NOISES

[KINGHORN]

ok i have a noise that appears sometimes when i move off at first i thought it was a heat shield somewhere but after jc having it 3 time and still no difference im stumped,

but the other day someone told me it was happening to there girlfriends car but the noie was coming from the rear, (mine is the front) and that it could possibly mean break pads, but had a looky and they are low but not sufficiet to need changing immeadiatly


any ideas

cheers

Is it only after the car has sat for a long time - ie over night?

If so it could be surface corrosion on the discs - mines does that when it has sat - after the frist press of the brakes though it's gone!

Have the same problem and the cars booked in for the second time in January when i get back to the UK. Heat shield was loose but it wasnt the prob. Its going to have the whole clutch assembly replaced under warranty though.

MMM mine is back intoday hopefully it will be fixed as its pissing me off, but will ask about the clutch

the noise appears when pulling away after coming to a hault

I had this noise too, JC replaced the rear disks and pads (couple o hundred quid)but the noise continued and then suddenly just stopped. Strange.:question:

oh well car is goin back in tomorow the 6th, for a new clutch assembly and spigot bearing, after me asking them if this might be the problem after it wwent in the second time and the said there was no chance now its getting one, what a heaps of sh*t, its possibly just because im young but does anyone else have problems getting intouch with the people they need at JC
