2010 Knocking and Thunking on Idle - with video/audio

With the EGR cleaning? So far so good, I just hit 220,000 and still seems to be going strong!

I haven't used any JDM specific suppliers that I can remember. Many of the OEM parts I've gotten have been from ebay (only sellers with solid accounts/feedback) and gently used on craigslist.

I'm not sure how popular the opinion is, but with my own vehicles, as long as the car has good bones, I'll put in what many people would consider an unreasonable amount of money to keep it going. At least know what definitely needs fixing and what's already been addressed. (Kind of a "devil that you know" situation.)

Do you mean a battery from a gen 3?
I used to hear good things about Green Bean, but with time, more issues came to light, so I can't say I'd recommend them personally.

I gotta agree.

My 2010 has a cache of mystery places in the dash that nonstop rattle something fierce.

The interior of my roommate's 2017 feels so flimsy, especially the center console. (Compared to the textured surfaces of my 2010 (he says the 2017's glossy plastic looks and feels really cheap.)
