Hi,
I wonder if anybody else has the same problem as me (no smirking...). I've had to have my front windscreen replaced because of a 6 inch crack (ooeerr missus). Autoglass have replace the screen twice now - first time it was the wrong tint, but more importantly there was a creaking / squeeaking noise coming from near the mirror. The tried again today and it's the same problem. Tracked it down to the foam the use to stop the resin getting everywhere. They're going to have to have the car in again an replace the screen without using the foam (it's the foam that's squeaking / creaking).

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy, i've had a cracking noise coming from around he windscreen for a few months now. The dealer has been unable to find it after many visits to the workshop. Hopefully it's the same problem has you've got and i can get it resolved next time

Got some other bloody annoying squeeks though, exspecially from the rear, the dealer seems to think it's the boot hinge.
