Off for Warranty Work
Well I took my car in for some nagging problems while they do the airbag recall. I am having the following looked at.
1) Passenger door rattle when Shaker 500 is on, and not loud either. (TSB on this)
2) Emergency brake handle is loose, not sure if anyone else has this problem??
3) Clutch squeaks and "clicks" when pressed down. I don't think this is normal can any other manuals weigh in?
I like my service guy, but I am always a little nervous taking it in. I hate to have to be so **** as to check every bit of the car for dents, scrapes and the like. Anyways anyone had any of the above problems fixed?

you know, my clutch pedal has always clicked when depressed too... i always thought it was a button or sensor of some sort, because I noticed when the clutch is not depressed the engine will idle at some rpm, then when I depress it the idle rpm will go down a bit. for example... if I take it out of gear and coast to a stoplight say, the idle RPMs sometimes go up to about 1000, whereas when i depress the clutch pedal, the idle RPM goes back to normal ~750.

i fyour worried about dents and dings fro the dealer do what i do....1st i always take my car in after it has been detailed.....all the guys at my dealer marvel at the cleanliness of my ride at 42000 miles.....then like me make sure everyone at your dealership knows your al ittle b**ch about your ride...i.e. they know that i know of every little mark acratch scrape and ding that is or is not on the car......in fact my service guy nine times out of ten lets me dirve it in and out....he knows that i know every inch of my ride inside and out.....once they know you pay attention to that stuff and bring your car in looking new they will get the poinit and a dispute about simething such as a ding or scracth wont be an issue if it happens.....my bumper got dinged doing some work at my dealer..my guy knew it wasnt me...and knows i rarely if ever park on the street.....they took car of the ding they did no problem...and now they are even more carful....i really like my dealership too...they are good people there.....they treatme and my car right...remember if your not happy with service atone dealer go to another...nothing says you have to do service where you bought the car, im just lucky to have a good dealership to deal with ....and if they ever go south i got three more on backup....however i doubt ill have to go that route....if they were gonna do me wrong it would have probably happened by now...my 2 cents/
