Squeak squeak...
Anyone else have a squeaky seat in their Puma? The driver's seat in mine squeaks, I can't seem to get rid of it. It appears to be coming from the left side... enough to drive you bonkers if you're on a long trip.

The clutch pedal squeaks as well. I thought I'd sorted it - I doused the area that I thought was the culprit with WD-40, and it appeared to sort it for about 40 minutes...

I heard from someone else Whistle that it's the outside edge of the seatback rubbing on the car trim when the seat is in the "Built like a proper man position", a bit of silicon lube works wonders alledgedly Original Member Pie n Pea Club.

Should the sillicon lube be applied to the seat or the lard 4r5e sat in it? Sent from a not so slim southerner!

Strange Popping Sound!
Was wondering why whenever I get in or out of my Landy there was a loud 'pop.' Will be siliconing my doorseals forthwith!

Mouse! Squeek Squeek - Dead!
Once Upon a Time in one of our forces aircraft a mouse had been seen scurrying about. After attempts had been made to trap it with no success it was decided to take the aircraft up to a significant altitude have the crew on breathing air, open the door and let the little bu99er suffocate. And they all lived.......except the mouse that is! The end!
B & Q do a trap for mice, with regards to the altitude bit I think it's a non-starter but maybe a 'phall' at your local Indian followed by a long run may have a similar effect on the little blighter should it happen to be a mouse of course! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

When I look at K9F's avatar, I know where the squeak squeak comes from... Boldly going nowhere
