argh.... i'm annoyed as hell... there's a slight "eeek eeek" noise going on in the front end and I can't figure out for the life of anything what it is. It happens when you first accelerate, not hard acceleration but slow to normal. It doesn't happen each time either, only on occasions, I took it to the dealer and they told me they couldn't replicate it...tempted to try another dealer since old folks are deaf.


also, my x likes to do a small shutter from time to time with the a/c on sitting at idle after driving...maybe once a week it does it, anyone else have that issue or have any ideas i can look into?


:scratch:

Request to ride along with the technician.

Could be the fanbelt, pulley squeal. There are two TSB's out on it.

Syndicate, i think that's what i'm going to have to do. I can hear the noise and it drives me nuts, it's not very loud but it's there. I think i'll be bringing it again to a different dealer and try it that way and see if i have any luck.

Yeah, I have heard of a few people having this issue.

Could be the hood latch/release. Try greasing it, and see if that fixes the issue. Worked for me.

Dealership actually put it on for me a while ago. Not sure of the exact type, but it's pretty thick.

A pirate walks into a bar.
The bartender says, "Hey, Pirate! Do you know you have a steering wheel sticking out of your fly?"

The pirate answers, "Aargh! It's drivin' me nuts!"
