Has anyone experienced any of these problems? My dealer seem to always say that us normal, ad I know it isn’t.

1) When turning there is a bump from the front end as though a strut or something of that nature as come loose or broke.

2) The compressor is making a humming noise. When you turn it off the noise stops

3) When accelerating around 2000 to 2500 RPMs there is a vibration coming thru the steering wheel. Feels as though the car is struggling from the front end especially accelerating from a dead stop on an incline

Thanks

1) could be a c.v. joint, but I haven't heard of lr3's having problems with these.
2) definitely normal, it'll hum to refill the air tank and occasionally "fart" when car is off to self level.
3) mine had that same vibration while accelerating through those rev's in 5'th or 6'th gear while doing 72-75mph on the hwy. It drove me crazy. Dealer did a tranny software update which helped a little, but after 2-3k miles, it went away by itself. Dealer said it could've been due to the ethanol percentage in the gas. After a while, the computer adjusts to it.
