Lol i get that...along with the bottom end noises, the sound of water spraying out the water pump and hoses, bits of rocker tumbling around under the rocker cover, diff clunks when change from forwards to backwards, stereo doesnt work just produces static, get vibrations in the steering wheel when i speed, there is a clunk when i change gear, it smokes....wait im talking bout my hold holden....bloody VY HOS
