- I have an 85 Dodge Omni/2.2L front wheel drive, 112K miles.
-
- When driving straight ahead, the engine noise is a little louder than
- it ought to be. This is in comparison to the engine noise when I am
- turning left. It feels quite good then, no tension. As I bring the car
- back to straight ahead, the noise increase. It gets positvely
- annoyingly and scarily loud when I turn to the right, and the noise
- "feels" more "tense."
-
- I was driving on many miles on winding road yesterday, and I got to
- experiment a little with it. Turns out that when I apply the brakes,
- the noise drops quite noticebly (sp)!
-
- Any clues as to what this could be?
