Fuel issues and noises
Hey guys,
During my last service I got the ECU wiped/flashed because of some issues regarding transmission etc (automatic ) Anyways, I've noticed after this that the fuel consumption for my car has skyrocketed, what could be the possible causes for this? Also have a squeaking noise coming from on of the wheels which seems to go away when the wheel is turned to a certain point or I press on the brakes but reappears soon after, it squeaks at roughly identical intervals continuously until I perform one of the afformentioned actions. Sounds a little like something scraping on the rotor or something as it is spinning but I cannot see anything, could also be a CV joint? I'm lost for options. Cheers |

The squeek is one of your pad wear indicators doing it's job - your pads need changing!

Hey guys sorry but does anyone have any feedback on the fuel consumption?
Also have a possible whining diff, there's a very noticable whine whilst driving at ~80km/h and 100km/h I thought it was the diff until I got some new rubber and the noise stopped completely, though now after some months or owning the new tyres the noise has come back and is gradually getting louder |

Then the squeaking will be the pads catching the rotor...check that the anti-squeal shims were put back when pads were changed.
