STORM Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Hi, I bought my 2007 IS250 back in October of 06....and I have dent from a grocery cart =(, i guess it was a windy day and the cart flew into my car...and it left a pretty big dent almost 4 inches...the good news is no paint came off, but its a pretty clean dent. Does anyone know how I can get this fixed? I went to a few places, but alot of them told me that its too big for PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) and some said that its not worth fixing. Also, if that wasnt enough, I just started hearing noises when im driving...it sounds kinda like pipes not sure how to explain it. Can anyone tell me what it can be? and how I can fix it? Or is it normal, and am I just being paranoid? Help! Storm

Can anyone tell me what it can be? and how I can fix it? Or is it normal, and am I just being paranoid? Does it sound like metal pipes hitting together, like someone blowing through a pipe, or does it sound like someone laying pipe? (Sorry, had to :P ) Do you hear this all the time, or is it only when accelerating, decelerating, going around a corner, hitting a bump, etc?

Check out this YouTube video:Remove Car Dent With Airduster Don't know if it will work in your case, but it's worth a try...
SW03ES Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Keep getting some estimates with PDR, I've seen them do some pretty big dents. 4 inches isn't that big.

Usually after accelerating, and it sounds kinda like someone blowing through a pipe lol...and lately its been sounding like something is hitting against the bottom of the car when i hit the breaks too, its not all the time though.
