Squeaking ONLY over speed bumps & potholes
On the rubber bushings mainly in the wishbone this was where the noise was coming from. But it's such a quick job and prolongs the life of everything rubber I spray everything rubber.🤗

Pin assignment
Hi, early last year, I found the majority of the wires in the door hinge were broken. So anyway I replaced the wiring but lock would only lock with the key. Checked all wires again & all fine so I bought a used door lock but the problem remained plus the second hand lock would also freeze locked when it rained. Back rummaging in the door again and I found I had missed two wires I checked these & they are to do with the "safe lock". So my problem is finding where they attach in t28a because everything else apart from the door lock probably due to"safe lock" is working and I would like to mentally repair it using pin assignment before physically returning to the scene of crime.

Pin assignment
Hi & good afternoon. I'm trying to find the pin assignment for fabia mark 2. T28a connector & or the female socket as well. I have purchased 2 manuals from different companies thinking maybe the first manual didn't have it for some reason no joy. I have tried many variations of what this connector is or could be called in & around the internet no joy. I found pin assignments to everything but. If someone could point me in the right direction. Give a man a fish you feed him for a day. Teach him to fish you feed him for life. If you see what I mean. Hope help is just a click away. Thanks in advance.

Squeaking ONLY over speed bumps & potholes
Hi SJFisher67, Sorry your a fellow suffer! I will check the top mount, only one side for me currently. I was on the net earlier looking for a new wishbone but as yet haven't purchased. Visited other information centres most point towards a new ball joint on the wishbone which I purchased a few weeks ago but due to the little play on the wheel when at 9 & 3 wiggle and none at 12 & 6 I changed the tie rod which got rid of the slight play but not the squick!? I suppose similar to our health problems when we go to Doctors they first consider the most common cause first, so since I have a new ball joint I might as well fit it and see!

Squeaking ONLY over speed bumps & potholes
Hi All, changed outer tie rod still squeaky ONLY over bumps also tried silicone spray on all bushes. With better light & further investigation I have supplied a photo of as far as I can tell the only sorry looking bit of rubber is the bush on the (wishbone) or lower arm. Would you say the wear in the photo is enough to give a squeak?

Tie rod end tightened after locknut
So would you say I need tracking checked again? Because the outer tie rod nut was tightened much later after the wheel alignment? What? What?

Tie rod end tightened after locknut
Hi All, replaced tie end rod needed to work quickly & in the dark. Replaced tie end rod tightened it to 45nb tighten locknut on rod reassembled car. Had the tracking done (they said all is good) after this I torqued the tie end rod nut to the 50nb (manual said) I did it while the locknut is locked ( didn't see any reason to disturb it). I can't see a problem and the car drives straight. Is it a must that the locknut on the rod be tightened after the tie rod nut?🙂
