It sounds as if it is grinding or as if the track gets stuck at that point. Thanks!  | also search the forums as issues with the cali top have been discussed a number of times. usually seems to be a problem with the motor so there's some decent detail on what to do for those issues. __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles
