HOWICK17 Fiesta Crazy Registered: 15/08/07 Posts: 690	Yes think everybody with a ST has had this problem, best thing to do is either take it back and get them to sort it or just try spraying some wd40 on it or putting some grease on it , no matter wot you do you will prob always have it, try doing wot i do just turn your music up really loud _________________________

Thanks... whats the best thing to do it with... i'm pretty sure they just put WD40 on it the last few times and it's done... well... bugger all really... only lasted a few months. _________________________

DAVE T ST Fiesta Nutter Registered: 15/01/06 Posts: 3556 Loc: Tipton nr. Dudley, W. Mids	WD40 will shut it up but only for a few days till it drys out. I'd recommend spray grease or motorcycle spray chain lube as it lasts ages, I use this on my bonnet release mechanism. _________________________ 2011 Focus 3-door Zetec 1.6 TDCi.

JJST Registered: 20/04/07 Posts: 4206	Quote: where else to they go then? everywhere I live or went in uk I also saw those only shops for cars Guess it depends what you're after Jimmy but generally if you want car audio you are much better off buying from the net. Halfords sometimes have reasonable deals on alloys and occasionally on the odd item or two like sat nav but it is mainly overpriced! Can't think of anything else they sell which someone would want! _________________________
