JonC Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 none of my wheels make a noise but i have this weird gearbox rattle at certain rpm's , i reckon theres something loose or a few nuts and bolts rattling around in it, also check the exhaust heat shields under the car mine had started rattling cos the speed bumps took them out...

RS2000 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Could be the rear brake drums, had an escort that i thought had shitty bearings. I t was actualy a worn drum & the bearing was a loose fit in the drum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
