thts cause its locked

it will be having final touches to it im guessing

fredjudd · 28th September 2006, 19:42

Oh right, ok. I am getting fed up of my sqeak thats all!

hesslevtr · 28th September 2006, 19:46

what squeek mine didnt squeek before mine rubbed through

all you have to do is bend the pipe out of the way

fredjudd · 28th September 2006, 19:50

really? its that simple? will it stay out of the way when you leave it though?

Also, when its stationary the pipe is not where near the beam so how can it rub? but the pipe outer is begging to fray so I assume it is rubbing somehow.

bend it up wards

as your car is moving down the road it goes up and down and rubs

fredjudd · 28th September 2006, 19:53

ok but it does it when i am just turning around ie to park going very slowly surly it cant be moving that much crawling along?

hesslevtr · 28th September 2006, 19:54

is that when it squeeks

fredjudd · 28th September 2006, 19:55

yep and its speed related, so if i turn going slightly faster the sqeak frequency speeds up.

what size wheels do you have and how low

fredjudd · 28th September 2006, 20:01

standard wheels, standard suspension....

this is what worries me could it be that the previous owner had it lowered and caused the damage to the pipe and this noise I am hearing is something different?

hesslevtr · 28th September 2006, 22:02

my mates is standard and has been rubbing but not as much as mine did

i think the squeek could be something else

Billog_VTR · 28th September 2006, 22:48

There french!! the squeeking could be coming from anywhere!! lol

My fucking CV boot was hanging off. Changed it for a new one and clip earlier. Sqeak gone now! All I need to do now is change my bottom engine mount. Doesn't look to hard from the haynes manual but anyone actually done it?
