So yesterday I got my Audiolink Ipod connector and I set it up with my friend. Felt all good that I got to do it and did it right. So then about 2 hours later my car in Park has this bad rumbling noise coming from under neath the car. So this morning my stepdad drove the car to our friend's bodyshop and on the way there the car stopped. He was in the middle of the highway.

Ugh, what a bad day for my 8. Does any1 know what it could be. Cus my stepdad wants 2 blame me for the rumbling, becuase of my ipod install, which is ridiculous.

Keep in mind, I just got this car 2 weeks ago (rebuilt) so anything can happen, I just dont know what and it would make me feel more secure if i did.

BTW: The car was towed to the bodyshop from the highway.

 

someone probably messed up...

 

I don't think the iPod thing would cause that stuff to happen but I don't really know that it couldn't. It just seems unlikely.

 

Get her in to our dealer they have a big recall and I bet you can score a free new engine, Cat, plugs, fillup and maybe an oil change!

 

The most you could have done with the iPod install would be drain the battery... and that wouldn't cause it to just stop on the highway. Maybe if he in stop and go traffic with the AC on high... Doesn't explain the rumbling noise though.

 

Unless you mounted the IPOD cradle under the hood.

 

You didn't mount it in the exhaust did u? That could cause back pressure you know and possible stall the egnine.

 

I'm pretty sure that would just give you 10 more horsepower.

 

greeaatttt... i found out the problem.. and its not a good'n at alll... fukn transmission keeled over... :C..... definitely not havin a good day.

But i believe in karma... so to every bad day there must b a good day somewhere... lets just hope that day comes soon before i go insane from anger.
