Bad news. I pulled the M2 into the garage this evening and there was a very loud metalic rattle/banging noise coming from the front of the engine. Sounds like it is coming from the belt/accessory area but everything looks normal. No check engine lights. Gonna call Classic tomorrow to get it towed.
I will get a video of it before it gets sent off as I am sure there will be some interest in this one. It sounds so bad that I am really afraid to fire it up. I will prob wait until I have to pull it out of the garage in the morning for the tow. Bottom line, I am now a maybe for Saturday. If I get the car back in time I will be there. If not, might come crash the party in a loaner. The annoying thing is that my daily driver is in the shop getting the head rebuilt. The M2 hasn't seen this much driving in... ever. Maybe she is mad at me for driving her every day and in the rain. Anyway I will keep everyone posted. |

Well... I talked to my SA and it is really the worst news I could have gotten. They were unable to reproduce the issue. IMO that is worse than engine failure. I am picking it up today.

It was great to meet you both today! I was in the dirty HS M2C with the sunroof. Looking forward to the cruise and more fun meets in the future! |
