Hi all,
not been on the site for a while so forgive me for jumping back in straight away with a question...
Been very happily driving a 57 plate 2008 Tourer (7th Gen) iCTDI EX for the last year. Recently I've been noticing some strange noises coming from (I think) the back wheels, very intermittent & so far haven't really noticed any trends as to when they happen. It started round about the time we had snow, but suspect that's incidental. The car was in for a service at the start of February so I'm hoping that if there was anything hanging off underneath Honda would have noticed. It usually starts off as a bit of a 'clunk' followed by a 'metal on metal' grinding or squealing, usually at low speed or when I put the car into reverse. It doesn't last long, 1 mile tops, then clears itself. Then last night driving home I got a noise i can only describe as someone trying to make spooky noises on a Theremin (kinda " wooooooo....woooooooo' - sorry - very hard to describe random noises in words!) - again, only lasted about a mile then cleared. I'm guessing the 2 different noises probably aren't related, and the car's going back in next week for a once over, but I wanted to check with the experts first if there's anything specific I should be asking them to check (sticky callipers, wheel bearings etc?)
Appreciate any advice you guys can offer
