Galant, boot spring.

[BraindG]

To any of the Galant owners.. Have you heard your boot lid spring "Twang" at high speeds? i think mines getting a bit slack, as its starting to twang at silly speeds. It's a slightly distrubing sound, but nothing life threatning.

Hordak is running without a good chunk of the interior at the moment, and since I removed the boot trim, I too can hear the springs!

Aand everything else!!

HELLO? NO!, I'M IN A FECKING NOISY CAR WHERE I CAN HEAR EVERY CHANGE IN THE ROAD SURFACE! WHAT?

[Roadrunner]

Remove the springs - you don't need 'em

another stupid rattle noise from the rear is the middle rear seat belt housing!...rattle's even more with a bit of bass
ive tried a few way's to "shut it up"..but it's from the inner working's....next step: remove the center belt?

Thing is, i have everything in place.. its really super loud... hard to describe.. but at about 90mph, it just twangs, twangs, twangs..

Check. Had that it seems to have now turned from an occasional 'twang' to a frequent rattle! PITA

My car is way too noisy now - needs a large does of care and attention.

Ive not heard it twang since putting this thread up mind you.. wonder why - I've not done anything to to... /shrug

It happened to me constantly when going at exactly 80 MPH (on a private test track, of course). It happened on both VR4 Saloons I had. I never removed the springs to test the theory though.

[BraindG]

ah, maybe thats why im not hearing it... i slow down a bit to 80

I did notice that you put the "Carpeting" back in your boot... Did you do that when you posted this thread?

[BraindG]

no idea.. don't know why that would affect it, it doesnt touch it..
