mkoch Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) My front main seal leaked, and I saw that I was losing oil pressure just as I was on a highway on ramp. I had definitely driven with low oil for a few miles, but good oil pressure. So glad I noticed the dipping oil pressure gauge! I replaced the crankshaft seal, and topped up the oil. In startup, it sounded like the hydraulic valves ticked until they were filled with oil. I have a new sound above 2000 rpm, well represented on the video. Any guesses? Edited February 14, 2022 by mkoch I made a typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 sounds like something rattling. Something loose, on the outside of the engine / transmission? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
