    1994, 12 years old and not a squeak, rattle, vibration or creak. Nothing, nada, zippo.

    My 1 year old Audi creaks like an old ship in a gale.

    When I bought my car I was expecting it to be built really badly (engine aside) but in truth it isn't. It's probably rattle free thanks to the lack of a proper fit, but I'm constantly suprised at how well put together it is.

    Does anyone else have a rattle free 348?

    I'ts something that still impresses me - I expected it to be a bit 'iffy', like a GTV we had but my 348 is really solid/quiet.

    Hang on, are we all b/B/C owners??

    Well, mine is a '94 spider that has plenty of rattles but with the Tubi and Hyperflows I can fix that....

    Lagerlout your disc brakes look like they need some exercise... :)...great wheels though!

    Cheers

    I have a TS and the only noise I hear is the rubber squeaking above the windshield where the top sits.

    My GTS is rattle free but has a really annoying squeak from under the dash on the pasenger side, sound like something plastic is rubbing.Think it may be the vent hose but need to get someone to drive the car while I check it out.
