Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have repeatedly requested my vehicle to be checked for the following problems: 1) the engine nocks excessively whenever going up hill. 2) the vehicle instermittently emits a high pitched electronic beeping sound similar to a tuning fork. it sounds similar to sounds coming from personal computers. this sound occurs in conjunction with the nocking of the engine. i have requested the vehicle be inspected by the dealer on numerous occasions, but they claim they can't duplicate it. i pointed out to them that there is a service bulletin on the car's powertrain control module (pcm) but they claim they unverified problem is unrelated to that component. incidentally, the service bulletin number is 96-25-11. the bulletin instructs the technician to reprogram the pcm. thanks. *ak
