My car is falling apart - literally!

Featured Replies

A few months back I had a coolant leak and a pipe going to the radiator wasn't bolted down which contributed to the leak.

Then about 1 month ago I could hear a noise on my car when moving at low speed that nobody else could here. Then this week the noise got louder so my mates knew I wasn't imagining things. It got so bad that this noise sounded like someone was hitting the underneath of my car with a hammer and the only time it didn't make a noise was when I was accelerating or braking.

I took it to the garage and it took them all day to find out what the problem was. Apparently some bolts on the drive shaft had come loose! This is the second time bolts have come loose on my car! Quite scary!

I'm glad it wasn't much after buying my new alloys I can't really afford a big repair bill!

Good job you had it looked at though , it wouldn't be much fun to lose a driveshaft at speed! Mine is behaving its-self just now......lol

Many years ago I had a driveshaft comne adriift on a Mk1 Golf, because some fecking idiot (me) didn't tighten it properly. It then smashed a hole in the gearbox......
