How bad is it to have no more coating on the SC rotors?

[GTLGDP]

I'm pretty sure my rotors have lost their coating in the SC. I can hear what sounds like fast ticking coming directly from where they are so I'm assuming the coatings gone. Do i have to worry about this? The sound doesn't bother me at all because the cone filter sucking and the exhaust overpower it, but I'm just curious if i have to worry about this because I don't plan on fixing it. Not that I'm lazy or anything, I've just spent more money in repairs than the car itself (didn't know it was gonna happen) and I don't wanna fix it unless its necessary.

it probably just your coupler going bad, lack of coating wont cause a ticking sound.

if it sounds like rocks tumbling at idle only, its the coupler for sure.

[GTLGDP]

Nope, i replaced the coupler about a month ago. Doesn't sound like rocks or marbles, it sounds like i can hear every peg of the gear rotating

[Scottydoggs]

re checked the fluid level lately?

and your still getting full boost?

could have bad bearings if your real high mileage.

[blueguy]

Lack of rotor coating won't cause a tumbling of rocks noise like the coupler, but it will cause rotor slap...that's loud. But isn't very common.

Also...spending lots of money?

Probably costs liiiikkkkeee $50 or so to rebuild a GenIII Eaton M90, then new fluid...and a new blower gasket, which is like another $20~...

[GTLGDP]

The sound isn't very loud, you can't hear it when the hood is closed. But yeah when i replaced the coupler i filled it with the right oil too so i can't imagine I'd be low. I also recent got my LIM gaskets replaced also.

[blueguy]

Just post up looking for a M90...they are dirt cheap...if you pay more than $150 shipped for one, you'd be getting hosed.

Lol thanks. If it makes you feel better, they aren't even real and I photoshopped them on there. I'll be getting them soon though.

@bluegtp91, thanks I'll have to look into that, maybe ill try to get a nicer polished one (mine looks pretty bad).

Rotor coating missing makes no noise.

Yup, I know that for a fact

holy smokes, howd you manage that one?

[BillBoost37]

CRC intake cleaner. Back when....I thought it would be nice to take the excess carbon off the rotors while the charger was off the car.

Lesson learned about Gen 3 coating and how fragile it can be. Lost about 2-3 psi of boost with the coating loss.

[GTLGDP]

Alright now you lost me lol.

[Scottydoggs]

i think bill is trying to say he fvcked up and took the rotor coating off. but im sure that was years and years ago that he did that blunder.

[OH4CompG]

In the owners manual for my 04 GTP it says do not spray intake cleaner in the tb or anything with methyl ethyl ketones. (brake cleaner)

we have a few blowers laying around some with reall good coating some with decent coating... we can send a rotor pack by itself or a entire blower.. completel your choice
