Evo Help
Hey guys,
I just purchased the evo up here that has a ticking bottom end. It still runs and drives it just has a decent ticking noise randomly thru the rpms.
I was wondering if any of you guys could recommend the best shop to take my EVO and possiable rebuild the bottom end. I have been looking thru the Vendor and Sponsership threads but I mainly only see group buys and thumbs up to compainies, not a list of each service they could provide.
Any help would be great,
Thanks
OH yeah...757 area too please

Re: Evo Help
mine makes a ticking noise too...it's done it forever now, it's really faint( can only hear it standing outside my car)
I don't think it requires a bottom end rebuild

Re: Evo Help
True I didnt know if there were any reputable shops that did rebuilds other than oem dealers
Thanks thou, Im sure they will know right away
50k and intake, full exhaust, maybe a header i dont remember off the top of my head. And I know this wont affect it but coilovers and wheels
This is noticable tick when I drive the car..It first starts at around 2k rpm and stops at 2.5k and starts back around 3k.
The only time I have taken it to 6k rpm, I didnt notice the ticks past 3kish
I think a compression and leakdown test will tell me whats going with the bottom end right? If so, where would be a place to go for that in the 757? Dealer?

Re: Evo Help
Gary knows DSMs and Evos inside and out... he can help you trouble shoot... send him a PM (SAGE AUTO) on here... and of course All Aspects. Stock or Modified only does bodywork.
EDIT: If you are willing to take a drive four hours... take it to DTM in NOVA...which is what I would do.
