a damn shame because I absolutely love my car...

    I'll check it out this weekend, thanks!
  6. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Any chance you know what line it is? I believe I've read that they default to open.
  7. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Well, mine is worse after the replacement. I wonder if someone that has it off could check it for play or energize it and see if it's easily flapped back and forth. I think that's one of the most frustrating things, I feel like it has to be something simple and fixable. I'd do it myself to be...
  8. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    Very well could be the IMRC, like it's half between open and closed and has play in it. Sure would love to see someone figure it out.
  9. Seriously, How many tick/rattle engines in the last 2 months?

    I'm on my second engine, had a long block replacement due to piston slap, scoring in the cylinders. It had the tick, it was cured (at least the sound) by ceratec. It also had the rattle, the slap started loud at 2k to 3k. Was the rattle part of the piston issue? I really don't think so, they...
  10. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    https://www.redlinegoods.com Adding these, upgrading the Recaro skins to leather, and the GT350 wheel really classed up the interior and made it feel more upscale and enjoyable. Next I'll probably do the pillars, console skin, and door cards.

  12. PP2 OWNER EXPERIENCES - RAVES/QUIRKS

    I've got front and rear but have been considering removing the rear to show off some tire. Any chips appearing behind the rear tire?
  13. PP2 Front Splitter Install

    Thank you, much appreciated!
  14. PP2 Front Splitter Install

    This is great advice, I'm going to take it myself for the reinstall of my pp2 splitter. I've been dragging my feet because I didn't want to rivet until I was sure that I was done in there. I'm guessing you just got the well nuts at home Depot?
  15. PP2 Front Splitter Install

    Yep, easy. Like 2018OFPP1?2 said above, you need a POM riveter, they have them dirt cheap at Harbor Freight.
  16. Could the 2018/19 S550 5.0 “rattle” be....

    I will gladly unhook my imrc to see if it has any effect as long as I know it won't cause problems. I'm sure it would kick a cel, but anything else?
  17. Could the 2018/19 S550 5.0 “rattle” be....

    Has anyone tried unhooking the IMRC to see if the rattle goes away? Can an 18 use lockouts? I was reading last night that they open fully at after 20%. Could the rattle be that at tip in the actuators aren't strong enough to hold the flaps or fast enough to react?
