Now I've started winding the windows down because of the weather I'm noticing lots of noises I've never heard before.
1) Constant metallic rattling from front end. Sounds like loose guard or something like. I believe this could be something to do with a bush in the hubs as I seem to remember a thread on here a while back. Irritating more than anything. Does anyone have the link to the repair / replacement instructions?
2) Sudden and disturbing metallic 'crunch' or 'clang / squeak' type sound when on full right lock (ie when moving out of parking space at side of road). Very brief, then stops. A friend suggested anti roll bar bushes. Any thoughts?
3) Slight wheezing sound from shocks (presumably) on compression or rebound when driving over speed humps / kerbs etc. My Alfa used to do this and it was normal. Is it normal on these too or is it time to replace? Handling feels ok (or as good as it ever does for these things on the OEM shocks).
She has 70k miles on her, and the shocks are originals. Only been used lightly off road.
