Well fellas, me eh read all 17 pages, but ah read good bit. I too am now a member of the noisy lifters club. It takes about a minute or two on a cold start before it quiets down again. I have been running castrol syntec blend for the last three oil changes, before that I was using normal shell in the yellow bottle with no problems. I recently switched to quaker (no synthetic) and it quited down a bit. This weekend I going back to good ole shell blue.

I will let allyuh know how it going.

So engine flush is not a good idea eh??? Anybody could confirm? ah see dave say yuh could do it.

Vega ah see yuh getting some rattle and so on , it have upper and lower cradle on dem car , yuh need to go by a very good alignment man and let them tell you where the problems are , and then shop in the bamboo, I was about to buy an entire suspension and engine a v6 somethin , but when ah do mih research is the same HP so no dice there.

The arse want to sell me an engine for 8,000 and a suspension for 5,000 , he like he checking in japanese or what , I say ah go buy the thing and keep it on pause for when ah want parts but he must be crazy at that price . ah gong back in they arse next week.

Wagon how much for thet Vr4 engine and most likely it 4wd which mean ah have to buy the rear portion if available , anybody see any of them with everything let mih know ah going behind that breathless.
