View Full Version : A couple of strange things

Hey everyone,

Would anyone know what's likely to be the cause of the following problems?

1. My car has developed a crunch in the steering, which is most noticable at low speeds and when turning left.

2. Lack of "go". Ever since I bought it, my car has lacked the punch that every other car I've driven has had. I've changed plugs, leads, the type of fuel (unleaded to premium), fuel filter, air filter... You have to put the accelerator through the firewall before it picks up and goes...

3. Annoying whack when shifting to reverse. When changing into reverse from either drive or neutral, even at extremely low revs, the trans will whack into gear... It can't be healthy...

I've read the Haynes manual, and I'm taking it to a dealership to get the ECU checked for error codes, but does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing these things?

Thanks all.

Andrew
