Subject: Re: Sound from door pillar


At least I am not a sole sufferer. My Wifes' 1986 Toyota Carinas' drivers seat belt still works perfectly, with good tension. Since the earlier posting, the Saab drivers belt has become quite loose when released from use,often catching in the door when leaving. Poor for a three and a half year old car,with just 50,000 mileage. I will have a word or two with the local agent , but with little hope. Thanks ps. I look forward to the gearbox noise (auto)! just sid "Lineone" <lineonenopsamone.org> wrote in message news:kiyg9.96$rO5.669nopsamfep1-win.server.ntli.net... : Yes, I get a rattle too.
