instead I have this weird rattle coming from the back

It is quite noticable with the window rolled down. Especially in a confined parking garage.

If you have it, your wife will think you drove over a cat's tail.

Interesting. I did hear quite a few from the meet have the squeeky brakes. Just seems too coincidental to be an isolated problem.

LoL, then we probably don't have it. She definitely woulda complained about it by now...
But then again I don't think she ever opens the windows. is it noticable w/ the windows up?

evoi19 · 09-20-2007, 03:50 PM

Sorry to change subjects...but what do you guys think of these? LM-R's on an e90.

snohman · 09-20-2007, 03:51 PM

Ray, does this remind you of the G35c w/ squealy brembos?

it happens to mine too and it gets hella loud sometimes. they said it was normal.

SpecC · 09-20-2007, 03:59 PM

is it really noticeable? if i had it, i may not have noticed

evoi19 · 09-20-2007, 03:59 PM

Funny how dealers say it's normal. Tell em to drive any car on the lot and it doesn't make that sound.

evoi19 · 09-20-2007, 04:00 PM

FYI H&R Sport springs. $200 picked up in the Bay Area.
