Took the Z to work last night
On the way home I did some troubleshooting. I have a ticking noise coming from behind the instrument cluster area only when I get in boost. I had a feeling it was the solenoid from my boost controller because I have it mounted to the metal surrounding the brake booster, this is in line with the area the noise is coming from. Anyhow, an easy test was to turn the boost controller off, thus bypassing the solenoid, good news, no noise. So... I have three options, 1. Live with the ticking noise when I use the boost controller, 2. Move the solenoid, or 3. Isolate the solenoid from the metal in the existing location.In other news I ran over a piece of tire debris on the highway. I had to straddle it to minimize potential damage. Good news is the body work is a-ok, bad news is it hit something under the car. I'll need to get under the car to investigate but I believe everything will be ok. The car sounds and drives the same otherwise

The trouble shooting was easy. The only reason it took me this long to "solve" it, is how little I drive the car and... It required me to take it out of high boost mode, today was the first time doing that ![]() Re:undershroud. I'm not too concerned with it. That's it's job, protecting the important things from road debris. I felt the piece of tire hit the floor(?) further back. I'll jack it up this weekend and do a full inspection.

He's talking about the rattle in his dash. The boost controller solenoid is the culprit I think, so he was considering his options.
