Dudes...
My mind is totally blown right now.
Was hoping I was dreaming at the end of last season as I thought the SC was developing a new noise under full song. Noise being a lot quieter but similar to that of the metallic sputtering on old VW Beatles, and only when the car is being hammered on.
The more I read, the more convinced I'd become I was blessed with broken head studs. Mrs Saucy and I were just in the garage, pulled the lower covers. Nothing! (Which was an amazing feeling of relief and wtf!?) I even stuck the hex-head down in there to put a little torque on them and ensure they were in 1 piece.
Buttoned that back up and fastidiously covered every visible inch of the HEs and collectors, again, nothing denoting exhaust leak (carbon build-up)
Think I should re-torque the heads while I'm in there? Pull the upper covers and re-torque them as well?
The car runs great, idfk wtf to think at this point.
