ok so i noticed this a while now., when i turn the wheel to park, a weird sound comes from the steeting , it sounds like the axles or something i have no idea...

also when i accelerate hard, a nasty smell comes , it smells like rotten eggs..

any ideas? thank

 

Burnt clutch? oil leek?

 

ooh forgot to mention ..its an auto

 

rotten egg smell huh? Are you feeling a loss of power?

 

are you sure you didnt fart?

 

Check your power steering fluid level. How long has it been since you changed it?

I drain what I can with a turkey baster @ every oil change, and replace with Valvoline Maxlife Dexron III ATF.

So there is always fresher fluid running through.

 

i was just doing some research , and there is a TSB, for a sulfur smell, it says the cataylic converter needs to be replaced, ..anyone had similar experience?

 

LOL Nice!

but take it to the dealer for the cat..

for the steering wheel, is it at full lock? as in you cant turn it any further? It might be the sound that you are hearing is the typical sound of "strain" of the power steering when at full lock.

 

I'm guessing your car is almost new? The "rotten egg" smell is probably just the engine coating burning off, which is normal for a new car when accelerating harder. It should stop soon once the engine is broken in.

The steering wheel sound is probably the "strain" someone above mentioned. Most cars do this as the steering wheel reaches full lock.

 

hey guys ,well the car is over 1 yr old with about 12k miles...so i think i gotta bring it in for the TSB
