Hey guys,

Just bought an 05 Coupe w/ NAV/PREM/SUS/DG last night and LOVE IT!!! But...Today Im driving around notice a noise coming from the front tires I guess. Its making a clicking/chugging sound when the car is rolling, but when I step on the brake to slow down the sound goes away and just comes back when I start to accelerate again. I brought the car back to the dealership and they confirmed the same sound and were somewhat suprised themselves. No one was there in service at the time so they wanted me to keep the car there and take a loaner. They are gonna look at it on Monday, but they were saying that because it could have been sitting there for awhile, there may be some rust on rotors or something loose. I took the car with 14mi. and have put on 100mi. (1 day). I shouldnt be having problems with this so soon!!! Has anyone had this similar problem with the car whether it was right after they bought it or even after and if so what is it? I friggin pissed as it is right now and I dont want to get upset for no reason. I'm thinking I should ask for a new car if its something serious or just let them fix it. Please share any advice/opinions/solutions to my problem...THANX!!!!!!

 

Hey I'm having a similar problem for a while now too. You can generally hear it after letting go of acceleration right? Does it sound like your rotors are warped or unbalanced tires?

 

Yeah, and for it to be like that with only 120 miles on it is not good. I guess I'll find out the scoop tomorrow. Have you taken yours in yet? What have they said?

 

...Also the wierd thing is that I didnt hear this when I took it off the lot. It wasn't till the next day when I had 80-90 miles on it. So I dunno what to think???

 

No I haven't brought it back to the dealership yet. Please keep me informed, if they can figure out your problem, I'll bring it back

 

Yeah I had the dealership look at the car and they tightened the suspension bolts underneath the car and the noise went away. They said they have never had that issue before, but also said that sometimes new cars can have some minor problems from shipping and sitting at the dealership. I dunno about that one, but I'm happy its fixed now, so now I can enjoy the G. Go have yours checked out and lemme know what happens...
