Hi Guys

Just wondering if you can help. My dad's mark 6 fiesta is making a sort or rubbing noise at the back right wheel as if it is the exhaust hitting something.

My dad has checked like the exhaust and the mountings, its a bit loose but I think it's meant to be like that with a slight movement.

I can't think what it would be but it only happens when the car is moving, when you rev the engine you don't hear it.

Could it be the exhaust or maybe is it the wheels.


Hope you can help.

Cheers

Davy

The car is a standard fiesta flame

 

Are the wheels definately standard ones?

 

aye standard wheels, 5 spoke 15 inch fiesta zetec alloys which came with the car

 

creeky top mounts? bushes need replacing? maybe even a shock needs replacing? if it whiirrs it could be a wheel bearing

 

Thanks for your help, i'll will let my dad know

Well my dad has taken the car to kwikfit and budget and they can't find anything wrong with his fiesta, looks like it is some lose fitting trim around the wheel arch.

Does anybody know what it can be now without removing the trim?

Cheers

Dad's fiesta was taken to ford yesterday, it was the bushes.
