You should also find this link to drop box helpful as it carries the parts diagrams etc for the Coupe/SS.

Yes most of them do seem to have a grind/rumble, ours did as well. The entire rear suspension is quite tightly mounted to the subframe so you do get road roar and rumble it would appear. I highlighted it during one of quite a few trips back to the factor for our car and was told it was "appropriate for type". Nothing (from that area) has seized so far. I also suspect that new better tyres may change it.

The NVH level in the Coupe is pretty high. We did <4000 miles down to Italy and back and the cruising speed makes a difference. below 80 in 6th it is noisy, above 80 it seems to quiet out a bit, allegedly.

You might want to check the drainage channel around the boot seal (at back point near catch) to see the water runs out in order to avoid a soggy bottom.

Also the engine light (often called the nag lam) can be bought on in the cold so purchase of a decent OBDII unit and phone app is wise. If the engine is not up to temp and the exhausts/cats run cold the light is triggered. Three time off/on/run hard to temp/off and it should go out.

BE WARY of the low sump, consider a Wolf sump guard (use the search box) at next service. Sump pans for this engine are not cheap (said the man on his third) and could mean engine death.
