Hey guys was wondering if any of you ever had these problems I sent this as a email to the service department for my dealership, only thing I'm worried about is that when I get there none of these are going to occur...which always Happens when I take my car in for a problem lol...just looking for some insight and share what's going on and see if anyone can relate:
1.
NOISE: Metallic/rattling.
WHERE: front end, passenger side wheel area.
WHEN IT OCCURS & WHEN IT STOPS: sometimes at cold start, almost always at operating temperature, (i.e) stop sign/light when the vehicle is in DRIVE.*
When initially heard, I would put the the gear in NEUTRAL and it's goes away completely, put it back into DRIVE, it comes back. When in PARK, it will continue for a second or two then go away.
2.
NOISE: Metallic clicking
WHERE: front; left brake
WHEN IT OCCURS: sometimes at operating temperature, at a stop. When brake is applied, at the same time I can hear the metallic clicking sound.
3.
ENGINE: Surging/rough idle
I realize that I may have a rough idle at a cold start because obviously the engine needs to get going so I figure that's normal. But it's an existing problem at operating temperature.
WHEN IT OCCURS/HOW OFTEN: operating temperature, after the car has been running for a while whether if I'm driving, stop sign, red-light, a rough idle OR surging OFTEN occurs when my foot is applied to the brake.*
SURGING: when foot is applied to brake at a stop at operating temperature, the car would sometimes CREEP/PULL forward without me even applying any acceleration whatsoever.
ROUGH IDLE: similar to the surging, but at operating temperature, and the car has been running for a while after driving etc.. I would experience and pulsating idle. My RPM needle doesn't move at all.
4.
STEERING.
when going to turn my vehicle in any direction, it feels like as if I have to turn my steering wheel so much to make a turn or even if I'm driving with the usual curve or bend, just feels like it taking to much to turn.
