  1. Problem Reports
    Hey guys, so I’ve been driving my 06 manual eclipse gs for a while now and I’ve always had this weird sound (rattle/ grind). It happens when I give it throttle and I’m under about 2k. My buddy’s 350z does the same thing. Anyone else have this issue or is it okay?

    When I turn on my AC it makes a rattle sound, it sounds almost like a pebble in there. But I do not know where to look for this problem. The sound aggravates me, and I want to fix it. The AC works perfectly fine though. Does anyone know the cause of this almost ticking/rattling noise.

    A while back I changed my spark plugs for the first time and noticed some oil in cylinders #2 and #3. It wasn't an alarming amount and it was mostly up by the top of the plug and not at the bottom, so after a chat with my mechanic friend I decided it wasn't an emergency. I bought the valve cover...

    I have a '06 GS, and I when I had the clutch replaced, we discovered that the source of my weird noise was not clutch related. What happens is when the clutch is engaged, there is a rattle/squeak from the transmission. When I accelerate, it gets VERY loud, and it's even gotten to the point...

    I've got a 2006 GT with 125K/mi that has developed an inconsistent rattle in the back at lower speeds or on city streets "with character" aka potholes and patches every 6 inches. Sometimes it's nonstop, other times it's infrequent, and thankfully it always goes away at highway speeds. The...

    Lost one of the rattle clips on the rear brakes on the wife's 4g. Autozone has the generic "Help" rattle clips for 3 or 4 bucks. Will these work? If not, where can I get some rattle clips for the rear brakes that will work? Thanks.
