Suspension + Whistling Sound
 
Hey guys ok two question for all of you i know there was a recall for the 2004 on the bolt joint for the car or so i have a 2006 and i have only 7000km on it and i noticed that when i go over little bumps sometimes i feel a little vibration in the steering wheel which doesnt feel normal started to happen now it feels like when u drive an older car that has the supsension all loose and stuff u know what i mean the second thing is when i drive my car on low revs under 3000rpms and add the gas pedal to speed it its almost like a whistling sound u hear for a bit and the engine sounds when u have ur windows closed like example when u have ur car in a low gear older cars get that engine gargling sound like they have not enough power on the gear so i dunno is this normal

if u've never had a sports car before, the 8 has sport-tuned suspension, so u will feel the bumps. it's perfectly normal. (the price for tight-cornering and handling.)

i have an 05 and my engine just started whistling during idling too. it never did it before, so i did a SEARCH on the forum and found several threads on this topic. and, everyone here pretty much said that the whistling sound is a natural characteristic of the RENESIS engine and is perfectly normal.

so, it sounds like your car is perfectly fine. :)
