Had one of the mechanics in the car to find out what that noise is. He says sounds like It's the gear box (bearings) has gone. Not good news at mo

I think It's the exhaust. He thinks It's the gear box. Getting my car serviced next Saturday he's going to change the gear oil see if that cures the sound. Getting one of the lads in the shop to have a ride in it see what he thinks on the noise

AdamP, can you PM me your phone number please, and the post code of where we're going to meet. Cheeeeeeers :rasp:

Will do it now dude, sorry been away on a mini road trip in my mates cars.

Alls I'm saying is, please don't let it be windy when we get the ferry.

I'm hoping it's not windy when we travel on the ferry. Did Calais to Dover yesterday, and instead of an hour and 30 mins, it took the best part of 8 hours.

On another note, there are some cracking roads in France. :D

hope it is ok on the weather like.

been to Tyre Spot over on Scotswood road this morning, eventauly found out the problem after 2 test drives and on the ramps twice. looks like it to be the heat shield hitting against the exhaust plus one of the clamps was near enough against the sub frame so that got re aligned, on way home didn't hear nowt so jobs a good un.

Also the car didn't start at tyre spot they jumped it and started straight away so went to Discount after Chris there put a new one on for me :)

That's good news then, at least it's sorted!

It's probably best if I meet you guys at Newport Pagnell services on the M1. MK16 8DS. That's about 30 miles away from me and saves you guys having to come off route.
