| Last week I notced every so lightly surging in my car on the highway. I'm talking the lightest, most imperceptible type - that only an owner of a car could notice.
At the same time, a small ticking - I'm hoping its just an exhaust leak.
I'm taking it in tomorrow to the Stealership - any tips? Anyone ever had an exhaust leak?

| check the EGR piping for leaks. It wll give you a tick and cause a vaccum leak which could cause the surging | |

| Its the front - front driver's side.
I got paranoid for a second that it was a lifter but I'm sure its not that now.
I guess I'll find out tomorrow! They're giving me a loaner! | |
