Perfect description...I know assactly what you mean.

Doesn't make sense...I mean there's some for a few days of driving, but it didn't last long. Lots of drafts inside the car...could be coming from under the dash?

Maybe the car is slowly disintigrating at a molecular level.

Yep, I've had the same problem, only I experienced large pieces of aluminum flying around in the cockpit.

I had a very hard time identifying this debris. At first I thought my car was totally coming apart.....most of the pieces were large enough to put an eye out. These large particals would come flying into the cockpit, hit me in the head (thank god for sunglasses) and then exit out of the vehicle.

It was just recently I was able to obtain a piece of this aluminum when it lodged into the area of my crotch. Damn near took my pecker off!!!

After removing the piece of aluminum and reading the words "Bud Light", I have come to the conclusion that it was nothing more than a beer bottle cap.

God damn it Kumpie..........you are following me next time we get the cars out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope this helps.................
