Hi all, guilty of skulking for answers for some time! Bought my LC love -2000yr- in 2007. Now has 178k on it, all getting kids everywhere and my reliable drive of 70+ miles a day to foothills while caring for elderly mom. Now all are gone! Kids to EU and mom to a happier place without memory loss.
Don't want to give up my love LC yet tho!
I had to put off maintenance for past 50k or so while doing all the caring.
1) Where to start that is affordable?
I've not done the serpentine belt due to $$. Last major was 120k.
2) now I have a brand new, sudden Low frequency humm or moan mid-chassis I think? Wasn't there Sunday night. Was there Monday morning. First time ever. Can't hear it outside of car near engine on in P. Hear it inside while driving.
Goes higher w/acceleration in D
Is not heard in Reverse.
Doesn't feel to be part of drive power -- good acceleration as normal.
But oh what a sound!
Ideas please?
I'm sure it's obvious but mechanics, car sounds, and being older female... You know how that goes. Would love to have ideas before they see $$ walking in.
Thanks for all the edu in past!
You guys are great.
