Blue is sick

I took my mCS into the shop for a sound that was very scarey. When I heard it I thought it was something hitting an electric fan due to the fact that the sound did not change when i slowed or revved the engine. The sound would occure when I hit a pot hile or hard dip that both tires would land in hole and it would last for no determined amount of time. Anyonehave any problems like this?

Roo,

Sorry to hear Blue is sick. Not sure what would be doing that unless the power steering fan on the bottom of the car came loose or something else came loose. Have them check it out and let us know what you find.

You didn't run over any road debris that might have caused trouble?

Potholes are also very bad and harsh.

If I remember correctly, there is a fan that is positioned horizontally under the engine. That fan is supposed to be for the power steering. Also, did you check your power steering fluid level? Another member has their car in for service as there was a leak from the PS and it made a mess of everything! Car is expected to be in for service for 1 week.
