The first noise from my ej22t!!!

Post by RJ93SS »

The first noise from my ej22t!!! it took me a few days to figure out but my mechanic about minutes. i could here a rattle consistent with engine speed but heavier sounding than a heat shield, heat shield rattle was my second noise, anyways, sometimes the noise would almost go away, sometimes it was bad sounded like it was coming from the flywheel. as my mechanic started to look at it he figured something in the engine or flywheel was the cause, two minutes later he pulled the flywheel housing cap(made of rubber) out from in the flywheel where it was bouncing around!! my second noise, the exhaust shield below the uppipe was the problem, it seemed weird to me but it only rattled at 2700 rpm, thats why i thought it was my turbo. just thought i would share my few experiences incase anyone has that problem.
