I just bought a P reg mk1 punto from my sister its been in the family for 4 years with no problems. As soon as i got it i found out i had to replace the front drivers side strut which was fine and i bought a new battery. Now the back struts sound like they have gone.
Yesterday it was frosty and i was idle in a traffic jam. I kept hearing a noise that sounded like someones exhaust had fallen off and was dragging along the ground i didn't think it was my engine but then steam was coming up around my bonet but this could have been because it was cold, another car pulled over so i thought it was their car that was in trouble. Last night i left my engine running to warm it up when i came back i could hear the noise again and it was getting louder and louder it sounds like something is grinding i opened up my bonet and the cap to my radiator water is missing but i doubt that would make my car make such a horrible noise... i drove it home which wasn't far but it kept making the noise all the way there >.< anyone experienced this before with their punto or any other car? please help!i dont want my car to die i love my little punto!!!!
