I had the same with my truck and I kept getting the high pitch sound in my speakers so I added a 2nd ground to the amp and it took care of it. I am now going to always do a double ground on amps in my cars

A lot of dust and **** is probably gotten or getting inside and at that point it's probably best to have everything taken a look at and cleaned clutch side and inside tranny

it's been awhile since I did a tranny/clutch...last october, you might be able to put the dust shield on by just getting under car but I think it's bolts going in on the flywheel side to the block
haha well a lot of good it does to have all the stuff down in Vegas when you live up here now Ya I am pretty sure you can put that shield on just from underneath the car. I think it there for checking the flywheel.

Good catch man I had a shop that didn't tighten my drain bold on my BMW and it was leaking. I noticed it the next day in my Driveway and went straight back to them and they gave me another free oil change I never used it

That's the noise I'm getting from my speakers, so I figured it was a ground!

Ya Check your ground and if its lose fix it if its tight and still making that sound move it to a different spot, or add a 2nd ground

evolution- sounds like somthing dumb...like ur cam sensor is not fully clicked in or something

That sucks, I hope it didn't get into his wiring harness. There is a gromet under the cowl in front of the windshield that is known to leak & cause electrical problems.

Ya I hope its just something dumb like that. I thought I did check all my sensors and wiring before but I may have missed something. Will see tho. It helps that My Dad is a Japanese Auto Motive Tech and He certified in KIA, Subaru, Suzuki and Mitsubishi So he should get it figured out

There are lots of cars around here just that they never seam to all come out at the same time and only on Nice nights Come summer time State Street Down here is crawling with tons of Sports, Import and Exotic cars cruising up and down. We all usually meet at the Mall down here then all Cruise together hopping around from place to place and Once in a while get a few good races in for fun

Hello all. I just met RockyU, a member of this forum, after getting my evo detailed, since the car wash filled the interior full of water, wax, and soap. You think they wouls look when you hand them the keys and check the windows.... nope, sent it through with the rear right full open and down. Any way, just curious where to meet some other evo enthusiasts at.

I am new to the SLC area, only lived here for about 2 months, and we all know how our weather has been, so havent been out to much. Would be cool to meet up with some of you guys and hang.

Thanks again, and I look forward to meeting some of you.
