Obnoxious whiny noise coming from passenger seat. Time to trade-in?

UGH! I have tried everything I can think of.

An incredibly annoying sound is coming from the passenger seat area. The sound is amplified when I am on a two-track and what some may consider "lost."

The horrendous whining even continues when I am home and in bed. I try my best to ignore it to no avail.

Worse yet, it is very difficult to turn on and when it is turned on it still runs cold. It used to do donuts and all sorts of tricks. Now it just putts around and stalls.

It is so bad I am considering trading in for a younger model. Maybe even look at overseas models from a foreign country.

My cousin has a foreign model, I asked him if I could try it out. Now, he won't even speak to me.

Has anybody had any luck trading in? Or should I pay for a rental first?

 

This thread made me check my calendar to make sure it wasn't Friday

 

LOL, funny way of talking about your wife or girlfriend.

 

Trade it in on a "Pro" model.

 

So many chicks are “escorts” now, plenty of tires to kick around

 

cheaper 2 keeper

 

I've known of similar cases. Trade-in value is typically extremely poor. As a matter of fact, it could actually cost you a lot of $$$. Can't you just junk her?

 

If it has tits or wheels it's gonna be trouble.

You can buy new wheels for the current model and enjoy the upgrade.
If you buy new tits for the current model, she'll upgrade.
Swap wheels as often as you like.
OEM tits only or buy pre-modded only.

 

Go with the hookers and coke.

 

I have read "if it flies, floats or f***s - rent it".

 

You sure it’s not an echo?

 

My wife and I got a lot of chuckles from this post.

 

Not all heroes wear capes.

 

Rent before buy.

Also, the foreign models have hidden costs. I know a guy who got an eastern European model. Cost him 2 houses and his job. Talk about hidden costs!

 

Could be driver error…

 

Some foreign versions are very nice, specifically Asian.

Although, you must be extremely careful with selection.

Some are only fine until they have access to your $$, then.......
Some are insanely jealous of other versions.
Some are complete dependent.
Some are intensely controlling.

Some are incredibility beautiful.

Think Thailand, Japan, China, Philippines, but you MUST get away from the cities.

Suggest you rent several versions first. Start with massages.

 

Lubrication with beer wine, or spirits can help for short periods but in some cases makes the noise even worse. Stronger lubricants like Xanax and Seconal will work better but finding a qualified mechanic that will sell them is tough. You can always get a replacement but that is really expressive. Often more than half of everything you own! Have you tried just leaving it at home? Your rig will work fine but then your maintenance costs between trips can be unsustainable.

 

Be careful of the Tai models, You might get an accessory you didn't order.

 

Be careful of the younger models. It seems over the years they have become more needy.
