Intermittent creak

Featured Replies

I have just started to notice when i pull away i have a squeak coming from the front.

Just like an old floor board.

 

It's baffled me.

Any help in thought's to what it could be.

I am soon getting H&R kit and will also be changing lower arm's for S3 one's with TT rear console bushes.

On the mk1 ARB bushes and rad mounts sometimes caused such noises, but generally more so when traversing a speedbumps rather than when setting off.  Might be worth checking though.

Engine mounts maybe. The lower is something I'd look at.

Been out tonight with the Mrs lol.

 

Noise is deffo NSF wheel,creak is more of an explanation and it does it when i take off and stop at low speed's.

Caliper isn't sticking it's not hot at all,nor is the wheel.

Driveshaft is new.

 

I reckon it may be rear console bushes? or ARB

I found it....

 

Only worry about this if you have converted your hub carrier's to alloy instead of the cast unit's.

It's strange that I came across this post. My car started creaking today. Sounds like there is a ghost lurking outside the bedroom... Other than having the front wheels off 2 months ago for new tyres nothing has been done to the car. Totally standard. Mrs seems to think the glovebox is too full.
