First off, For one reason or another..my ms3 has been back to the dealer a DOZEN times for one reason or another.

A few weeks ago my car started to make a awful grinding noise when I started it. Once the car started it was fine. Turns out something about the cam sensor went bad and messed up the timing of my motor causing the grinding noise..problem fixed(after 4 days)..

Now again discovered more noise a few days ago while on the highway withour the radio on..which after much fuss..now realized its not comming from inside but outside and is comming from my engine..I know this bc I can hear the noise only when I give gas.

Long story short..The car is going back to the dealer!! I love my ms3 but it has had some bugs in it since day one. I have to admit it. Maybe I just got a unlucky car but this is major BS. I hate driving piece of shit rentals.

If this doesn't stop..I might consider something else and sell my car.
