  • Is it me?

    Lost all confidence in my car. It pulls like a train even without pedal box, it's smooth, average mpg is climbing...... but it doesn't seem right. Got it in my head there is a low dull noise when I accelerate, and when come off the throttle. Even with music on I'm convinced I still here it. Feel like everytime I drive the car it's going to go wrong. Never felt like this before. Traction control kicks in more often in the wet now, everytime it does I think somethings gone wrong.
    Can honestly say if I was test driving this car now, I wouldn't buy it.
    Hope this feeling goes soon, but being saying that for weeks now.
    Considering a trip to Wilsons, see what they have got Insignia or Astra wise. Can't really afford to change, but hate this car right now.

    There it's out .

                          That's a given . Just don't get on reversing vauxhall for some reason. Years of vans, towing jetters and pumps etc, yet spin onto my drive in a vauxhall I'm done in

                              Talk to it, struggle to get in and drive it right now .

                              Maybe should just turn music up louder then might forget about how different it sounds .

                              Sounds daft, but it's like some sound proofing had gone missing, it's that sort of sound. Just worried if I ignore it then something will happen. But on other hand it's just cost a fortune so I should make the most of it.
