Its nither of those 2 items. If I do not have the A/C on it obviously doesnt have a sound LOL. If I turn it up to the slowest setting it sounds like a constant ticking, it is coming from the blower motor compartment under the dash on the passenger side. Some days it can barely be heard, and some days I have to turn up the radio at like 35+ to not hear the ticking. I know as soon as a find the problem its going to be something so freakin simple to change, but I know its inside the blower otor compartment. I am going to take the glove box out and try and find it today. I will keep ya posted.

So I had my stock springs/struts on my car and put raceland coilovers on for a day. Today I took them off and went back to my stock springs and struts. Well all corners sit even except the front left. Any ideas on what it could be? It also pulls to the left a little when I'm driving straight. I'm doubting its a sagging spring considering they were just on and fine thursday. Let me know what you guys think I'm taking the strut and spring to make sure it seated correctly. Thanks for any tips.

Its probably the blower motor itself. Just drop it out of its hole and turn it on.
Mine was doing the exact same thing. Replaced the blower motor assembly.. problem solved.

Front left has always been lower on my car. My guess is because of the constant weight being in the drivers seat + the fact that the transmission is shifted slightly to the drivers side of the car.

there are 2 jacks in the center console.
the one that plugs into the top of the ipod will not charge it and only allows you to control it through the ipod.
the one that plug into the bottom of the ipod lets you control it through the headunit and charges the ipod

I do have the ipod plugged into the port that you can plug in the bottom of the ipod ,but nothing is working from the head unit, i tried a friends iphone but a mesg showed on the iphone that said you can't controll the iphone from it. So i'm not sure if it's my ipod or if the head unit is not working correctley?

Thats what I figured but I made myself paranoid messing with the suspension. My cars wandering to the left a bit. I switched my fronts to the back and visa versa so I'm assuming it's because of the change. Fronts were about 60% rears are about 90%.

$1200 for just wheels? or wheels and tires?

if its for just wheels, why not just get a nice set of used REAL rims that are high quality?
