New Day New Problem...

I mean seriously it seems like theres a new problem everyday. I love this car but it sure as hell is making it hard for me. Actually 2 things happen today.....1 it feels like somthing is loose in the front suspension i didnt get to jack it up yet so im not sure what it is.....for some crazy reason i hope its not a strut......2 when i back up i get this humming sound and it feels like it bogs when i drive in r. anybody have anything similar? thanks

Right rear caliper sticks on mine, would explain both the sound and the "bogging". Just feels like it takes an extra little bit for it to get moving?

First dealer I took it to said that's "normal", but it's going in to a second one hopefully next week so we'll see.

LOL, yeah, damn blue cars.

Yeah, mine will sometimes (though rarely) stick in first as well. Once you get rolling though it seems to release. It shouldn't do it at all, it should be a warranty repair. The dealer I took mine to the first time was a bunch of wackos (that took a customer for a test drive in it!).

Once i pull the wheel off how can i tell if its sticking. take the caliper off and see if the brake piston compresses and depresses?
