    ETD rattling

    Eh? There's only one end that I see for the ETD. Unless I'm missing something.

    ETD rattling

    Hmm not at all though your car must be fairly noisy anyways as is mine due to mounts + ETD. The sound I'm hearing is more mechanical, as if it's coming from the ETD itself. I can't seem to verify this though.

    ETD rattling

    Anyone have experience with the ETD from PG? If so, have any of you heard any rattling that radiates from it? Mine seems to be rattling during low RPM movement but I'm not sure. It was initially loose and I was easily able to duplicate it but now, it only comes sporadically. Just wondering if...

    HOW TO: MS3 Engine Torque Damper Install

    Yeah ended up retightening everything so it's firm now. The reason for my asking is that something on my passenger side started to vibrate around the 1k rpm. Even though I ended up fixing it (ETD), the sound still comes around sporadically, almost as if though chains were being thrown around. It...

    HOW TO: MS3 Engine Torque Damper Install

    Question, is this damper supposed to be able to twist around? I had it done by my mechanic but after looking at it, it doesn't appear to be dampening anything at all as it seems to rather... flimsy. By twist, i mean that the end links themselves don't seem to be firmly tightening it. Looking at...

    After rereading, coming back, researching and looking up other threads, does this mean that my bpv is leaking then?

    BPV replacement

    Interesting. Thanks for all the input so far. It seems that another potential issue I have is with the upkeep on these things. Would I be correct to assume that no matter which one I end up getting, there will be maintenance required as well?

    BPV replacement

    So I'll take a stab at this again then har.. It seems that my stock bpv doesn't hold boost well and/or is leaking. Gives me an excuse to go aftermarket then! But I'm curious if anything out there retains the stock sound or somewhere close to it's original sound. Browsing through threads (and...

    Hear clunks when shifting.....

    Seems to be standard fare in our cars. Nothing to be worried about really.

    Whose MS3 has/hasn't broken down?

    Nothing's happened that's rendered the car undriveable, though it's given me a few headaches/heartaches here and there. 1) Numerous CELs. Some were the TSB recalls and evaporation leaks. 2) bad dealerships. Went to 3 different dealerships total around my area and had to return within a...

    2nd is completely out

    Hmm. My 2nd and 6th are out, though it's only when it's below 70 degrees and for the first 10 minutes or so. End up rev matching or double clutching just to get those gears to work, otherwise it's fine when it's warmed up.

    Passenger side MM

    Okay so after looking through our vendor list and dealing with the wonderful vendors at protegegarage (THANKS KEN!), I've realized that I'm still incredibly paranoid with just the TRZ transmission and rear motor mounts. An ETD is coming from them as well but I'm still heavily considering a...

    My MS3 is running great

    07 CB. Took delivery 2007 December <3, a few bumps here and there but still performing decently at 43k, mostly stock, except for the essentials.. (AM pads, tires, shocks, trans oil, soon to come MMs!) @GoFast, which Konis did you get? Just put on FSDs a few months back after the stockies went...

    Done! Hopefully I did this correctly. 3k to 5500. 4th gear, no tune, no mods. 75 F outside. I'm holding around 13 across the board.

    Help with logs

    Thanks for the response. Might I ask what or at least the general vicinity of where this strain is going to? I'll take some logs later tonight.

    Help with logs

    Sooo... glancing through my DH data logs tonight, my car doesn't seem to be holding boost very well. It's spiking alright as many people say that our stock turbos go up to 18... Then it seems to fall gradually down to the 14's. Is everyone else running between 15-16? Typically the fix is to...
