Maybe you should trade your BF in for a gearhead guy JK ,as far as SC repairs most shops do'nt do many so they just do R&R as mentioned above replace the coupler first and then we'll see.Chico(pops)

If it's more of a rattling kind of noise I'd call coupler. There are several people around your area from ClubGP that would more than likely be willing to help.

Greenie is in Columbus if I remember correctly and there are several people in Cincy. I'd trust Greenie and a few others with anything on my car.

I'm in Cleveland and would be willing to help, but I almost never have a nice block of free time.

its more of a grinding i would say but talked to the guy at the shop today replaced 3 pulleys and 2 belts i am picking it up tomorrow going to drive it and go from there to replace the bearings only i have to buy them and labor is 150.00 so??? and he said he would put the coupler on if i bought it..soo i think i am going to buy the coupler and put it on and go from there...this has just became to much with this dealership..

If you take the belt off the supercharger, turn the pulley left to right real quick. If you feel play, then it is a bad coupler.

Honestly, the cheapest route would probably be to get a snout and ported blower case from ZZP. Both come with new bearings and are a fraction of the cost from a dealer.

are the snouts hard to replace at the shop where my car is now not the dealership but where the dealer took the car he wants 4 hundred for parts and labor on the snout only so my half would only be 200.00 the website www.intense-racing.com they want 49.99 for the snout but i have to pay 170.00 then they refund a core charge once i send the old one..i havent ever bought car parts online so not sure how it works

400 to do the snout is a joke. you could buy a plane ticket to my house for cheaper than that and i would replace it for you. seriously, you can get a snout for cheap. its like 8 or 10 bolts and it slides out with the rotors.

you can get the whole m90 setup for less than 150 bucks used from ed morad or in the clubgp classified section.

Your best option is to buy a used SC from Ed Morad and you could sell your old one for about a $100 problem solved .Chico(pops)

well got my car back!! let them do the pulleys and 2 belts noise isnt as loud but you can faintly still hear it if everything is off but motor standing with hood open a bit of rattling coming from supercharger....i am ordering the coupler hope it fixes it you all seem pretty positive it will!!!!

ding ding ding we have a winner.

ok i am almost positive you guys are sick of hearing about this sorry.....i am ordering the coupler now and was wondering will i need the gasket maker stuff should i get the kit or just the coupler and 2 bottles of s/c oil thanks

Get the kit, that way you don't have to hunt down a syring or silicone. Make sure you use the silicon because that oil can leak out, had it happen about a coupler install. Because the supercharger gasket will break off from underneath the housing and likely stick to the snout part. So you need to use the silicone and don't peel the gasket off, just leave it, and silicone it up and around the snout before you bolt it back up.

I siliconed mine when I put it back together. I used a really thin bead of ultra grey, same as what I used for the intake corners and tstat gasket.

hmmm ok well thank you guys alot for all the advice

Will the coupler ever fail because I think mine is going bad too and I can't replace it for awhile
