It's about time you showed up, Tom.

Welcome to the forum and I envy you being in the good hands of the Reno VX crowd up there.

Good luck with your project. It does sound like something you can do yourself with some beer and guidance. Take care, Bren.

Hey Bren, and everyone else on the forum. I guess I will get work done soon

before it cost me a lot more. Its funny that it took Bren to inform me about this

forum since I live in reno and have been honking and waving to all VX owners I

see. I live in Double Diamond and have a neighbor behind me that owns a dark

green VX. I've seen just about every VX in Reno There is someone out there

that has a double of mine. 99 silver with a yakima rack. Then there is the silver

lift with big *** tires. Never had the chance to actually talk to anyone

except Bren. But Im sure that will change now. One more thing. I have

always noticed when I stop at a light or whatever there's a kind of clunk

sound. Since this has been going on for years I assumed its normal....Is it?

Everything else is good other than the windows and oil consumption.

BTW- could the clunking sound possiby be the TOD engaging and

disengaging?

PS I have a right door motor assembly for sell never used. Bought it thinking that was the problem. make offer.

Hey Tom,

Cool, you live down by me and CrnCnn. I live in south Reno also. We should meet up at the new Bully's sometime soon. I know the other guys will be down for dinner and few brewskies.

The clunk is normal for the most part, except it can be better or worse. To me, it sounds like you need a trans service, which I am sure we can help you with, that is, if you wanna save some money, get a little dirty and spend some quality time with the other VXers in town. It's actually an easy job when you have a couple helpers. After my first trans service, my shifting and clunking was WAY better. This is part of the VX that I think gets let go too long and too often, and mainly because our trans is a closed system and requires more work to get at.

I bet the Dragon you live by belongs to the lady who works at the post office off Mccabe Dr. I met her a few weeks ago. She has less than 20k on her clock!!!

We get together pretty often, and it would be really cool to add another VXer to the pack. I've been working on David (oldguywithgoodtaste) for a while too, he also has an Astral...

A 5 member meet-up would be sooooo sweet.

Welcome to the family, if you ever get stuck in the desert the VX rescue brigade is always a call away. Right Bart?...And it will only cost you a round of beer and pizza.

Does it clunk as you accelerate from a stop?

Absolutely! With such a rare vehicle, and such a following, VXers are always stronger in numbers.

yep it clunks at start up. But after hearing about all the 99 engine failures I'm pretty lucky.....so far. 73K
