The pull out luggage cover in my SW squeaks every now and again! There is also an occasional rattle, but this is normally something stored in one of the 'under floor' compartments!

I did notice, while moving my tow bar electrics that there were a few stones which had made their way into the rear bumper!

Hi Cee'd owners.

the thing is, also i noticed this rattle in the suspension (I am from Slovenia). The problem is, I can not tell if it is coming from back or from the front of the car. It is mostly heard till 50km/h, later not that much. It is getting more and more annoying and loud. So i took it to the dealer to check it. They said that they need to change some rubber bearing on the top of the shock absorbers. Today i went ot pick up the car - and look- it is still making the same noise. So after 500 meters i took the car back and let them check once again. I hope it will be done till tomorrow.

Regards

Robert

I've noticed that mine rattles slightly when i take a sharp jerk on the front. I hear as if something rattles on the front at the instance. However, once I went over pothole (slowly) and I think I hit the bottom of the car - I hope it doesn't have anything to do with this! I'm going to take it in for the first service soon... I'll check about it.

Edit: I now saw that this bulletin was for the 1.6 petrol engine. You don't happen to also have the link to the 1.6 diesel ECU upgrade bulletin ?
