Addicted to eaton Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Just throwing this out there, but could the M90 be shot? I don't think that would cause the oil pressure to be an issue though... Does it get worse when it runs for a bit and warms up? I know how cold its been here the last few days... Well it really didn’t knock/tick anything over 3000 RPM after that it would kind tick. So I was trying to limp it home. And the oil light flickered! And I noticed it Building boost (one bar) at like… 65mph around 1700RPM so I got on it.. that’s when the ticked happened! [ The motor just sounds like it's dead cold and idling high, I can still hear the knocking, especially at the end of the vid. The grinding is the supercharger coupler because its 2 degrees in the video! LOL Another thing weird is it’s the oil light is off!? I couldn’t really noticed a knock…. But just like buck said intermittent noise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderw31 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 The oil light is off and the knock is intermittent because of the temperature. It's cold and the car has been sitting, so the oil is cold and thicker. I'll bet once it warms up, it'll sound the same as before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

93cutty Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'm not saying that you shouldn't have run her so hard since it is your car and you certainly had fun with it but I think we all know it would still be going strong if you had been a wee bit easier on her. For the money you want to put in engine wise, you should just find another that doesnt have so many little problems and part that one out. But that's just my two cents.

It has been extremely cold here lately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
