    squeaking/creaking noise

    Hi, my phase 2 R5 turbo has developed a sort of squeaking/creaking noise as i pull away in 1st gear, it usually does it again after putting it in second on initial pull/acceleration. after this it completely stops. i have been underneath car and can't find anything loose. sounds like it coming from car front left area. any ideas???

    If its non engine related would say engine mounts/anti roll bar bushes. If they are original it would defiantly be worth changing them for new.

    You can get a horrible noise from the dustributor drive gear. I've never found out why they do it.

    cheers Matt,

    I changed out the engine mounts for brand new ones just after i purchased it. Could be the anti roll bar bushes, i'll check them out. cheers
