i was getting a clunking noise and feel threw the floor and pedals and steering wheel of car . you could find it turning and going straight. slow speeds and NOT so ruff road conditions it appeared . turns out they replaced my >> E7700 intermediate steering shaft. part number # 25913680.... i guess normally $170 cdn dollar part ????
next is to get rid of heavy steady ping under load / loaded car with weight . like me , 2 winter tires with steel rims accross back seat and 2 more side by side in the trunk. 215/60/16 size.
i have been running last 2 fill top line 91 octane gas . with one small bottle of STP octane boost / cleaner in first ESSO tank .
2nd tank ( now still 3/4 full ) is SHELL high octane gas with 150ml bottle or gasline anti freeze / water remover.
that shell 91 octane tank is still 3/4 full so not sure if they will hear ping tommorrrow ( UNLESS ) they load the car up. because you rarely and barely heard it with out a load in car.... what do you guys think about the ping thing kilometers only 48025
