Hi guys can anyone help?
Last coulpe of days after say 15 mins of driving, if i drive over slightly rough tarmac even, i get this really bad squeaking from under thecar. Sounds like an old squeaky iron bed or fingers going down a black board !!!!!!!
Got home and had a look underneath couldnt see anything obvious.

Closed the drivers door and i heard the squeak, def. underneath. If i move the tail pipe with my foot (remembered the 2nd time that it was hot! dont ask.) and heard the squeaking/squealing underneath only when the exhaust is moved side to side.

Again this is only when its warm/hot but well embarrasing when driving in traffic and all you can hear is this squealing !

Any body got any ideas of whats up with the 'zorst?

Any help really app.

Cheers

Possibly the heat shield ? More like a vibrating metallic noise : my 95 WRX does this at low speeds. A v. common problem with the shield developing a crack fix is to remove totally or replace. Guess welding may also be possible.

Check the Turbo heatshield, just had the same problem, it sounded has though it was coming from underneath the car, so got under and had a look couldn't see any thing. so popped the bonnet and low and behold a bolt missing from it the turbo heat shield.

had a look at those and all seems well on the turbo heatshield.
Its really noticable if you move the exhaust around when you youve just stopped, sounds like an old squeaky iron bed.
All the exhaust mountings are rubber i assume? it does sound like a metal squeak though.
Any other ideas?
