how many times do they need to tell you it's normal before you stop taking it in?


I have the same " issue. " Several others in this thread have indicated the same.

I think we all agree it wasn't there at 000 miles and probably are now not sure when it started. I get in the car and it still goes like stink.... no codes are being thrown, and it's still under warranty if anything DOES happen.... so I stopped worrying about it... perhaps you should as well .....



the car whistles at low power on initial startup and it is a little boomy at 2500 rpm (aka " drone"). Sounds like character to me... Consider it a badge of honor... and realize that on a cold start, you might be giving away it's turbo car as the motor has a slight whistle as you bilp the throtle waiting for the light to change with the import car next to you racing it's engine....
