Something rattling after seafoam
Something rattling after seafoam
Seafoamed the car
Car had the usual "chatter" r53s are known for upon start except this time it doesn't go away after driving a few feet.
Car rattles every time the car is at idle and up to 2000 rpm then goes away any higher than that and car drives very fine
I have not experienced any performance issues to make me think something is wrong with the engine
Just did a full oil change and oil filter so I doubt it's the oil being low
thinking about just doing another seafoam treatment because its the 2nd or 3rd ive ever done it and i bought it because i was impressed with the initial results. I'm now @ just over 100k; hoping something like carbon is just blocking something and i need to give her a good blow once again
anyone have any ideas? is it the chain or belt tensioner??? I suppose I should start with a new oil change since thats the cheapest place to start at this fix. This car is giving me so many damn headaches man
