Thread: awkward tapping coming from motor...

yea lol

Well at least you know what the problem is now and as Sabre pointed out, probably a sigh of relief.

I was thinking about this while on the way to the store. Girl was yammering and I needed peace and quiet.

Anyway, didn't you have a tranny replaced fairly recently? If so, I'm wondering if over tightening of the TC bolts led to this? In that mindset, when you get your new one on and start to bolt up the tranny to it, it may be prudent to follow the torque specs to keep this from happening again. Think about how much torque and how many RPMs those three bolts have to deal with, and the stress over tightening some and under tightening another can put on the flex plate itself...
