  6. some vehicles have a balance weight on drive shaft due to how long they are also distorted brake discs and if the surface between wheel and hub wasnt free from dirt when wheel was last replaced the wheel would not go on true check the wheels are tight just a thought might be totaly wrong but ha ho

  12. Hello when you say the scuttle panel are you talking about the one under the bonnet with three bolts or the plastic trim under the windscreen. Where are the plastic plugs that neen silicon. Thanks for the reply on the sound proofing under the carpet I now know that this has to be cut out and dried. Is there any plastic plugs in this area or under the seats or in the foot well area that I may not know about. Thanks. hi the one under the windscreen wipers at bottom of windscreen when you remover it i think there is six clips which it fixes into i pulled mine out after reading about this somewhere where some guy went to a windscreen place and they did it for him i have not found any many people say to drill some holes in the compartment under pass seat to save it filling with water if you do find where your is coming from let me know so i can check mine
  13. my passanger foot well was the same so as cold as it was the other day i decided to tackle it but what i did was cut it out with a stanley knife dried it out and built it back up with under lay as the sound profing was had it when the scutle panel was removed did you silicone the plastic plugs in as it can get in there , dont forget to check under passanger seat
