Re: grinding sound in rain - '91 200q
No the entire car shakes, father thought the car was misfiring or
loosing a cylinder. The vibrations came from somewhere down the centerline
of the car, near the gearbox or driveshaft. Very scary the first time it
happened when my father was trying to get us away from a possible tornado!
The car would only go 45mph and there was the beginnings of a funnel cloud
behind us on the highway. My father was severly pissed as the car had 3,000
miles on it. The dealership never figured it out and my father should have
gone after them big time. Lemon laws applied to our 200q20v since the
problem was presented more than 3 times to the dealers and was never
properly fixed.
Thinking back to those days when the car was new, what a ride in dry
weather!
Thanks!
