Now with the loud ass leak gone i can hear like 4 or 5 new noises that it used to drown out. I was a lot happier before i eliminated the leak. i have become very close to being obsessed with listening to the engine sounds, the suspension, the bushings, the wheel, the driveshafts, etc... i rarely turn the radio on now. the rattles, creeks, knocks, and shakes are all i can listen to now. Has anyone else fallen into this mode of overly preemtive auditory diagnosing?? or am i just going crazy?   Kevin Hans (Kmhans) New Member Username: Kmhans Post Number: 13 Registered: 01-2004 Posted on Tuesday, February 03, 2004 - 11:59 pm:    I think you've got a case of carbon monoxide withdrawl!   Victor (Vabiro) Member Username: Vabiro Post Number: 189 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2004 - 12:33 pm:    Jason, When I first got my Disco I had a similar experience. With all the problems that Discos were supposed to have I wasn't sure what noises I should be concerned about. After a while I became acustom to them, and those that didn't belong have really stood out. BTW, so far - knock wood - nothing has really been worthy of concern. Good Luck, Victor   Tony Zuniga (Tony23007) Senior Member Username: Tony23007 Post Number: 272 Registered: 05-2003 Posted on Wednesday, February 04, 2004 - 11:29 pm:    Just learn to turn the radio back on!!!
