For the strange ehxaust sound at 1600rpm do you mean like a high pitched metallic vibration sound? Kind of hard to explain but I get this noise at low rpm too sometimes, although I think it's normal.

Do you have the parking brake on? If not, apparently the seats will not go back automatically. This happened to me when I first bought the car too. I have no idea why this is the case, but it hasn't happened since.

Re: first warranty service tomorrow

That's strange, because I only noticed it a couple of times while the car had about 500 miles on it and the engine was cold, but now it seems to have stopped. I thought it was normal because it sounded like the exhaust was rattling a little at that rpm, but maybe it's something else. I'll ask next time I go in for my oil change.

Re: first warranty service tomorrow

Did the dealer take a look at yours? It might have just been the exhaust expanding or something, and the car was still new so maybe that had to do with it (?)

I sure hope so :P I heard it slightly this morning when the car was cold, but it's much weaker than before.
