First i'd like to say say hi to everyone so.....
HI. :D
Been into my aircooleds for quite a while but needed somthing warmer and more up to today traffic and roads.
Ok i've just bought a h-plate g60 drove it 100 miles from cheshire no prob's on sunday then on tuesday its developed a woodpecker like rattle and was pinking when i stopped which is noticable between 2k-3k so if i've had to use it i have been very carful.
Thing is im getting conflicting opinions so i need help i've been told that it's the bigend bearings and that i should be ok with just having the shells done as i've not give it any grief since this started happening but they can't do it for a week,so phoned another guy today who's said that it's 99% certain that a new cranks going to be needed too.
i want to get this sorted a.s.a.p and i am going ge the crank pully bolt done at the same time.
The engines got 160k and has had a top end and charger rebuild 2k ago
and is standard.
so any help here would be appreciated.
Cheers :wink:
