Im getting this crunching noise when i start the car up in the morning and it initially happens a couple of second after the engine kicks over.

It only happens in the morining, but not always only ocassionally and sometimes you can barely heart it and sometimes it doesn't happen at all. When the engine is started when warm it doesn't happen at all.

Any suggestions

Nah mate that ABS test only occurs when the car is moving not when it is in park.

Sorry mate, I misunderstanding," i start the car up in " mean start the engine? Am I right?

I thing maybe the engine oil system problem?

Just guess, I am not very good at that.

Its alright guys i realised that it was the garage door LOL sounds stupid.

My garage it pretty much air tight and the garage door is aluminium, so when the door of the car is closed the garage door vibrates. When the car is started the exhaust blows out pressure onto the door.

All good but thankyou anyway for your replys.

    • I mean from V8 world there are gains to be made in intakes and such over stock items, but definitely only if you tune them. We're talking about I dunno, 10kw here and there on a 300KW v8, gains made by tuning in the 0.2 AFR that it changes so YES but also no you won't notice it other than the sound. Duct the air as mentioned 750,000 times and you will notice happier IAT's which definitely make a difference N/A. I mean my unsubstantiated guess is you'd go from 140kw with everything stock (after cams) to 145kw with everything and a tune :p
    • I decided to "spend baby spend", and "risk it for the biscuit" 2 Orders were made buying parts that I "don't really need but really really want" totalling $2.5k AUD 1: In stock items (intake plenum and throttle body) 2: The airbox thingie, with no real ETA for them getting more stock, so patience will be required 
    • Any further updates on experiences with them? Anyone installed one with a getrag here as yet?
    • Is the Stag even ODBII compatible?
    • So, what did you decide? If these items were going in and out of stock, you could at least order the two in-stock pieces. Also, I'd say the stock bit of airbox isn't that restrictive to your NA motor. To test if it is, fit a vacuum gauge between the airbox and throttle body. At WOT do you measure any vacuum?
