I am so grateful for you guys, thanks.
The knocking thing even baffles the idie.
He has told me, "You could pay me #1000's to try and find the source and I still might not be able to find it. I have had people throw money at me to pull apart a motor and short of a complete rebuild not been able to find the source"
I am going to look at the 03 again today and probably pull the trigger.
It's in beautiful shape and knowing who built the engine and the fact the he will personally guarantee it for a year, tells me a lot.
I would imagine that they won't offer me more than 1-3k for a trade in.
The car in it's current condition isn't worth a l lot.
And I was told that a salvage title rules out the spec build guys wanting it.
I just don't know if that I sink in a few more $$$ I can squeeze a few more years out of this car or not. Or if it's going to grenade tomorrow.
You are right, JFP that sound is NOT good and it does concern me.
No other P car I have ever heard makes that kind of noise.
It used to go away after warming up, but now it doesn't go away.
And it's been getting louder over time.....
