There is that stuff you can buy and you put it in at every oil change i think its called wymms or something like that, didnt make much diff to my motor though...... rob

Does the noise only do it when just starting to drive? does it dissapear once you have warmed the brakes up?

Ive got the same noise on my car on start up! It only started doing it after i had the new water pump fitted, i must say its the most irratating noise, i mean everytime there is a bit of moisture in the air...........:( Thing is i had both the belts changed no longer than 10k miles ago so the...

Do they grind all the time or just when cold? My rear brakes have grinded since i had the pads replaced a while back, im sure you can get some spray cleaner stuf from halfords???

How do i check the gearbox oil?

Like i said though it never jumps out of gear it just that i put the clutch down and as i move it out of second gear it seems like it moves a little on its own as if it would want to jump out 2nd.(with the clutch down) When i bought the car i did a little test, driving quite hard in 2nd then...

My car is nearly at the 80k mark and although it never jumps out of gear sometimes in 2nd as i go to change gear i feel as if it wants to jump out of gear, does that make sense?? is it a problem i can expect to gradually get worse and eventually pop out of gear?

Aaronc i think i know the noise you mean it only does it for a moment and particularly when its cold or been stood for a longer period of time. My water pump needed replacing and its only since having that done that it has made that noise. I would say it kind of sounds like crickets/...
