Exclamation

Have experienced on a couple of occassions a squeal and at one point a strange sensation of the car being rubbed/ caught against something.
At first I thought it was the brakes, but I'm not experiencing any noticeable fade or brake squealing.

Could this be the standard clutch (30k miles with 272bhp under bonnet) ?

Funnily, it seems to happen when the car is quite hot during in-town driving (and in particular when I visit a certain shopping precinct !!!!)

P1 clutch being fitted next week if this the main cause.

Cheers
Theo

Question

Theo

Experienced similar... is it when you are steering (moderate to full lock or parking)..? as contamination of one of the belts was my culprit...

Cheers
