As in my previous post...I am on vacation and getting nervous....99XJ 170K.
When I bought it, I heard some noise after I started the car and turned the steering wheel while it was stopped or moving at 5mph or below. The guy that sold it to me simply said :"Rust" (man of many words)...Noise disappeared within a day after I bought it.
Seven years later. I heard it once last week. Then couple of times more...Now I am on vacation, yesterday we went through a rainstorm. Nothing out of the ordinary, but now if the car is stopped or moves with 5mph or less, when turning the wheel I hear the sound X100. It sounds kinda like an old rusty metal door creak (sp?).
I greased the chassis before left and I dont think I have a stuck calliper.
Anything I should be really worried about?
Thanks in advance
Boris
