Mk1 Clio Steering squeek and rumble



  Mk1 Clio R Reg
I have a very annoying problem with my car, it rumbles after warming up goin 30-40+ Mph going straight and squeeks turning i have changed the wheel bearings and have changed brake pads and discs ( not to try and sort the problem ) any ideas what it could be?

could be wheel balancing if it rumbles. The squeek when turning could be the pads making slight contact with the discs (seeing as they are both new) when turning. Mine did this for about 6 months after getting new discs and pads.

no its not that kind of rumble its liek a washing machine rumble but really shakes steering wheel and it was still doing it before the disc an pads change..... any more ideas?

I used to have a MK1 Clio oasis with a squeeky stearing wheel. The squeek is caused by the expansion of a certain material used in the stearing column. Mine would squeek like hell when it was hot, and then run silent when it was cold. As far as I am aware, there's no easy fix for this.

The problem was finally solved when the car was stolen. It brings a smile to my face whenever it rains now as the sun roof leaked like hell.
