Strut race rubbing on Intercooler
#1
Hi All
Does anyone else have a Pre97 MY Turbo with a Strut Brace fitted.
I have an OMP brace, & while I think it makes a difference to the cars handling, whenever I go hard through the gears, the brace vibrates against the intercooler and produces a funny noise (undescribable)
On post 97 cars the intercooler is situated further forward so I guess this isn't a problem.
When my dealer fitted it, they put some sticky pads at the point where the brace & cooler touched but these soon wear away.
Any suggestions?

The strut brace is fitted behind the intercooler & was fitted by a dealer so it should be the correct one.
All the dealer can suggest is more sticky pads. They also tried un-screwing the bolts that hold the cooler in place and moving it slightly but this didn't work either)
