[novalew]

just when driving, when on full lock the car sort of hops sometimes too, but the scraping is new

[Adam]

Driving in a straight line or corners?

[novalew]

[Martin]

[novalew]

[lynchy]

is it when your accelerating hard ? get one of your mates to drive behind you and look for sparks or somethin ?

[novalew]

no just when moving all the time, fast or slow, could it be gearbox oil low? how do u fill it up?

[-AL-]

jack the car up an rotate the wheels an then u can see where its coming from

[Paul]

also push up + down on the os front corner, see if you hear a scrape, grab the wheel and give it a firm shake, check bushes etc, just have a feel + visible check first.
