    Bangs ang Sqeeking

    Hi all,

    Quick one, my 5 has developed a sqeek from front right wheel area.
    This noise gets louder when i brake, pads?.


    When i go over a hole or up a small kerb i get a bang / knocking from the same corner.

    I also hear a noise when turning at a slow speed.


    When i lift off the clutch i get another clunk as it engages.


    There are alot of cobbles around hear, i have to crawl for fear of my car falling apart.




    While im at it Ted mentioned that my breather hose that comes from the sump should`nt be blocked up, my breather goes from rocker to catch tank.
    Should i unblock the pipe and put a lil filter on it?.

    Sounds like a wheel bearing, i'd jack up the corner, get the wheel off and have a nose. Check for play, you'll be able to check the condition of your discs and pads at the same time.
