    That sucks. When my Xterra's engine started knocking, it wasn't very long before it went kaboom.

    Keep us posted.

    Engine tapping

    Well...summer's over along the fun it comes with,also my 1st summer with my new toy.However i bought my VX with a tapping caused by the lifters/valves train,even though the VX has this issue he behaved as a champion & never give up on me so as promised i'll show him my gratitud by taking him to the mech's shop to take care of this weekend.I spoke with merlin (St charles isuzu) for parts needed to have the job done & fortunatly he got it all in stock,labor estimation along with parts description were faxed to my warranty company (Guardian Warranty) so my VX will be at the ER from this weekend awaiting autorization.According to the doctor the patient shall be ready to roll the streets in no more then 2 weeks when all parts & replacements has being delivered.The mech will also check pistons,cylinders,O rings and rest of related parts because he knows about the oil burn on must 3.5L isuzu engines(former isuzu engine specialist) Now he owns the shop,also a former VXer.
