I have the extension you need. Thanks to my new tool kit. I heard a lot of people say you need to tighted the endlinks if there is clunking.

 

Everyone - Will be meeting at the redcoat on woodward at 7:30

 

hey Johny, its Felix.. I met you on Woodward.. if that's you lol

 

yup that would be him .

 

Yep thats me. It was nice to meet ya.

 

I'm pretty sure it is the bushings now (need lube). The endlinks were too tight to loosen. Tightening the strut to the transverse link helped reduce noise - but still clunking when angling up/down bumps.

I'll remind you about the socket extension the next time I make it out to a meet. It may be a couple weeks.. my engine replacement was ordered today.

 

WOW, new engine
That has to be awesome!
Knowing that your going to have a fresh heart put in the car.

 

Yeah.. Especially since I know now that I drove her hard with low oil. But the break-in is a killer.. lol. I'm going to drive her like a grandma for that 1200 miles.

 

Datona Jess, you got PM.

 

Glad your getting a new motor. I hope it takes car of your oil problems. Just make sure you get it broken in before Milan



Does anyone want to meet up later. Today is beautiful.

 

i'm down for a mini meet again , i'm gonna bring my camera alone this time .

 

I'm down for sure.. what time/ where

 

plus i'd love to actually see that TT beast run

 

Hey Steve, are you sure it's not your endlinks?

And new engine....cool.....that's why I wanted to stay away from 06's. Motor after motor after motor.

4 days till i get my new baby!!!!! This week feels soooooooo slow already!!!

 

my 06 has absolutely no problem it only burn half a quart every 3000 miles . the new motor will burn oil again , hopefully not as much , there was a thread some guy on the forums already made that the new motor still burning oil . good luck with it though only hope for the best . i vote for OU gonna take some photos up there .

 

Ou?... is that Oakland University?

 

yes sir .

 

What time, and where you going from, maybe we can meet up somewhere, drive up there together lol

 

I think it is at 7:30pm......How about we meet at BOMBAY. I dont want to be out there while school is still in session.

 

Bombay would work better for me.. it's SOOO much closer, and I'm low on gas, and pretty much broke until Thursday FTL
