Now this may be a shot in the dark but was wondering if the N75 is supposed to make a clicking noise. Lastnight could here a strange clicking noise and limited it down to the area at the top of the tip so tried the old screw driver to your ear trick on several compoinents an hey presto the N75...

I have recently started to experience two noises on my car. Its a petrol 1.4 and has FK coilovers fitted. Recently one of the balljoint bushes of the droplink had a split and so had the pair replaced with replacement FK ones. I have never had no noises, and have had the new ones on for...

coilovers are on The back offside (drivers rear) is making a sort of stretching noise if you lift the back arch upwards, a sort of rusty sounding noise/metal rubbing noise.. i hate explaining noises on cars, mainly cos' you cant, but when u bounce the car it makes that sort of metally...

wierd things keep happening to me........ First i get done for speeding by a camera cunningly desgised as a tree, then i get kicked out of my house and now this! Went last friday to my local dealer to get an lcr splitter, got it, picked it up, fitted it (it looks wicked!) and paid for it...

Engine noises I mean? I've started to notice (but I'm sure it's been there forever, done 950 miles or so now...) that it sounds rather.... not exactly rough, but different from about 1250 - 2000 revs. Say if I'm pootling along at whatever speed that is in whatever gear - seems to be in all...

Hi, seem to have a few strange noises happening on my car which are just a bit annoying. I have a standard Mk2 GTi 8v. 1. When i accelerate really hard i get a knocking noise under the car, sounds like middle if car, just behind front seats. Thought it might be exhaust but that seems ok...

Got a couple of strange noises coming from my Ibiza. 1.This has only just started happening and is gradually getting more frequent. Its a ting sound as if something is heating up and expanding against something else. Or as the chassis twists under cornering or throttle/braking. At first I...

20mins after I went a 20 mile drive tonight I went out the back of my house to find that there was a high pitched beeping noise coming from the engine bay which would come on for about 2secs every appx 19secs, this went on for a further 15mins! i would normally think this was something to do...

on the way back from snetterton yesterday noticed a hissing noise from car. only under load, significant power loss now, wont get past 100, sooting a fair amount (well seems more than normal to me) vagcom comes up with faults on the manifold pressure sensor and manifold temperature...

Right now I've got my FK coilovers fitted the car creaks when stearing. Only happens at < 20mph but you hear quite a loud creaking as if the springs are moving about or something. The car drives ok and it doesn't sound loud outside the car but inside it's very noticable. Anyone know if this...

Hi, has anybody experienced persistant noises coming from somewhere in the back of the car (internally)? I really cannot handle them, and cannot find the source. I also need an advice since my front seats squeek everytime somebody sits. It's the back rather that squeeks. What can I do? Do i have...

recently i've noticed that my car is starting to sound like a police siren when pressing the accelerator. Is this anything i need to be worried about? i had it serviced 3000 miles ago (30k service) and the car has been remapped for over 20k miles without any problems so far... help!!!!!!!! :cry:

i recently had my brakes replaced by a local garage, but ive noticed that sometimes when i let go of the brake pedal (usually when im about to reverse) there is a loud ish 'clunking' noise. is this likely to be anything serious ? i've also noticed that the brakes screech now when under light...

Over the last few days ive been having a gentle whistle when taking it easy , the best way i can describe when/how it sounds is... Say im sat in a 40 zone in 5th gear barely above idle revs, if i give the pedal a little nudge the boost gauge reads around -10 vac and you can feel the car...

Guys. The engine on my Cupra is “pulsing” between 800 & 1000rpm when stationary. I have been using my aircon in this hot weather a lot and was wondering if it was just down to that as I know the noise from the engine differs when using or not. Or is it something else? Thanks

Hi I have recently purchased a Cupra R from my local seatt dealer and i have had strange noises coming from the front of my car ever since i have had it. to me it sounds like my ball joints have gone but they seem to think there is nothing wrong with it. A sort of clunking noise comes from...
