Was driving to work in the morning and had a bit of an incident on a roundabout with my back end sliding out. The roundabout has a steep curb and nothing but grass in the middle. My car slid round and kinda just went straight into it, then slid round to a stop in the middle of the grassy bit. No visible damage on the outside of the car. I got it back on the road and car seems fine. Tracking seems ok, its not veering to either side but when I turn right I get a slight mechanical sounding noise coming from that side. Not sure what that would be but obviously I have gubbed something
....I will need to take a trip to Edinburgh to get the guys at Murrays to check it out. But before I make the long trip (almost 100 miles), can anyone recommend a place in the Greenock area that I could take it to so that they can have a quick look so see if its safe for me to make the journey?
Thanks...
). If you slid backwards with your wheels locked up on grass, it could have piled into the backs of the wheels and brake calipers (fronts more susceptible) and you could just have some junk rubbing the disc when you put some lock on. Very worth a look though - if you can jack it up, get one side up at a time and swing off the wheels, checking for any movements or clunks - also rotate them and listen for any grinding. Also, check out wishbones and toe links for any bends (they should be straight, so have a steel ruler or straight-edge to check)
