Ok first when I start my car there is a humming noise coming from the radio speakers for 30 to 45 secs then it quits....What in the hell could that be?????? Second, when I start the car and take off if i press the gas 1/2 way it chuggs like it will die at 3500 to 4000 rpms, but if i release the gas and let it shift to 2nd it will run fine after that....But it only when the car first starts....And finally 3rd, Air Ride suspension........When it is cold outside the front suspension will drop to where the wheel wells are almost on tire but the back stays the same height...But if it is warm out side the car sits at the driving height for 2 or 3 days before dropping....Another WHY THE HELL IS THAT?!?!?!?

Any explanations will help...Thank you
 
RE: Questions about my Mark!!!!

Let me take a stab (guess) at these.

1. This is an electrical noise (posible bars wire or such) that is picking up your air pump om your air ride system.

2. This can be caused by sticky IMRC's that need cleaning (Seafoam treatment). Or you need to change your tranny fluid, and update your accumulators.

3. This is the signs of the need to replace your old air bags with either new or rebuilt struts, or go to the airless strut system some folks are running. Your current struts have small leaks at the creases which makes the strut appear ok, but it is not. It may open these up more based on contraction of the bag in cold weather, but either way you have leaky bags if they only stay up several days. Best to replace them soon before you fry a pump and more.
