My wife took her car into Mazda a few months ago because the A/C wasn't cooling properly. They found a hole in the compresser, so replaced it. Ever since then there has been a high pitched noise coming from the engine. It sounds like a dog whistle (it's that high pitched) and lasts about 4 seconds, repeating every 7 seconds. We've taken the vehicle back to Mazda but they can't find out what's wrong. They wanted to replace the fuel pump, and kept asking questions like "Does the noise get louder when you press the accelerator". Mazda can't figure out what's going on so they say that the noise can't be fixed and that we'll just have to live with it.

When we turn off the A/C the noise stops. My wife also says that when she's sitting at a stop light (with foot on the brake) the noise is softer than when she's pressing the gas. We've told all of this to Mazda, but they still can't figure it out. Anyone have any ideas? Should we take the vehicle to a different mechanic?

I mean by myself...I've looked up the data recovery companies, and they all charge $300 and up. This is personal data, not business.

Does anyone else have their screen freeze at 58% loaded when they enter the first set of coordinates?

http://www.volvocars.us/thehunt takes you to the sign up screen instead of into the game. It's 12 after now and I'm wondering if there's some trick to this...or maybe someone is asleep at their computer down in Volvo headquarters.

I believe it's the air conditioner runoff dripping onto the hot exhaust, but wanted to make sure it wasn't a more serious problem. I've never heard a car do this before...

They spent like 80 gagillion dollars on this mission, and now they are visiting a "dwarf planet"? Should NASA reprogram the mission to go to a REAL planet?

We can't use My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas (or Pies depending on where you went to school) anymore...any suggestions on a new mnemonic?
