So I think I have something wierd going on and I can't figure out what it is. First, when I accelerate from 1st gear (especially if I'm coming out of reverse from backing up) I get this slight ticking sound in my front left side of my wheel well...? I've also noticed lately that when I hit any decent sides bumps in the rode, my shock on that side is making a "sss" sound from being compressed (or at least that's what I think it is). I haven't had any issues before so do I need to return everything to stock (intake, bov, test pipe) before taking to dealer or is their a dealer that won't mind?

I would think that Burt wouldn't care about the mods. The possible suspension problem could not be caused by any of the mods you listed so that you should have no worries about.

Clark at Sill-TerHar would be happy to look at the vehicle tomorrow around lunch as it is now and let you know if you would need to de-mod anything to keep it under warranty. The accelerating problem sounds like the TCS kicking in a little. See if you can make the noise with the DSC turned off. Let me know if you would like me the set the app for you to see Clark.

Thanks Nick. I know Clark (he prob doesn't know me) as I bought my old 3s from Sil-Terhar. I've only been in to the "quick lane" for oil etc. and haven't had to inquire about warranty work. Tomorrow sucks (meetings) and I'm n/a wed/thurs. Maybe next week? Can I PM you over the weekend?
