i was driving today and heard a new noise - it sounds like gas being let off a pintball gun like SSSSShhhhhh Shhhhhhhhhh SSSSSSHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (best way i could desribe it) and it is coming from the passenger front it sounds like i figured it would be a strut of maybe a bearing/bushing of somesort you guys have any ideas? thanks
ohh and i have the car up in the air and on the passenger dirve axle there is a rubber thing that looks like an engine mount just sitting in the middle of the axle(obviously intentionally put there not just something wrapped around it) whats that for?? thanks This post has been edited by CelicaB: Apr 4, 2005 - 1:28 PM |

Could be but you'd hear more of a grinding and even feel it in the wheel.
Try to find out where that piece thats just loungin on your axle goes and you might find a clue to whats goin on. -------------------- |
