Ok now heres my problem...I just got my car back from the dealer (23days there). Car went in with a LOUD TICK and Blue smoke...They replaced the head and now it just TICKS....I can hear it in the car but faintly....Kinda hear it with the hood open and only hear it on the driver side header with stethescope. The Dealer(service manager) Told me that he talked the SVT Tech an the thech do not understand why it is still TICKING. He (Service manager) asked me if I replace or changed the pulley (WHO ME) I told him the only thing I did was the exhuast and T/B....He then told me that the SVT tech asked him to look at some things and the measure the pulley, which he said he did and it was not stock.
The tech asked the S/M if the car looked MODED.. The S/M told him that he didnt see any mods that would make the head problem(good for me). The the tech told the S/M that they will be sending some one out to look at the car after the holidays.(gives me a week)...I asked the S/M if it would be better if I put back on the STOCK Exhuast. He told me that he didt tell the tech that the car was MODED so if the car come back STOCK:shrug: ....
But he added that the tech already knows the pulley was measured...but "I DONT KNOW NOTHING"
Now it sounds like I have the INFAMOUS TICK.....and I think my warranty will be voided soon....QUESTION......
1. Does cooling bypass that APTEN makes get rid of the TICK?
2. Does anyone know where I can go to repair this head other then a dealer...and it has to be in FLORIDA..(STEEDA ????)
3. OR should I have it LEMONED (In Florida car has to be OUT OF SERVICE for 30+day. It doesnt have to be in a row, just 30 days in less the 12 monthe that I got the car)?????
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!!!!!!
