BGSEXXE Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 So I was getting that TOB noise that would go away with a slight step on the clutch pedal, then I started getting a rattling noise that wouldn't go away, and then finally a grinding noise while trying to start the car and it wouldnt start. So I removed the starter and found all the teeth missing and back and fourth movement on the flywheel. What kind of damages should i expect to see from this? I already ordered a stage 1 clutch kit (thanks mike) along with the tranquil kit, SMFW and the bolts for it, along with a starter http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu240/tytematrixrs/Mobile%20Uploads/20170103_090046_zpspcjfns3q.jpg http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu240/tytematrixrs/Mobile%20Uploads/20170103_085913_zpsthutfqyj.jpg Will post up a video of noise later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I hope that didn't damage the crankshaft. The pilot bearing should be replaced too. The kit should have that in it. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

FJuan Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 You'll need to inspect the rear main seal once the flywheel is off for any damage. Make sure to put Locktite on the flywheel bolts during installation, so it doesn't happen again. My wife's balls are delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGSEXXE Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 Here's the update. The outer ring of the flywheel broke. Car is back up and running with a smfw, snout repair kit and south Bend stage 1 clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
