Well... the car is running, but I haven't gotten a break. I think I finally have a tune that I can pass emissions with. I'm all out of legal temporary registration permits. My front passenger power window regulator broke last week (fixed a couple days ago).
Now I'm getting a squeal sound... I'm not yet sure if it's the tranny, clutch, or turbo. Along with that, I also have a "zzzzz" sound... almost like a blower whine. I think the two sounds are related... they're both coming from the drivers side of the engine bay. I'm also pretty sure it's tranny related as it only makes the sounds when I'm moving.
So right now, I'm only driving it when I know I can do a decent drive cycle... and end at my step-bros shop so I can scan it and see which sensors are still not ready. But I am hoping to pass emissions this week so I can get a permanent license plate again. What I fear is that the car will be parked for a while after that... until I have time to figure out what's making those noises.
