you've totally lost me. What am I looking for and where is it?

The second i take my foot off the pedal, or start accelerating, the whistling and grinding stop. It does not do it in neutral. It does do it in the gear just below drive (95 mx-3). It starts at about 30. The sweet spot seems to be 45. Havent been on the highway in awhile so I dont know about speeds ...

yeah silverstar, that's it. I got the brightest ones available. I'll post pictures later tonight but I swear it just looks like they're pointed straight at the ground.

None of these describe the problem in my thread. Whistling only while gas pedal pressed in certain ways. Usually just lightly when maintaining speed. I bottom out a lot because the roads around me are crap. Lately a grinding noise has appeared along side it, under the same conditions. If i take my f...

The struts were recently replaced. As was the right front wheel bearing. This was a very specific chain of events/problems so that's why I made the thread. Its not a wheel bearing noise.

Edit - It's the motor mounts

I replaced the bulbs a while back with the ultra bright Ines you see at auto zone and advanced auto. Do you mean replace the whole thing? Also I'm pretty sure its all plastic. 95 mx-3

I'll say it - I bottom out a lot. Where I work and where my friends live, the roads are crap. I'll come out of a parking lot looking straight down onto the main road, and I'll just hear banging and scraping as I move along. 1) I've been hearing this weird whistling noise, when my radio is off, and m...

My head lights appear to be pointing downward in a way that is making night driving uncomfortable/dangerous for me. I'd say my visibilitty is limited to an absolute maximum of 15 feet, on a straight road, with no other lights (which there are many of in CT). I tried aiming the lights up, but the scr...

Since I got the car a few years ago I've had fairly regular problems with the breaks. The pedal gets pushed down all the way to the floor, and it takes a while to come to a complete stop. That doesnt really sound right for such a light car. Even if I slam it down it just slows down and comes to a st...

aye we know. Man this bolt is seriously the biggest pain in the a-- though. We get like one day a week to work on it, and now we're like half way through the thing.

Edit - It's off.

Edit -It's done, the hell noise is slain.

Those nuts can be almost impossible at times. Some people use dremel tools, cut the nut to remove it. I too used a 5' bar with a 5' pipe on it and my buddy who weights 280lbs bouncing on the end to loosen that nut. Good Luck If you have a 3/4 drive socket and bar it helps. 1/2 inch can break. Yeah,...

We bought a bigger breaking bar, and it broke. the working impact wrench isn't doing much to it. this is insane

the impact wrench we bought was defective, so we're trying again tomorrow I guess. Sigh. It's still lefty loosey on the front nuts right?

Ok, we started attempting to fix it today...having trouble getting the axel nut off. Any special way we're supposed to do this? http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss159/Patass360/IMAG0132.jpg We were using an axel nut socket and breaking bar but the thing just wont move, we're gonna go pick up an im...

How'd you press it out/in? We got the bearing, it was only 30 bucks.
