Welcome. I'm sure it was one of my many posts on the Mountain forum on RX-8 club that directed you here. Everyone else seems to miss those posts.

Another fellow Castle Rocker! Alright, thought I was the only one. Lol. Live right off Plum Creek Pkwy. I used to compete in Solo II back in the day with my old Familia (91 protege with a 323-gtr engine and drivetrain)

52k. I saw that extension on the msf.org forums. I made an appointment at the dealer today. I may be over-reacting but I figured Id get it checked out. I thought I heard the engine rattle for a second or two the other mornind when I started it.
