hi peeps,

i got my new X about 3 weeks ago and lately ive been noticing that for example i were parked and put it on reverse and turn my steering wheel all the way to the left or right and start backing up, i would feel feel and hear this rubbing noise from front of car. wifey says the back, i feel it from front. even my steering wheel would shake a little. i had an evo 8 before and this never happened. is this normal from the X?

Update: I took the car to dealer today and it seemed that it was the transfer case. Seems that my 2010 X is some of few with this problem. Weird.. now I'm in a rental.. this sucks.. btw I gt 1200 miles only...

do you get any whitish smelly smoke coming from under the hood or even inside your car when you turn on your ac? well when i got to the dealer i parked the car and did not turn it on. all of a sudden the tech and i saw the smoke and smell. weird! im still waiting from them about the transfer case and if that made my wheels/or what ever it was rub underneath.

Nope.. If I saw smoke from the car I would have had the car towed to SCM.
