    I got 2 holes rusted through my driver's side floorpan :(

    Car looks great underneath except that area, looks like it rusted out from inside? Have you had a long term inside leak? only way to make a proper repair is cut all the rusty metal out, its like a disease if you dont get rid of it, spreads every year after that. I use lanoguard on mine as its...

    Clunk Clunk Sound.

    Just came across this on another site while looking for something else: "I had the clunking drivetrain for a while. I'm talking about the occasional "clunk" sound I would hear when at a stop, either shifting from park to drive or reverse. I was told it was normal, "every S197 does it", "It's...

    Engine Rebuild/Rebuy Advice

    Thanks for replies, Sorry I should have said price for a stock rebuild. My own engine seems fine atm but it has 105,000 miles on it and i do thrash it a bit at times. I'm not interested in upgrading from stock unless a supercharger possibly at some point if ever.
