Well folks.......Woke up this mornin' started up the car and drove to work. After about 10 minutes I fired up the ol' I-Vtec to see how quiet she was after the whole rattling fiasco was fixed.....Well, :nutkick: my old friend mystery noise is baaaaackkk. Unflucking believable! It was totally quiet yesterday and now it is as loud as ever. I really believed it was fixed and so I quickly posted the cure online, cause it made sense......I shoulda waited a few days....So I apologize for my shotgun post. :buttkick:
I called the mechanic and he thinks it is possible that the flexjoint loosened up but it seems unlikely since he just repaired it 12 hours before. Since this is the third attempt at fixing it they have agreed to pick up the car from the hospital (35 miles away) and drop off a loaner and then fix it and drive it back. Good deal I guess after I spend like 40 bucks in gas back and forth and back and forth driving. So after they return the car I will shut up about this whole deal until a whole week has gone by with no strange vtec sound.
I apologize again, just being overzealous I guess.
