i'm haveing a rough idle it sounds and feels like it is missing this follows the car into reverse but when you go back to drive, and drive for about a minute the problem goes away and doen't come back till it has cooled back down. also it is making a strange sound around 40 MPH. it sounds like a grinding, shaking sound. I will [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] to who ever can tell me what would make that sound.

man I hope not.. I can't see any oil leakage on the motor but I'm not going to dump that kind of change b/c of a rough 45 seconds.98 Camaro 3.8L black with T-Tops, K&N Air fliter, MSD Coil packs, More mods to come<br />web site <a href=\"http://www.wayug.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.wayug.com</a> \"are you down enough\"Comment

yea mine had that problem also and it was an intake gasket. Got it fixed at the dealer for only $485. Well worth it to be fixed though. Keep in mind didnt get mine changed till it had 90k miles on it. Who knows how longs the seal was shreded like it was. Get it tested at the dealer for a vacuum leak. That is what gave mine away.Mods List:FREE ram air mod,FREE air lid smoothing mod,Air silencer removal,K&N Filter,Magna Flow Exhaust. cat delete, 3.42 + lsd.2600 stall tc,alto red eagle complete tranny rebuild.Comment

Had that similar problem and it turned out to be the plug wire shorting out on block.
check at night and see if you can detect noise- clicking, and then look for spark jump, or when engine is off look for burned wire.Comment
