Yeah, it always sounded like the landing gear going up on a plane.

My car: brake rotors (previous owner), 1 headlight motor, 1 T-top flew off (while latched), 1 window motor. Oh, and I changed out the carrier to 3 series for performance, but it was noisy and probably on the way out. I was so busy fixing things I couldn't mod. Still love the car!
