This was some time ago.
Let me inform you that my last grinding was about 5 weeks ago, June 10.
So, maybe the dealer was right telling me that there was no vacuum leak and no visible problem with vacuum solenoids or locking hubs. He said there is a chance that there was some grease, which happens sometimes with new cars as sort of manufacturing process leftover. He has cleaned it and blowed it through. It is early to be 100% sure and make a statement, but I hope that was it. No grinding since.
