Was out driving my car last night and noticed a high pitch shriek from the bottom right hand side of the engine bay.
It only ever happened when I was doing a decent speed in 5th gear, backing off the throttle over 4000rpm....
I thought it might be a wheel bearing....
Any ideas...
I've got the lower dogbone mount from ktec, taken away most of the knocking but does transmit some vibration into the cabin.
Next ill change the two top mounts and that should sort it!
Just saw this on autocar and loved the bit at the end where chris is accelerating from 120kmph to 300....
Look at that needle move!!

Makes a superbike seem like a scooter...
The 197 has been hailed as a major disappointment by most of the motoring press... Lacking the feedback and pace of the 172/182's..
I agree that it looks quite nice and is better built but if I wanted things like better build then Id go for a golf gti...
I had a test drive of a blue one...
Found this and thought that people might like it...
I found it interesting....

Hey I was wondering if any of you guys in the know could help me....
My 172 cup is very sick at the moment, its been using about 3ltrs of oil in the last 2-3 weeks and i put it into the garage today....
I've been checking the oil regularly and it has consistantly been going down and i've...
I just bought this from the renault garage in bearsden for a very cheap price of £15000.... An 07 plate as well....Goes a hell of a lot faster than my 172 cup ever did and it goes round the outside of any rs model in the twisties...
Had one as a courtesy car for 2 months when my car was in for repairs... The best thing I could say about it as said above is its long distance cruising ability.
Bad handling, slow, bad scuttle shake, lots of rattles and the boot leaked really badly....
Wouldnt spend my money on it...
Its in german but listen to the sound of the engine....
Stunning!
Not bad driving either ;)
