it knocks on acceleration of engine and deceleration, but not if the engine is kept at a steady rate

[Daz Clio Cup]

don't think so as knock sensor isn't picking it up and i've also run my running in map, which is very safe

 

[Russ_16v]

ooh flywheel then?

 

[Daz Clio Cup]

me thinks too

 

[Daz Clio Cup]

how likely are the bolts to come loose if it was fitted properly?

 

[Russ_16v]

gotta be flywheel mate, funny enough just had this on a touraeg at work

so you can make the flywheel move without the engine moving? Most def flywheel

be interesting to see what you have done, Drhouser did that and it ended up wrecking his bottom end

rare, but could have come undone, get the box off and have a look, il bet money you will be able to grab it and move it about

wrecked bottom end? how and what damage? don't need that. it had a new bottom end 18 months ago at GDI for a spun con rod bearing. Grrrr

Yup if you can mive it that much i bet a bolts come undone, i wouldn't risk running it though fella, as i will say its wrecked the flywheel, but if its dropped a bolt it will still be in there somewhere!
