I believe he is trying to say that there is a noise coming from somewhere in the steering column or dash when he rides of bumps. He had a shaft put in but the problem persisted. Also, the transmission doesn't seem right (?). The car is an automatic.

I kept mine on, it doesn't really make a difference though. Most use I can say is sound deadening and a few seconds of fire resistance (but lets hope you never need that)...

You'll need to upload the file somewhere, I personally use http://xs.to/

Then go into 'User CP' up top and click on 'Edit Signature'. Paste the image URL given after you uploaded into the box and you should be good to go. You may need to attach [IMG] and [/IMG] before and after depending which link you select after uploading..

Didn't work.

Go to the link I provided above, select your file, and click 'Host Image'

You'll get a whole bunch of different links to choose from. Go to the bottom one which says 'Direct Link' . Copy that, and paste it here.

Then put [IMG] before it and [/IMG] after it.

I can see it in your signature just fine, you may have chosen the thumbnail link, which may explain why its quite small unless you wanted it to be that way.
