Re: tires and liftkits (long)
I swung by Cole¡¯s a few years ago as i was passing through Colorado. He put a set of Bilsteins and a set of his spacers on my 2003 MV. Even adjusted my torsion bar. Made a huge difference in the

Re: Antenna
Have you tried replacing the door lock actuator? I had a similar problem with my drivers door. Turned out to be a passenger door actuator. Brian

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
Rotate your wheels and see if the noise follows.? Swap the suspected one to the most opposite spot.

Objet : [eurovanupdate] Antenna
Once, I had that issue with my locking doors on my ¡®97EVC. As I remember, when I tried to lock them with my Wireless remote, the knobs began to go up and down and I wasn¡¯t able to do anything.

Re: Antenna
I experienced the same issue, so I disconnected the drivers side actuator power completely from my ¡®97 EVC. I actually prefer it that way. Very very difficult to get locked out :-) Roger wrote:

Re: Antenna
Thanks for your input but this did not solve the problem. I took everything apart today and the issue seems to be the following. Once the car is locked by either the passenger side or the driver side

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
I have the same issue very infrequently on my 95 EVC, added the lift kit and Bilstein's about 45 years ago, and new drive axels last fall, that's when I noticed the issue arising.

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
Thanks for all the info and tips: - nail or rocks in the tire? Unlikely, since the noise is very sensitive to throttle position (and goes away entirely if you are decelerating). - which side is the

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
I might just replace the left axle to keep the whole repair maint thing balanced and then eliminate the CV joints once and for all as a possiblity.

Re: tires and liftkits (long)
We have had a lot of msg's re tire options and lift projects. No question the $2500 combination kit is very effective, looks swell and improves performance. However, there is a cheaper, simpler, and

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
I had a similar problem, no easy to pin-point right from left sometimes... our ears can be fooled. In my EVC, I heard it from the "right side" ? (I thought). ? But in fact it was coming from BOTH CV

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
We had a (possibly) similar noise on another vehicle that turned out to be caused by a nail in a front tire. I suspected this possibility from the outset but I was unable to find the nail and neither

Re: Help Solve the Mystery!
I know this is a long shot but do you have wheel covers or hubcap things? Pop those off. Ours come loose and start to make various sounds. Also maybe the sheet metal shield behind the rotor? But that
