started a grating noise on saturdays laning and thought it was grit in the discs .. carried on through sunday and seemed to be coming and going
removed half of snowdonia with a pressure washer this morning and gave the discs a good blast when i put my 18" wheels back on ... took it for a drive ....still grating !!!
seemed to be coming from underneath the car , so quick jack up and spin the rear wheels ... turns out a bash plate that seems to protect the exhaust union had bent and was rubbing on the propshaft ... took it off and "mended " it with a mallet , refited and jobs a good'n
then i went out and bought a new number plate at the princely sum of £12-99

to replace the one stolen from me by the carwash ..hehe
