Typical dealer troubleshooting - replace first, and investigate later. Such a waste of $$.
Did you hear the whine at all times, when at a stop, or when moving? Did it seem to change pitch with road or engine speed? |

No, only heard it at low rpm's, around 2-3k. Do not hear at stop or in park. Yes it did change pitch with rpm.

It's not too terribly loud. The only reason I heard it was going up our parking ramp at work. Garage in semi-enclosed so can hear most noises. In hte garage I can hear it with the windows closed but out in the open I cannot.

My SA said he was just going off what the lead tech had told him. Car is still under warranty so no cost to me.

I just had my exhaust replaced under warranty as well. Last weekend I was hearing what sounded like a tin can being kicked from the rear of the car. It was only heard when pulling away from a stop or going in reverse.
Anyway, the SA reported an issue with the baffle, so the whole thing was replaced. |
