Alright, this is hard to describe but I will try and hopefully I can get some help tracing this down.
Essentially it seems to feel like a drag. What I am experiencing is intermittently the gas pedal will begin to feel "more stiff". During these times if I release the gas pedal I will slow down faster (without touching the brake) than other times.
I "occasionally", and very occasionally, will hear a metal sound from somewhere up front. It's so intermittent I haven't been able to tell from where I am hearing it.
My brakes work fine, still have good braking power, transmission shifts perfect, etc..
I still have good acceleration, but when this thing crops up my fuel mileage definitely takes a hit.
Thursday I didn't experience this issue and averaged around 21mpg for the day. But yesterday I did experience it, for a better part of my driving, and my fuel mileage dropped to 17.5MPG, which is what is making me think some sort of drag is involved.
Any help would be appreciated.
