When my 172 is driven hard for a little while you start to get a kind of squeek/metal on metal rub at low speeds coming from under the car, cant be heard from inside only when the windows are down can you hear it.... this then goes once the car has been left for a while (maybe to cool down)...
Im only 21 and was 20 when I got mine... TESCO only wanted £1080 fully comp... also try Adrian Flux and Sainsburys
Enjoy the motor mate, there quality....... what colour - also any pics?

Coule it be the engine PINKIN...... i think mine does the same. I got the missus to raw past me on foot and it definatley sounds dodgy.....
Any ideas and is it damaging the engine?
ALL i want to do is improve the noise of the engine, want more grunt....

What is the panel filter then, would i need to tell the...
No i was thinking of the Induction kit.... i have been informed that maybe it will get too hot for it under the bonnet, but i dont fancy spending £250 on the Viper
Yeah i know what your saying ROB but TESCO are charging me £177.45 to put a £90 Air Filter on and if i do the exchaust they wont charge anymore so I just thought "might as well"
Not telling them is not an option... with my luck. id get "proper f11ked"
