Hi all- I have an '85 900 sedan with a few minor issues. #1- Whenever I am in a low, rough idle, there is a loud clanking sound coming from underneath the car. Sometimes I hear the clanking when shifting gears- sometimes not. I suspect the exhaust system, but everything looks tight. #2- The headlight switch light on the dash is out. Is there an easy way to replace it? It looks like I need to remove the entire dash to replace this bulb. Is this correct? #3- Whenever I have the lights on and I brake- the brakelights go dim. If I have the turn signal on and I brake, the turn signal actually stops while the both rear lights do this weired dim blinking thing. I've checked all the bulbs and replaced some...I thik maybe one of the double filamints (?) may be bad (dim?) but I've used two different bulbs and the same results. Any help? Thanks in advance- Skot
