Managed to (I think) fix the rattle. I got a can of lithium grease and sprayed some into the tiny hole @ the top of the cable. Took the car up to 5k rpm in 3rd and 4th and had no rattling.

Sounds like we pretty much know for sure that what caused it.

Still going to email coolerworx for a third time and threaten to get their azz on a tariff list :rofl2:

There is a bicycle cable that is Gore tex lined. Wonder if that would stop the rattle. Think I have some, someplace in my garage. Have to look after I get back from vacation.

The problem is, if I remember right, the coolerworx cable doesn't have removable cable ends on it and one end looks proprietary to coolerworx. You would somehow have to make your own cable end.

I was wondering about the ends.

I would have changed mine out a long time ago :rofl2: When I get my car back I'll have to look at it a little closer and see what's up.

The end attached to the reverse lockout is proprietarily attached to the ring.

even with all the noise its still night and day from the stock shifter.....mine makes noise like crazy but id take that over stock anyday

Made a improvement at the track over stock worth the noise. When I had the Coolerworx shifter the noise was not as bad as people describe it definitely livable. Regarding their cable I believe someone here has the ancient Chinese secret.
