Re: All of a sudden she started making this loud knocking/tapping

Hold off on dropping the oil pan or tearing off the top end. Fuel rail and ignition system next ... unless you like wasting time and money.

Re: 2004 T6, tranny replaced w/rebuilt OE

Having been there and done that with one that failed just AFTER I bought it; I would say, if you can buy it and put away $50/mo for the next failure, go for it. I would also be mindful of use.

Re: Inner Tie Rod Manufacturer

I just used a pipe wrench to remove the old, I didn't really torque the new one, just tightened according to how big they are. Mine are all TRW so I haven't had to play the sizing game. Good luck!

Not familiar with the 2.5, but when I pulled the subframe from my T6, there were a couple bolt-on clamps, and plastic clips. other than that, it's a matter of finding out how to snake the line in or out.
