Default Re: Made a vid of my "flywheel noise" , is it the flywheel? ---

New video link didn't work for me. To re-iterate, start with the easiest and most likely stuff first:

We will all find injector issues at some point but your first video was not the sound of a dual-mass getting hammered by a misfire.

I think it's pretty safe to say you should *NEVER* take a C4 ZR-1 to a dealer under almost any circumstances. The only time I would even consider it was if a friend or fellow enthusiast who knew these cars happened to work at one.

It can be a very trying moment to find yourself with an unhappy sound coming from something nearing exotic. Try not to over-google the problem - you will convince yourself the world is ending. What you really need is a relationship with a corner garage whose work in process includes unusual stuff and whose chief mechanic is a non-megabuck racer of some sort. Maybe that's your "performance garage" or maybe it's not - a lot of those shops are intent only on lightening your personal carry gear (wallet) in my experience.

Best of luck,
- Jeff
