    Sounds like turbo spooling up

    I confirmed I don't have that retarded ass devise on my muffler. I had a sit on the engine while I took a drive and confirmed the sound is not from there. We did confirm the sound is coming from a leak in the exhaust.

    Sounds like turbo spooling up

    ONLY when accelerating really fast starting at around 2800 to 4000 RPMS does my 00 Protege 1.8 whistle like a turbo spooling up. Starts soft and low then whistles louder as the gear/rpm gets higher then starts over soft to loud in the next gear. Remember it only happens when driving it hard...

    Damn Dome Light!

    My dome light won't illuminate when opening the doors. It will only work manually. This is not a huge deal really but I am just amazed that we can't figure this out.

    Protege Door Panels

    The more thought I gave the less I case about the texture haha I'm just anxious to do it now. Yes, I think you're right it will probably soften in the areas it is touched/rubbed often.

    Oh actually good idea I think I will. I'll post pics & notes of the process and as a bonus toss in the headliner experince & pics. My only concern is that like the headliner the fabric/vinyl paint will make the door fabric feel stiff and rough.

    Protege Head Liner!

    By the way when I picked up the paint at Advanced Auto Parts even the cashier raved about how well it worked on his carpet. I assume if you use it on your carpet then it will smooth out the hard texture after your feet and mats hit it a few times.
