2 Problems...

First thing is, when I accelerate, there is a soft gringing kind of noise. Could this be the flywheel or a tranny issue?

Its not a harsh noise, and nothing sounds like its falling apart, but when I press the gas I can hear this noise. Its almost like a vibrating type of noise. It only seems to appear when the car is in gear, If I just rev the engine i don't hear it tho.

Second thing, my blinkers aren't working. I hear the flashers but none of the lights accociated with the blinkers work. I'm sure I can track the problem down but was wondering if anyone else has had a problem like this.

Thanks in advance

The grinding could be due to your tranny fluid. Check it or have it checked. I had this problem in my old NA RX7 and if you wait too long it might cost you a new tranny. If your tranny fluid is low than that grinding will occur during acceleration, but not when reving.

thanks for the tip on the tranny... def check that right after work.

And, ya, I checked all the bulbs, they look fine. Its EVERY light associated with the blinkers. Even in the instrument panel and outside. I may buy a couple cheap bulbs just to double check, but I have a feeling its a wire issue. I CAN hear the flashers tho.

I just had to rebuild my light switch for the parking lights... twice!
