My new-to-me '94 100S Avant (FWD auto) is not without
its problems.
- The car hesitates on acceleration. Sometimes it's just a
subtle stutter. Other times a full fledged "I don't want
to go". I need to pull the codes, if it's possible like
it is on the Type 44 200.
- There's a slight shimmy from the steering. I presume out
of balance or out of round wheels and tires. The wheels
look like they've hit a few curbs (kerbs).
- When I first shut the car off, I couldn't get the key
out of the ignition. The owner's manual provided a clue.
The car has to be in Park to remove the key. On my car,
it seems the parking interlock is a bit out of adjustment.
Fiddling with the shift lever trips some switch so I can
remove the key. Is there and adjustment to be made? Or a
switch to be replaced?
I'll have more questions as I put on the miles.
