Rattling

Post by SimonCorrigan »

Does anyone elses car rattle, squeak and creak? Seems something is rattling behind the dash. Something in boot is sqeaking and its driving me bonkers. I could just turn the radio up but thats not the point - it obviously shouldn't! Anyone else getting the same noises?

So, like you said, i just turn me music up....quite right though its not the point.

Mine had squeeked from the day I got mine. I have taken mine back to the dealers at least 3 times now. To date, I have had a new anti roll bar and bushes replaced. I think that is what I am meaning, but one problem.... It still makes noises!!

Seems like a widespread problem with the 9n, i think i`ve got lucky so far cos mine is smooth and quiet, a big difference from the vts i had, now that bloody thing sounded as if it was going to fall apart french pis# :lol:
