Re message about the silencer ......
can i literally cut it open, gut it and re-seam it back togethere ???

Ive done many silencer repairs in the past, but never gutted them.

What sort of noise will it make ?? Bloody awful .... or just growl louder ?
and you sure it wont done inside the car ??

UOTE=Mrmiata;682488][quote=GrantB;682483]I literally just got out of the Chrysler dealership and was told the same about the switch off rattle.... its the thrust bearing.... as you say....

Re the cam noise... its gone... and the same suggestion you made...
Some crud that will likely go away too...

Mine is a.manual transmission... and I was told thet these boxes are made of cheese.... expect problems beyond 40k......
Not encouraging..... especially as id expect its impossible to get an auto box to talk to the computer let alone fit ???

The Chrysler guy did say that these engines are bomb proof.... keep it lubed and itll keep working forever :-)
Thats what i like to hear...
Big smiles now.....

Im still trying to find an after market noisier exhaust in the South of England.... any one know where for one ???

Thanks and regards
