wateva526 Member 30 Member For: 11y 11m Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 24/11/13 01:24 AM Share Posted 24/11/13 01:24 AM I just recently had the same problem, was told it could be the thrust bearing or neutral rollover noise but only to find out later that it was those bolts. I wasn't driving it at the time but one of the bolts had snapped. Luckily my brother that was driving it is a mechanic so he fixed it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83608-wtf-is-this-rattle-it-sounds-luke-a-mecklenburg-truck-idling/page/3/#findComment-1442127 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 13y 26d Posted 11/07/14 03:17 PM Share Posted 11/07/14 03:17 PM (edited) Most likely flex plate bolts loose.I got new OEM flex plate then spring washers on bolts and locktight compound installed on mine and hasn't missed a beat since.As you can see many people here recommend Pitlane, so that should be your first stop.
