(almost. lol) but if you were in a DSM, my friends VR4 got worse and worse over a 2 week period with a bad valve guide, he ended up dumping "No-Smoke" in it and selling it. are you decelerating by down-shifting when it makes that sound? if so, stop decelerating like that. use the brakes.or are you just rolling in gear? is the gear nutral? or 1/2/3/4/5/(6)/R?</blockquote>
