A wheel bearing usually roars instead of squeaks. Make sure the backing plates didn't get bent to where they touch a brake rotor, and also make sure no rocks got stuck between the rotor and backing plate. I've had that happen before and it can make quite a racket.

Not OEM rims. Rims been on there for quite a while. The noise started about a week ago I thought it was the brake pads so I changed them now it’s still making it Think maybe now it’s the rotors because I didn’t change them and are measuring 34mm. Just ordered new ones.

The only thing that fixed it was ordering brakes from Amazon called power stop Z23 evolution series. Once installed I made sure I bedded them in properly and I’ve been happy ever since. Unfortunately, you lose a bit of the initial bite you get with OEM brakes. I asked if they were OEM wheels to make sure they are not rubbing somewhere on the inside. Good luck and keep us posted.

Oh crap, front drive shaft u-joint failure. Is your transmission ok? Usually it takes that out when it goes and hits the transmission making a rather large hole in your transmission.
You need one of the upgraded driveshafts that Tony sells on here!

Dentprotony is his handle on here.
I’d replace the transmission oil pan no matter what. You don’t know if there are other issues that have compromised the other fins. FCPEuro has full kits to to this.

I just ordered a new driveshaft from Tony to mitigate this from happening. These cars own extraordinary hp and weight, this is a weak spot for them. |
