yeah i just called my tuffy near by...i hate to drive it now that the knocking has started. But they said they'd inspect and estimate me for free. So anything else i should watch for when i bring it in to them?

Uhm...we would prefer you don't shoot either. We can psot pictures of rice if you Must shoot at a car to relieve your frustration.
But seriously, I wish you better luck than you've had so far.

Again, tho, good luck! I really hope we are all over-reacting!!!

well the guy at tuffy only heard my car for about a second before he diagnosed. Yep lower end...thus bearing. He just picked up a used 3800 and said i can do that but...i dont have the money or the time. I'll prolly just end up driving it until it dies and then buy/use a friends old car he has until i can afford a new car. Unless a forum member will make me an offer i cant refuse for my 95 green SSE (sig car) but alas she is very sick
