If you have never had one, you cant begin to know how wonderful they
ride and drive. Yes, they do have alot of gadgets but I have never
really had too much trouble with the ones I have had.

Just another classic publicity stunt.
But, seriously, who came up with the idea to drive a car around the world?

No, I haven't, and don't bring one down - I don't need something to
start the lust again. I've got my brace of 2.5 turbos, and I'm happy
for now ---

On my 140 diesel, it has the belt tensioner rattle, worse when cold. I
put a brand new one on. It still does it. I tried a different spring,
still does it. Would the shock cause this?

next time you are up, I wont let you drive my 140 diesel. Afterward,
you will find a 124 diesel to seem like a POS (except for the superior
fuel mileage thing).

I'd think it was one of the accessories dragging the belt --

That's what I thought, too. Especially hard to believe, though, that the
French would accept such a bastardized sizing system - the imperial part
of it, that is.

Well why I pry on it up (which I believe lets tension off) it goes away?
Does that help any?

That was my first instinct but the shock could be a problem too. Accessories
like water pumps can cause intermittent vibrations one might think was
suspension or tire related!
