Well where to start.

1. Saturday I decided to take my car for a ride (only have driven it back from TT and to the store, so roughly 300 miles) due to the nice day it was. Well I started it up and went inside to let it warm up. Well My GF and I walked in the garage and you could hear this loud knocking noise ( I had my hood up). (sounded like a marble in the passenger lower side like near the oil pump), so I decided to just take my T-bird instead.

Well I had someone stop over to buy a part and I let him hear it.
I talked to a few people and I changed the oil (the oil in it was less than 25 miles on it and looked clean).

2. I had another friend come over to help diagnose the noise and guess what it was not there when he came, it was another noise which was coming from my serpentine belt. The pully on the ac was not lined up and had been eating it away. It finally started to break off threads and was shut down asap(belt did not come off) You could see it was never aligned right).

3. While changing my oil I noticed that there is no cover on my flywheel-meaning I can see a part of the flywheel. I guess they decided not to put it on my car when the motor was built just like my wheel wells and undertray.Also my oil return line is plastice with clips and appears to be seeping.

I just can't fathom what else is wrong that I can't see.

I have had it with this car.

4. This POS can sit in my garage and collet dust. At this point I am to scared to even move it out of my garage.
Also We found a few bolts and washers inside the engine bay. Nice job by my origional tuner/builder.

 

You should of bought a stock EVO if you are worried about reliability and have no mechanical skills.

 

Try I payed a tuner here over 12k for my set-up. Car was great until I had all this stuff done. Would you want your tuner to not put your flywheel cover on/wheel wells/install a plastic oil return line?
I do know how to work on cars myself.

My car started stock, and ran great making 343 whp for 30+k on my stock clutch.

TT did not build my engine. In fact the only other time my car ran great was when they did the inital stuff to it which gave me the 343whp. These issues were from a differant tuner, TT re-tuned my car and verified the parts from tthe other tuner.

 

I feel so bad, this guy screwed alot of people over including myself. Get a lawyer and have something done, you have substantial evidence. I too to this day, am missing my passenger wheel well cover( LOL maybe he sell's them for more money, or he's just to lazy to finish the job.), bolts, when my car was returned I had a line unplugged from the intake(bad leak until I determinded what those morons did), loose hoses, and a ton of other problems.Maybe if the companys name isnt used in the thread it wont get deleted..? Hope people are warned before they make a mistake of not only getting ripped off,getting **** half fast installed, broken parts by them that you have to pay for, but knowing alot of their OLD customers wish they still had a stock evo.

 

Yeah, Maybe my rod bolts are not tourqued right. My eagle rods that is not custom as advertised.

 

Bring it hack to the tuner....12 k that's a lot of cash. Flywheel cover... you mean cam gear cover right?... 12k wtf

 

Why so they can F****k something else up?

Screw them!!

No not the cam gear cover (although that is not on either) The cover under the car which protects the flywheel. Mine is exposed to the weather (meaning if you crawl under the car you can see 1/6 th of the flywheel. There is a cover that is missing.

 

Man , i feel ur pain......do what the other guy said call a lawyer! U got the receipts still? and u know what there policies? u should look into man. 12k is alot of cash. figure that money u spend on a lawyer is prolly on half of what its gonna take to get ur car back the way it should be running!!

 

I just want my car running safely. The motor has roughly 1200 miles on it same with the exedy clutch.I have yet to hear a clutch as noisy as mine.

The tuner I went to still owes me cams,undertray/wheelwells and my carbon fiber cooling panel. I am going to post up pics of the flywheel and oil line.

Thanks for the support. Maybe I will not owe the goverment like I did last year.

 

sorry to hear about ur loses. i wouldnt be to excited about paying out all that cash to get something that seems like it was finished improperly.
but if you were having so much success with TT, what made u decide to switch?

 

ill Put money that mine is just as noisy or noiser, them *******s must of really ****ed our clutch installs up, exedy Hd twin disk ? I believe half the problem is because he re-used my same old TOB.

 

added pics of oil line and flywheel with out cover.

 

That is a nice job on the oil line could have not done a better job. Sorry to hear bout your problems. Lucky I never went to have my car done there.

 

If you have a flywheel cover (if that is what it is called )for sale please send me a pm.
