  1. Its a handbrake problem, noticed last night that the cable to the wheel in question was hanging loose and as the cars on its bottom that was the problem I think Thank you for all who got back to me with help
  2. P slots, 14". As far as im am aware, there are no wheel weights
  3. Oh I didnt mention that the car is on its arse at the back, so driveshaft clicking exhaust, which is hanging low anyway.
  4. Sorry, was the rear wheel, drivers side that heated up which sounds as if thats where the clickings coming from
  5. Yeah im a tad stuck on this one Just happened tonight really, or at least its go noticable worse When driving then is a click every rotation of what im assuming is the wheel as it increases with speed At the moment I'm thinking it could just be needing new brake pads because a few days ago i drove a very small distance to smell burning from my car, then noticing smoke/steam issuing from my rear drivers side wheel, the alloy was also very hot. Couldnt have driven more than 2 miles. The clicking has started since then, but the wheel no longer heats up Any ideas? Much appreciated Sam
  6. Just noticed today, on a short trip back to my house from the supermarket (getting stilo bread) that my drivers side rear brake was kiciking out one hell of a rubber pong The whole wheel itself was really warm, and given that the journey only lasted 5 mins, tops, exceeding no more than 50 mph I'm really quite scared Any ideas? Thanks, Sam
  7. Could you find it? I could do with seeing it myself and I dont have check straps haha
  8. Been sorted today Put a new wiper motor on, the left hand arm was stiff as a boy in a girls changing room So its all sorted now, thanks for your help
  9. Driving back from blackpool on sunday the wipers would struggle when i had my lights on Sometimes even stopped Which wasnt too good in the amount of rain we had up in the north this weekend, supprised im alive actually haha Got in contact with my dads mate who knows the score and he said it could just be a grounding wire fault, or something like that Just wanted to know if anyones had similar problems Also should ad that ive had the battery and alternator tested and theyre meant to be fine, but the alternator was 'pulsing' Have tried another battery from a lupo and the test came out the same Any similar problems from anyone else?
  10. I think i saw that knocking around the other day, similar area
