Crap! Who knows how to embed videos?

Okay I zip tied the o2 and that didn't fix the ticking. I put a camera on the floor of the passenger side of the car right near where the sound is coming from, and I drove around a parking lot. It does it a lot when the clutch is slipping to pull away from a light or stop sign, and it does it a bit during normal driving especially at low speeds.

Here's a video of me driving on the streets. I'm assuming that ticking when accelerating at the beginning is just valvetrain noise. It's weird because the only side that is squeaking, ticking, and making valvetrain noise is the passenger side. Could the clamps be too tight? Also, I did this at my parent's house so my dad could help me out, and when he was taking the towel off the side of the car there was a loud clank like something fell in the engine compartment. We couldn't find anything but he thinks that he may have dropped a socket from the ratchet in there. This is driving me insane.

[thahemp]

Haha. I'll guess socket. If it's not that, I think there are some cars that have a stud that sticks out from the frame that the headers can contact.

There is a large screw that is hitting the pass header from the frame. Should I try to file it down a bit?

[thahemp]

Yep. Cut it off.

You don't want anything hitting that the knock sensors could pick up. chop it off as much as you can.

Ok guys I've got a problem. I changed out my NT05's and put on toyo proxes all season tires. Same sizes as stock and same size I had last year. Today I drove about 300 miles to meet the family for Christmas, and was going about 70mph around a curve and my stabilitrack kicked on. But it only did it for left turns, and only going around that speed!! Anybody have any ideas as to what caused this?

[grocerygetter]

Zeke...sorry to hear...still, try to remember some good times for Christmas. Merry Christmas sir...and sorry for your loss.
