HI AND CAN YOU PLEASE TURN THE CAPS OFF



you say you have some new wheels , did they by any chance come with some big gripped tyres ???

sounds daft but you can get quite a lot of noise from off road tyres , i know i do with mine and could be mistaken for a mechanical fault ?

just an idea anyway
