I bought my first 914 about 8 months ago. The engine is a stock 1.7L and has 3800 miles on a 3 year old engine rebuild. About 200 miles ago it started to make a knocking noise. My mechanic said it was a wrist pin or bad bearing but the knock only happen between 1000 rpm to 1800rpm. At these rpms the knoking is not consistent. It will knock for a couple of seconds then the rpm goes up to 2000rpm ond higher and it stops knocking but my engine idle is at 1700-2300 because my auxilary air regulator does not close. When i plug up the regulator so it idels normal the knocking is there. Could this knocking noise be somthing other than bad bearing? How hard is it on a scale 1 to 10 is it to swap bearings?
