    Front gaitor replaced - now squealing noise?!

    The S2 failed the MOT the other day - poxy gaitor split. Had the phone call and got the garage to change as it was already the ramps.

    Was in a rush when i picked her up but noticed an intermittent on/off type sqeak as soon as i was driving away, was presuming things just bedding in. Didnt drive her for a couple of days then had took her for a good 50 mile blast yesterday and the squeal still there...

    Its on front driver side (same as new gaitor), its ok when i turn right but there if im straight or worse on a left hander..! Sounds like metal to metal or something.

    Any ideas before i call them?? im running 996's with 18's & 10mm spacers if thats of any relevance...

    cheers

    .

    Jack up that corner and spin the wheel whilst going lock to lock, might need the gf to do the steering.

    Hopefully shows up something, did they chuck in some new cv lube?

        Thats a good point Mike, sounds like that could well be it!

        Carlos, it was at Ley Dat over Innsworth Tech park so doubt v much if they greased it properly. They did grease the top of door cill tho as i found out when resting my elbow on it at the traffic lights...t*ssers..

        I'll jack it up and have a play..
        cheers
