So, saw the fastone, and we could bareley get the sound to duplicate. I heard it a tiny bit and fred heard it once. The rain was making it a PITA.

Stuff it could also be:
-Road noise (it does tend to happen near the same spots every day.)
-echoes from the front of the cabin (ie engine, turbo) bouncing off the vertical rear window and back at my head.

should have a good friend drive it for a day and see if they hear anything or with you for a few hours, its happened to me before i started hearing things and got real paranoid about what could be wrong had my buddy drive it for a few hours he heard some little things that well an old car like mine will make but your 04' should technically be solid!! just an idea...

I'll spend the next couple days driving with the radio off. I may also trade cars with al for a day, so she can do just that.

Thanks for the idea greg.

what a pita. So how'd it go down at the county clerk's?

Yeah, I've seen those stickers - I think it's rally something.com, I forget exactly. But same place where they have the "pray for rain" stickers I think.

anytime sir hope all turns out good, worst case you bring it to a dealership have them drive it, can't beat trained mechanics that have been dealing with subarus for god knows how long!!

Didn't hear any noise at all today.

And the freakin' town clerk wasn't there at 4:55 yesterday! I guess I'll call today to make sure he'll be there for his posted hours.

OH MY GOD!!! Today, before work, I went outside and found my tire was flat. Re-inflated it and it seemed to hold pressure. Couldn't find a hole. Held it all day, when I got home, i looked and saw a screw head sticking out of my tread. Pulled the screw and patched it.

It was a 2" long BOLT. Complete with washer. I thought I felt some vibration in the steering...

This is NOT my week!.

Ha, that was the issue huh.? Didn't see it at work but then, didn't look hard. Well at least you were able to patch it

dibblejr · « **Reply #38 on:** October 25, 2007, 12:08:01 PM »

Thats one hell of a bolt.

FastfreddyRs · « **Reply #39 on:** October 25, 2007, 03:52:22 PM »

MAN, THERES THAT BOLT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!!!!

deadlydave · « **Reply #40 on:** October 25, 2007, 05:22:33 PM »

hehe. I'm thinking that that may have been the cause of the vibration. From the damage to the head of the bolt, it looks like it was on the car for a while. I haven't heard anything since, and the noise was speed, not engine rpm dependent.

probably from the tower's place lol. If it makes you feel any better, I'm getting scammed for almost $400 from a nabisco member.

That is teh suck. Gave them $$ and didn't get the item?

Cholo · « **Reply #43 on:** October 26, 2007, 02:33:53 PM »

yep. Guys seemed cool and all, gone to basic training for the Air Force on Wed (pretty sure). I started the dispute w/paypal and added the problem to the post on nasioc, but we'll see what happens. I have his name, email, and city where he lives (supposedly). I guess if Paypal doesn't get me my money, I'll be taking a trip. The thing that pisses me off more is that I was buying it for my brother who just started college, so figured he could use a laptop. Then I get hosed.

There is a full moon this evening, Harvest Moon i think...
Maybe that explains mysterious towing jobs, fines, a bolt with a washer in a tire and a serious hose job !!!

deadlydave · « **Reply #45 on:** October 26, 2007, 07:34:32 PM »

you just may be right. As long as the damned pedal assembly comes out and goes in all right tomorrow.
