ok From the research I have done this is the most common answer I have found to the problem. so next question is, can you just keep driving it the way it is if its only noise ? or do I have to go get it fixed ? just about every friends euro I have been in has had this noise at some stage when taking off up a hill. So I think its a very common problem. can anyone give me a cost estimate to fix ? I'm guessing $1000 bucks plus for labour and like 100 bucks for the part as is always the case. ??
