Hey, gang!
First of all, THANKS for your advice, everyone!

raybob: hmmm... I am not sure there is a single person in Russia who knows what a "Detroit Diesel" is..

Riff Raff: yeah, I spoke with VehiGaz already, and he told me that it has been making noise already when he got it from the previous owner... he said he didn't bother - but for my money, its way too loud!
Also, I agree, I dont really believe these guys about "sucked sand" either...

Ldub: I did buy a repair kit like that on eBay and got oil/bearings replaced but the noise did not go away... does this rule out the possibility of a bearing issue or am I missing something?

WormGod: no, they didnt show me the damage unfortunately (have been too busy in the office to monitor the process)... but did give me those earphones (like the ones doctors use) to hear for myself that the "metal noise" is coming from the body of the charger...
I plan to make a sound video of the charger and place it on youtube so you can hear for yourself and make a more educated guess please
They blame it on the rotors... ony ideas where I can buy a replacement set?

VX KAT: yeah, that IS a good idea! I will shoot Anthony a pm right away!
