Re: another FNG
Not OP but when I got my car the balancer was noisy as all get out, and it wobbled like it was loosened up to be removed. It was very noticeable on both counts.

Re: another FNG
Not as squeaky as the video posted. More of like a woosh woosh woosh sound. Outer ring was no longer on the same plain as center hub. Apparently really common. OTC puller made it fast job. Cold start piston slapping sounds similar to lifter noise I guess. Goes away once engine approaches operating temp.

Re: another FNG
I believe I get a bit of cold-start piston slap, too. It's usually almost all gone by the time I get to the end of the driveway. I'm at about 90K on the clock.
