Exactly the same problem here. The car makes a horrible sound like maracas after the idle settles from a cold start. That lasts about 3-5 minutes until it’s completely warm, then it goes away. When driving near a wall or curb and sometimes even just taking off under light load I hear the...
Exact same noise here, since about 3k mile mark. It's embarrassingly loud and some days are worse than others. Would like to find the source and get it taken care of. Goes away after fully warmed up.
It's identical to the first post of the thread. This is actually on of the only videos I can find that replicates the sound I have. The thing is since I've got the 6R80 and the OP has the MT-82, what would be common between the two to have the same issue? I seem to be the first and only auto...
Checked again this morning while the sound was occurring and it seems like it's closer to the cats / rear of the engine than the resonator. I know cell phone videos aren't ideal for this sort of thing, just not certain it's an exhaust leak from the sound of it. Tough to say though. I'd like...
So you're saying that I should go with a full catback? I see a Corsa system in my future... haha! Thank you. That would make sense that it goes away after warm-up. It will certainly ease my mind if that's all it is. The car runs great, just that noise is horrible, irritating and mildly...
Going to bring this thread back from the dead. I'm at 4600 miles and my GT has been making this noise intermittently now for quite some time. The difference is mine is an auto so I can confirm that it doesn't just plague the MT-82. Ambient temperature doesn't seem to be at all a factor...
I felt exactly the same considering that's pretty much how my wheels are now. There's gouges, scratches and places that look like they set the gun on the wheel and pulled the trigger. I only posted pictures of a few spots. It also feels worse when you can't easily repair the problem because...
Just washed my car after having routine service done. I had a 5 inch long scratch along my driver's side door that I had to polish out just to make it bearable. This I noticed while cleaning all of the greasy fingerprints off after bringing it home. Today, when drying my wheels, all four of...
Congratulations 2l8! You got an awesome set of wheels! I'm happy to have been part of this contest with the rest of the community. Thank you to Velgen for the opportunity to compete and for everyone who voted. I never expected to be in the top 10, let alone a runner-up so I still feel like a...
Holy cow! I've been casually checking the thread to see where the contest was going. I didn't think in a million years I'd have a chance with such stiff competition. Just being in the top 10 is chaulked up as a win in my book! Thank you all who voted for my car! I truly feel honored to be a...
I've had very good luck selling the parts from my Eco on the forum so I thought I'd list these here first. For sale are 2x 500w Alpine Type-S subwoofers and 1x Alpine MRV-500 amp. Everything was working flawlessly when I removed them from my Evo before trading to the the Eco. They've been...
Just curbed my wheel / tire in a rush to get a good parking spot :frusty:. If anyone has just one wheel for sale, please let me know. Must be in near perfect condition. I'm going to check on what machining it out will cost as well. Thanks!
Haha! Looks EXACTLY like what happened, to me at least.
The dealership obviously doesn't want my money to repair it, (they haven't gotten back with me about a quote) so I'll just do my best on the touch up and go from there. It's never acceptable nor easy to stomach regardless the age or...
Just got her back from the dealership, with no fix until (hopefully) next week. I'm considering just touching up / wet sanding until I'm satisfied with the results as long as my OCD will accept an imperfect outcome. Reality is, it will probably just happen again. Pains me everytime I go in...
Some clown decided it was okay to use my car as a door stop. Stripped the paint down to the sheet metal. It's so enfuriating when you park an inch from the curb and they still manage to do this.
Got an appointment with dealership service, but I'm not exactly confident in their abilities...
