Hi all;

I've recently bought my Siii Coupe!
Over the moon with it thus far. I'm pretty handy with a spanner so I joined here to mine your wealth of knowledge.
Might even bestow some of my own ;)

Thanks for the welcome guys. My first port of call is going to be tracing that damn rear end rattle. It's driving me insane :angry-banghead: Currently got the bootlid packed out with some sticky foam - doesnt seem to be that. Im guessing droplinks next.

- Have already checked all the obvious stuff like spare wheel tray, jack, drain tubes etc.

If its not the drop links try the ANTI ROLL BAR that goes from one side to the other as the rubber bushes on those go as well

Saw one while I was at Sharkey's the other week and the droplinks were fine but these bushes were well knackered

Thanks for the warm welcome guys :text-thankyouyellow:

Cheers for the advice Dodge! I might nip along to the Hyundai dealer at the weekend and see if they'll put it up on the ramps for me.

Also FYI everyone I'm a design engineer - so if you need drawings done I'll be happy to help I'm also a dab hand with a soldering iron, PCB design, 3d printing etc :handgestures-thumbupleft:
