    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    I apologize. I didn?t mean for this thread to die. Got around to pulling the motor. Definitely shredded what looks like a bearing, but have opened the block up yet. It?s sitting in the oil pickup. Also this piece (looks like a cover somewhere) fell off of the bottom of the flywheel when I...

    Nothing yet. Some things came up this weekend. Also had to finish building another motor and putting it back in that car. Finished that up today, so a couple more days unfortunately.

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    Yea I figured no one asked so I?d just say. I assume it?s on a factory tube, but don?t know for sure. The only mods to it are the CBE and the BOV. I?ve heard others say to go back to the stock BOV as well.

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    It didn?t sound like a normal knock to me. But as it was dying the 2nd time, that noise got drastically worse. Leading upto the first engine kill, I was slowly rolling through a traffic light in 2nd gear and it hesitated/sputtered, then slowly accelerated. Then coming upto another traffic light...

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    Eagleye yea it started knocking/grinding a lot when it was stalling out the 2nd time, but nothing the first time. If it was knocking, ive never heard it sound like that. I?ve heard knock before (not in this car) and this sounded different. No metal or flakes in the oil at all when I drained it.

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    Grinder34 The rattle sounded like it was coming from the front of the car, but almost to the effect of a small exhaust leak, not a knocking sound. Raven32 There was never any indication from a sensor/gauge saying there was anything wrong. No CEL, no low oil dummy light,. Only what the Prosport...

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    Wow! Thanks for all the quick responses everyone! I got home from work yesterday, did the daunting task of taking the oil pan and pickup off to have a look. Pickup was perfectly fine. Put everything back together last night. Started it up, sounded fine. Had to drive it to work this morning 12...

    Low oil pressure/new rattle

    ?04 STi normally cold isles around 90-95psi, hot idles around 10-12psi. About 2 days ago, it started hot idling around 2psi, and there is a new ?rattle? when accelerating around 3000rpm. Anybody dealt with this before? I?m thinking I may have sheared the oil pickup from its flange But not sure...
