Hi All,

I have just purchased a 325i, yr 02. After test driving the car... i acknowledge a high weasel sound when i press the accelerator hard... is it normal??? It is quite clear from outside the car..

Can anyone give me some suggestion... and i am new to this thread...

thanks...

I had the same problem not to long ago...u might want to check your power steering pump or belt tensioner...get a long screw driver and press it to check which is giving the vibration...
