I had a similar experience, found it to be a mouse had set up home under the dashboard. The little sod then stored the poison bait I put down in the heater box, under the carpets, behind the A posts and in the heater pipes, interesting when I demisted the windscreen I got covered in the stuff, and even when I resulted in using the traditional mouse traps managed to get the bait off without springing the trap. The only way I could get him was locking the next door neighbours cat in the garage for a week with no food and water!  So thats what they do in Dorset - I shot mine with a 12 bore

What I can see this is a very common fenomenon. Talked to a friend today with a brand new +4 and he has experienced the same thing.  Tomorrow I will grease the front suspension on my Roadster and see what I can find.  It seems as the sound is coming from the very front of the car. And I will also get rid of the two million dead flies in the front of the car after my 100 mile trip today.  Ken in Sweden

Ken, I have also noticed that the fly-smackability is a very well developed feature...think that I never had a car before where I got smashed flies on the rear fenders..if you miss them with the front you get another chance to score with the rear

I get squeeking when cornering hard but only when my wife's in the passenger seat, must be the slight extra weight? Comes from about head hight on her side!  It's a good job she doesn't go on this forum - does she? Might be about to find out!

Gaffer tape will fix that squeaking. You might just notice a Mmm-Mmm-Mmm.......
