Replying to: fiddler2500 (May 05, 2009 8:09 pm) Perhaps it is a hydraulic problem in the power steering pump system. Of course check your fluid and perhaps bleed out air bubbles if there are any.   Maybe call Ron Ananian the talk radio car doctor.

Has any of you replaced your driving belt? For those who did, what was the mileage / age at the time of replacement?   Also, how often you replace the in cabin air filter - once a year?   What about tranny fluid - According to the user manual, it say under normal driving condition, change every 60k, but the dealer recommended 30k - it looks and smells perfectly new at 40k, so I want to wait until 60k miles, what do you guys think?
#1089 of 1177 Interior Buzz by peaceofmind1 May 17, 2009 (4:16 pm)
I bought a certified-pre-owned M35 in Dec 2008 with 49,000 miles, after about 4 months I started hearing a high pitched buzz when driving the car over 15 minutes. Ear ringing...headaches. I made 2 trips to the dealer and they could not hear anything..no surprise. The manager asked me when was the last time I had my hearing checked...Wow!!. Frustrated, I invited a neighbor to help me locate the sound. Well, he found the buzz and is was coming from underneath the rear seat and the rear-passanger side wheel well. The problem was a faulty gas pump which is accessed by lifting up the rear seat. The dealer replaced the pump at no cost..and no ...no complimentary oil changes for diagnosing the problem for them.   The second high pitch noise is much more difficult to find. It sounds like a buzz when there is a short in an electrical current/transistor. The noise is much less when I drive with the windows cracked a little. Because the cabin is so air tight it may be a positive cabin pressure issue similar to when your flying, ears ringing and popping. Could the vents for entry and exit of outside air be malfunctioning. Help...peaceofmind.
#1090 of 1177 Computer-Navigation Screen turns black by enofile May 27, 2009 (2:06 pm)
I took my 2006 M35 X in for routine service. Now, every time I put my headlights on, the computer - navigation screen creates a black background that is almost impossible to see. I called the dealership here in Louisville, and of course they have no idea what I am talking about. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Replying to: enofile (May 27, 2009 2:06 pm) I did not opt for the nav system, so this may not be correct. My guess is that the system switches the display to night mode when the lights are turned on verses using a light sensor or the time from the gps. I know just the basic menu displays do that. My handheld device (a Garmin) switches between day and night displays based on the sunrise/sunset program built into it after determining exactly when and where you are....much more accommodating.   I find it dissapointing that they don't use a photosensor to adjust the backlighting and other functions rather than just switching with the headlights. Several cars I've owned did adjust based on ambient light (a Saab and Audi).

Replying to: enofile (May 27, 2009 2:06 pm) It's normal for the M35 navigation screen to move to night mode when the headlights go on. Obviously, your night mode brightness is too dark. You can set the brightness of the screen....or you can set it so it's always in day mode. Read the manual.

#1094 of 1177 Tire Rotation and monitors by finadv Jun 15, 2009 (5:41 am)
If I rotate my tires, does the computer pick up the new placement of the tires, or is this something that needs to be done at the dealer? Replies to this message: osbornkg (Jun 15, 2009 7:11 am) finadv (Jun 15, 2009 11:05 am)

Replying to: finadv (Jun 15, 2009 5:41 am) Don't have to go to the dealer. Computer with pick-up the sensors when you rotate tires. Discount tire in the west rotates tires free of charge. Replies to this message: finadv (Jun 15, 2009 11:05 am)

Replying to: osbornkg (Jun 15, 2009 7:11 am) Thanks! That's what I thought, but wanted to make sure before I did it.
