Getting there. The Cesaro wheels I bought from Miles are now on. Sorted the knocking suspension and noisy wheel bearing after work. Going much better now :)

Hi, On my nova when driving along a fairly rough road it makes a funny noise on the rear driver side sorta shock area? And the other day I got out and shook the car and it def summat to do back there, its like a creaky noise in a way? Is this what you had? what was the prob? How did you sort it? was it expensive?

The knocking was from up front mate as was the droning wheel bearing. Nowt much is really that expensive on the Nova, but I do all the work myself which saves labour charges.

Sounds like you got a knackerd damper or summat.

Can you tell me how our Hedge affects your car, is this a rogue bush ? Do they attack your car at night when no-one is watching ?
You need to tie it back !

Techie? Where was that picture taken?

I sent you a PM about the MK meet on Sunday, if your going to turn up, let us know. Wouldn't mind having a chat with you, especially if you do all the work yourself ;)

Jim

P.S. Your cars looking good.

The pic was taken outside Milton Keynes SEAT in Northfield where I work as a technician.

Not sure if im going to be at the meeting or not, have got somewhere to be on Sunday and the Nova's giving me a bit of greif. Turns out what I thought was a knocking balljoint is infact a knackered hub. Damn it. Got one on order not 100% sure when its going to be in hopefully wednesday.
