Well... The infamous squeak eh . Some people hear it at night some in the morning for the last month I have heard it every frickin time I am in the car. I thought this is it I am going to find it if its the last thing I do. Got myself locked and loaded with a can of WD45 and I set about it. Shaking the car side to side seemed to be the stem of the issue so I looked under the lumbar supported to find a MASSIVE rubber. I soaked this in WD45 and continued to soak anything rubber in my path. Got in the car took it a drive and haypresto it was fixed...........and then later that night it appeared again. I thought lets chance my luck and see what the crap dealer will do for me. Took it down yesterday and on my journey there the squeak was no where to be sign I was dreading the words " If we cant hear it we cant fix it " but I left it there and went back to pick the car up later on that night and was told " We have found the problem to be the brake cable clips .... but this is not covered as you have lowered your car bla de bla " Seasons greetings and all they waved the charge and no I am squeak Free.

Anyone who has this problem it sounds like it comes from the drivers rear arch ITS THE BRAKE CABLE CLIPS FOR SURE !!

Hope it helps guys.
