Missed shift; Over Rev code

[Starchland]

It would have been nice to plastigauge that one rod bearing and see where the tolerance lies in relation to the others. Cloudiness is bearing material smearing on the surface likely. Bearings are some what sacrificial in a way. Really hard to measure roundness insitu however.

Given the price, I assume they did this with the motor in the car and just dropped the pan? Glad you got a real mechanic.

Rip warranty

ACTUALLLYYYY, no mileage stamp on the over rev because it dropped an F-Can code at six miles before I bought the car

So assuming some bitch ass district manager doesn’t see this thread, good luck proving anything

That being said, I’m really not worried. Prolly get an exhaust this summer, maybe a few other items and just send it

Yup just dropped the oil pan. The guy who worked on mine has a highly modified FK8

Was really cool to have someone who knows Type Rs working on mine. And put my mind at ease when he told me everything was good to go

Life happens. Glad it's all fixed and you're back on the road. Now..which exhaust are you going to go for?

I like the sound of the Tomei the most but probably AWE track for looks and minimal drone.

As funny as this sounds now with my warranty likely cooked…I don’t want a downpipe or tune lol

Really thinking intake, exhaust, fmic, coils, wheels and a good wrap. Army green wrap on some bronze TE37s would be awesome

so it's still knocking after the bearing replacement? something's not right...

edit: wait, then you said it's good to go?? so is it still knocking or not?

It’s still “knocking” but was told it’s a normal sound. All four of my rod bearings were replaced and the sound persists.

There’s a few threads on it and people with brand new cars and no miss shifts have the same sound.

I have no idea if the sound was present before or after my miss shift.

It’s a weird noise but I’m not worried about it after the master tech said it was fine

That's not how it works, the overspeed code is a permanent DTC in the ECU. It doesn't need a mileage stamp. If the warranty wasn't void they would have covered the rod bearings.

These threads have me thinking about shifter mods so the shifter has a stronger centering feel so you don't overshoot the middle gate going from 5 to 4 and getting 2 instead. Anyone tried this?

Are you implying a money shift is covered under warranty?

Really, really appreciate everyone’s input. As it turns out, we were all correct in some way.

The knocking came from cylinder four’s rod bearing. Cylinder 4 took the lions share of the impact and there was an extremely slight indentation in the rod bearing.

Cylinders 1-3 are fine, crank shaft is fine, rod bolts etc all fine.

Master tech said the car “probably” would have run just fine. I replaced all four rod bearings because fuckkkkk taking any chances.

Car runs like a top, no sound, and I’m back to break in for the next 500 miles lmao gives me time to work on my shit shifting

“Slow is steady, steady is smooth, and smooth is fast”

Glad you got it sorted out. Like I was saying that knocking was louder then my 1530s and full race HPFP lmfao

What? I just said its NOT covered and the powertrain warranty is gone

Sorry I misinterpreted this
