Help Paxton noise

[BrazukaV8]

Hey what's up guys. I want to know if anyone have or had any issues with their Paxton 2200sl. My Paxton is making a ticking noise. Seems like is coming from the pulley area. I have a 3.6 pulley. After 5 min of warmup it goes away. I'm a little upset Cuzz u spend thousands of dollars and within 800 miles start having issues. Not sure if I can post a video here to show exactly how it sounds. I changed the oil on the unit just in case but it Didnt help.

I have a slight tick, but it's from the bigger injectors. I had a little bit or a chirp coming from one of the pulleys, but haven't noticed it lately. When it did chirp, it was first thing and then went away after a few minutes of running. I've had zero issues before, during, or after the sound.

Sounds very similar to mine. 6 thousand dollars for a kit and it does that with less than 1k miles. Is that bad can it cause any damage or performance loss? Another question the 3.8 and 3.6 pulley use the same belt?

First time I heard that noise I almost had a heart attack. For sure a mini stroke at least. Already thinking about a new motor. Lol.

there are more of these kits on the road than any other package out there.

if you would have an issue with a bearing or anything paxton / vortech would get it handled right away.

When you remove the 3.8 pulley does it void the warranty?

Don't even have to take the pulley off. Just the seal

That's ridiculous. But it says it right there. I sent Paxton an email waiting for them to reply.

So that's bs they should cover all pulleys not the slowest one
