realy loud screaching noises when stearing
« on: Nov 20, 2006, 10:11PM »
i noticed the other day my car had a bit of a screaching noise so me rathies and ammerty decided to look into it we thought it was the belt slipping so we put some belt grip on the belt but it has seemed to be 50 times worse than wat it was. does anyone know what could be causing the screaching noises.
