Thxs Timzcat & BS. Tim got me going in the right direction and Bs for the finishing touch. OMG, after 6-7 hrs of changing items out and doing test, the pins Worked. I can not believe that 2 pins could cause so many problems.............

Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's great that you found it. It's wild that those pins missing would cause such a problem. I'd imagine that the thing lifts up and with a good amount of suction it probably starts to suck that that little piece of weatherstrip into the opening.

I had a car once that someone in the shop had spent a good 8 hours on to find a light scraping noise in the rear on turns at a certain speed. I for the hell of it took the wheel and caliper and everything off and put a straight edge across the two ears that mount the caliper and the ***** was not truely vertical. When you would turn hard the brake pads would drag against the rotor ever so slightly and cause the noise. I replaced the spindle and sure enough the noise went away.

Hey that's cool that you fixed it! It can be a very frustrating and unnerving feeling trying to figure out what is wrong with a car. This is the cool thing about the internet......if you are having a problem someone else is bound to have experienced the same thing and will be able to help. now go enjoy that 290whp beast!!!
