So, this all started happening out of the blue...The noise coming from underneath the dash, so my first instinct is that its the ECU. I haven't touched anything down there, could any settings in DSMlink cause this? I know I need a new knock sensor the wire got torn off somehow. SO the knock sensor isn't plugged in. And dont worry I am not driving the car, just trying to fix a few things before I sell it, I dont want to hand off a grenade to the next guy. I have the boost set to waste-gate pressure so if I do go into boost I don't blow the car up. (it was running very good on 21psi before I pulled the intake/throttle body off to fix a boost leak)Trying to figure out what the heck is going on.

I had a noise kind of like that when I first got my car but only happened at about 55mph. My ecu was only bolted on side so it raddled like a damn machine gun going off, until I out a bolt on the other side and tightened it down LOL
 
Didn't mess with any heating components, I'll double check to see if its bolted in correctly, but like I said it was running perfect like a couple weeks ago. When I tried to get it back in the driveway the clicking started and the car like died, but then when I reved it it jerked a little, went into gear, and drove fine until the rpms went down and nearly died again. Alternator is brand new, and battery is fairly new as well. I'm baffled... LOL
