Default Stock with TN kit (rattle)

not sure whats going on with it yet .. just got my car back with a TN kit and around 3000 rpm the engine is more louder and has a shake to it. It does this even when i am sitting still. as soon as i pass the ~3000 rpm it goes away though.. does this sound like something is hitting the car somewhere and causing the engine to shake? maybe the strut bar?

Hmmm...could be something loose. Check all the support brackets...

It has been raining so i'll check it once i get a chance. .. should be easy since i can just do it sitting still. I did not do the install so don't have a lot of ideas on where the brackets are etc. are you talking about brackets for holding the intake tubing or the turbo/wastes etc? or intercooler

Theres a few to check. Theres one that bolts to the AC compressor, one on the front timing cover, one from the turbo to the block, one from the downpipe to the tranny, one on the passenger side to the block, and the intercooler supports..

uh yea......I had a problem as well..I finally found that 2 bolts were loose...I tightened them and all is well...They were the 2 19mm bolts under the car that connect the wheel support and frame..not sure exactly whats its called...part of a large support bracket...

Problem with more than one person working on a car is u never know what could be loose unless u check it all yourself...

now I always check all bolts when I do a oil change.
