Flex plat question
So one day recently my 82 auto. developed a rattle in this area, only does it in gear at idle, if I give it a little gas it stops, my question is if a shop deals with this issue any ideas of cost ? should I setthe car off to the side until I have time? thanks

Location? Shop experience with 928?
Hard to say. Lots of stuff can rattle, including flexplate rivets --- rear flexplate, back by transmission. I guess people drill them out and replace with bolts. I noticed a rattle on an 84 5spd. Turned out that the round rubber inspection cover on the bell housing hardened and shrunk. It rattled at idle. Last edited by Landseer; 12-30-2012 at 07:12 PM.. |

WA state, and I had let the car sit for about 5 months, while I tackled a different issue.

Here is a video of my 89. I had a rattle sound. I have rebuilt the TT with new bearings as I think that is what was bad on mine I think. have not completed the repair yet.
