My car is making a weird noise. Whenever I go over 40 mph, there is a knocking noise and my steering wheel shakes, it sounds like its coming from the tire..or somewhere around there. There is no way I would be able to take my over 45 mph. I did get wheel barrings/strut and strut mounts/tyrods and control arms replaced in the front. I just cant understand what else it would be. Can someone give me some ideas, that would make that noise going over 40mph, before I take it in? Thanks a lot!

I have this problem in 2 different cars - a Ford KA and a Peugout 206. In the KA (2004), the drivers floor mat gets soaked after heavy rain. No windows are left open, there is no moisture on the dash or the seats, nor on the door anywhere. But the mat gets soaked. I've layed paper over it to see if it's dripping from under the steering column somewhere, but the paper is dry, and I can't feel any wetness under there. The windscreen fluid is definatly not leaking, or i'd have to refill it every few days, which I don't have to... There is no hole beneath the car for the water to get in through either. The seals on the windows seem fine and there's water in no other place...

Onto the Peugout (1996). The same thing happens to the rear passenger mat. Nowhere else in the car is wet apart from here. It's been in the garage and they suggested the seal on the boot was dodgy, but it's not; if it was then the shelf and seat would be wet.

Anyone have any idea where this water's coming from?

It also has the 327 small block under the hood with a 600 4 barrel carb holly on top. Runs like a top.

I have a 1992 Buick that has always started as soon as I turn the key. Today the past three times I've started it the engine just turns over and over for about 10-15 seconds and then it kicks in and starts. It runs fine once it's started. Why is it acting funny? I also think I smell gas when I get out of it but I'm real paranoid when it comes to things going wrong with my vehicle so that mught be my imagination. What do you think it is and does it sound like something expensive?

I've got a 2000 Honda Odyssey van in my shop right now. I did a timing belt change on it and now the Power steering pump is howling. I didnt remove any lines, all I did was remove the belt to the pump, and the resivior was never removed or spilled. The sound is coming from the pump and I've flushed the system and it went away for a little while and now its back. I've bled the system 3 times now and it comes back after it all cools down. Has anyone had any experience with this problem?

I just purchased an 1997 Ford Explorer, without an instruction manual and I need to know if anyone out there could tell me how I can turn my headlights off automatically by a switch of a button, instead of waiting like 10-20 seconds for them to shut off. This is very annoying to me and I would really be grateful if someone could help me with some mature responses. Thank you so very much!! :)
