My 98 SC has 125K miles on it. Except for the Viscous drive being replaced twice, it has been a wonderful car. In the last few months I have taken it in to the dealer for a rattling sound occuring during the initial phase of light acceleration from a standstill. The dealer diagnosed it as a failing alternator and replaced it. The rattle prevailed. Then he replaced the turbo relief valve and secondary air valve tube. The rattle prevailed. Then he replaced the wheel hub and bearing. The rattle prevailed. I am tired of his replacement style of mechanics. Anyone have a similar problem or idea?
