Hey guys ok two question for all of you i know there was a recall for the 2004 on the bolt joint for the car or so i have a 2006 and i have only 7000km on it and i noticed that when i go over little bumps sometimes i feel a little vibration in the steering wheel which doesnt feel normal started to happen now it feels like when u drive an older car that has the supsension all loose and stuff u know what i mean the second thing is when i drive my car on low revs under 3000rpms and add the gas pedal to speed it its almost like a whistling sound u hear for a bit and the engine sounds when u have ur windows closed like example when u have ur car in a low gear older cars get that engine gargling sound like they have not enough power on the gear so i dunno is this normal

 

hmmm guess no one can help out with this and its not the marble in a can sound just to let u know its only on low revs

if u've never had a sports car before, the 8 has sport-tuned suspension, so u will feel the bumps. it's perfectly normal. (the price for tight-cornering and handling.)

i have an 05 and my engine just started whistling during idling too. it never did it before, so i did a SEARCH on the forum and found several threads on this topic. and, everyone here pretty much said that the whistling sound is a natural characteristic of the RENESIS engine and is perfectly normal.

so, it sounds like your car is perfectly fine.

 

guys thnaks for the reply and for the suspension the thing is it never did the vibration before now i feel it more i dunno maybe i am just to paranoid with my 8 lol
