When the 2006 Legacy is in drive and you press the brake, there's a "doo doo" noise from the chassis, and the steering wheel and brake pedal vibrate. Sometimes it's mild, sometimes strong, and sometimes there's no issue at all. Could it be because the brake silencer pads weren't installed properly?

Hey everyone, when you auto park your new GA8 and then start it again, do you hear a creaking sound? I haven't noticed that with other cars. Also, sometimes when braking automatically and the speed is close to 0, I feel the brake pedal jitter downward with a continuous noise. It's happened twice in 7000 kilometers. It doesn't affect the use, but I'm curious. Could this be a sign of a potential future issue?

Has any owner of the 2020 BYD Song PLUS gasoline version encountered this issue? When driving at a speed of 90-110 km/h and applying the brakes, the steering wheel shakes, and both the engine compartment and brake pedal vibrate. What could be the problem?

I have a 2017 V60, and sometimes I hear a clicking noise from the chassis when driving at high speeds. The noise disappears if I lightly tap the brakes. I suspect it might be an issue with the brake system, but I've been to the dealership twice and they couldn't solve it. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Any solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone, when I drive fast and press the brakes a bit hard, there's a thudding sound and the brake pedal feels like it's bouncing. This doesn't happen when I'm driving slowly or pressing the brakes lightly. Is this the ABS system kicking in or is it an issue with the brake pads? Also, regarding the temperature gauge on the dashboard, I remember it used to show two bars as soon as I started the car, right in the middle, but now it takes a few minutes to gradually rise half a bar at a time. Am I remembering wrong or is the coolant level low?

If I add a turbo to a 2.5 Forester, can the transmission handle it? Or should I go for a stage 2 tune? The brake pads definitely need to be replaced, but I'm worried the transmission might not handle it, even though Subaru's transmissions are quite strong.

For your first time driving a 09 Mazda 6, here are some things you might want to consider: 1. **Basic Checks:** Before you start driving, check the fuel level, tire pressure, and ensure all the lights are functioning properly. 2. **Maintenance History:** If possible, review the car’s maintenance history to ensure it's up to date with regular services. 3. **Test Drive:** Take the car for a short drive to see if there are any unusual noises or vibrations. 4. **Visit a Mechanic:** If you're unsure about the car's condition, it might be a good idea to visit a mechanic for a thorough check-up. 5. **Familiarize Yourself:** Get comfortable with the car's controls, like the brakes, accelerator, and steering. Remember, safety first!

I've got a 2022 GTS with over 10,000 km on it, and I've noticed an issue. When I turn the steering wheel all the way while moving forward or reversing, there's sometimes a loud noise from the chassis. It sounds like something is stuck or like a brake squeal. Has anyone else experienced this?

To be honest, I didn’t buy the Corolla out of strong conviction at first. Back in April, I quickly bought a used car from the local market before the Eid holidays. Turned out to be a total disaster. I was in a rush and didn’t have time to go to a mechanic or deal with any hassle, so I drove it for a bit, sold it, and moved on. After that, I decided I wanted to buy something brand new, something I could stick with for 10 years without any headaches. I liked the look of both the Civic and the Corolla. I went to check them out, and while the Civic was really impressive, it was a bit too expensive—so I settled on the Corolla. Overall, the car is smooth and comfortable to drive. But when you're on an incline or waiting at a light on an uphill road, you can feel it struggle to get going—you have to press the gas harder, and the engine gets louder without the car really moving much. The front seats are good, but the rear bench isn’t very spacious. I was honestly disappointed to find that the rear seats don’t fold down, so if you want to carry large items, you’re out of luck. As for fuel consumption—those people claiming 5L/100km, I honestly don’t know how they’re getting that. In the city, I’ve been getting around 6.8 to 7.2, and I’m not a heavy-footed driver. From February 2 to early April, I drove about 4,600 km because I was using it for errands after work and even took a long round trip to Alexandria. One thing I really noticed is that the car doesn’t handle rough roads well—you really feel the bumps. In traffic, sometimes the car shakes a bit when moving slowly around 10 or 15 km/h—not always, but it happens. There's also a faint squeaking noise, like the A/C button is slightly loose—it only shows up on bumpy roads. Still, none of this changes the fact that the car is generally reliable and stable. It drives easily, and honestly, I’m quite content with it—especially after what I went through with that used car. For anyone thinking about getting a Corolla, just be realistic about what you’re looking for. It’s a great car for someone who wants something long-lasting, even if there are a few things that aren’t perfect.
