squealing

Hi, After a bit of help please, Keeping getting a loud squealing noise when i accelerate only seems to happen when i am over 30mph and in 3rd gear or above. Starts at 1800rpm goes around 2100rpm, can hear it inside the car or when i have the window down. Also When i am on the motorway and want...

Hey folks, Embarassing problem more than anything really, but I've noticed that my car is squeeking LOTS, when moving at slow speeds (usually in traffic). Not related to engine, as with clutch in, or in neutral, noise persists. It doesn't do it all the time, but clears as soon as I'm doing...

After fitting the Allard pipework upgrade and running the boost gauge from the EGR, there is a squeal between 18 and 24psi ish. I have renewed the pipe from the EGR to the gauge itself and the squeal is still there. Has anyone else had this happen? Cheers in advance

my ibiza (pd130) has started to make a funny squealing / squeaking noise from the engine. when you pull away with low revs it makes the noise almost like a fan belt slipping but not as loud. it does the same in 2nd and 3rd at low revs (below 1500) once u go above 1500 revs the noise vanishes or...

Hi just picked up my new lcr this morning and have found that when you let off the throttle rather than have the normal woosh of the recirc valve i get a squeal like an old bed spring lol what would be causing this? would i be needing a new spring or a rebuild kit? would like to keep the...

hi guys, i fitted some new discs and pads to the mother in laws tdi yesterday, fs3 calipers. never done these before, only fn3 cupra calipers... it has a squealing noise coming from the brakes... is this usual on these brakes, the pads has clips to push into the piston and the caliper...

Was out in the car at lunch time and noticed a very loud squealing noise when turning left. It was ok when i went home, but on returning to work after jet washing the car it started as I got to the car park. It happened about 30mph and about 10mph...but not when the cars sitting parked and...

I have just noticed that when under moderate acceleration from 1750rpm~ (40mph) up to 2000rpm~ in 4th gear my progress is accompanied by this new noise which is best likened to a belt slipping. Car is 6 months old, 4k miles FR170. I'd be interested to hear if anyones else has had a similar...

I had new discs and pads put on a LC a few weeks ago at the local stealer when I had a 10k service. They squeal really badly when braking while reversing. I took it back and asked them to look over the job that they'd done but couldnt find any problems. Just some dust etc... The squeal is...

do brakes squeal when the pads are too low? (when your not using them) last couple weeks I've had an annoying squealing sound from the rear wheels, usually when im going in a straight line but tbh it only makes noises when the steering wheel is in a certain position. i know for a fact that...

Hi all, Sorry - You can probably tell by now - I'm a new LCR owner...:) I get funny squealing sound from me brakes when I reverse... is this a common problem? Do I need new pads on the rear? or shall I try more copper grease? Thanks

Anyone had this? when I am reversing and I brake, my brakes squek......but doesnt happen when i am going forward...... any suggestions?

Hi guys, I just had new discs and pads all round on my 99 Toledo 1.8se auto, they started squealing within a week or so of them being fitted. I have had the car back to the place that fitted the brakes last three days in a row each time it came back the car was ok for a few miles but after...

Hi all, My Leon FR PD150 has covered only 5.7K miles and there is noticeable squeal from the brakes :( Only really occurs when lightly using the brakes, I have never had to stand on them....its really high-pitched. Has anyone else experienced this, is it the OEM pads that are used by...

The brakes on my Toledo 20VT sport have always had a bit of a squeak now and again but recently it has become quite severe. The breaks squeal every time I apply them. I have also noticed that when I reverse there is a 'resonating' sound which I assume to be from the brakes. Any idea what this...

I've only had my Leon (standard FR) a couple of months but not that impressed with the brake pads they dont seem as responsive as I expected them to be. Plus they squeal when put into reverse, is this normal?? I also noticed that the front brake pads produce an excessive amount of brake...
