ChristopherReeve Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 So the new game in my lupo is 'where is that awful noise coming from'. Since i bought my lupo there has been a noise coming from the rear. I finally plucked up the confidence to strip the everything out of the rear and now the noise is pretty loud! I thought it was the boot when you shut it so I wrapped insulation tape around the silver metal latch and that wasn't the answer....anyone got any answers it could be? Unfortunately no winning prize lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristopherReeve Posted April 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 It was the exhaust. one of the rubber bits had perished and caused knocking throughout the whole car! thanks guys for the advice though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
