i have the new rolla. it about 9000km done. recently had an accident and had my left fender , front and back door repaired and repainted. now when i drive , i hear a very loud creaking noise from the driver side. some things which i have noticed is

when i go forward or backward , there is no noise. but only when i go up and down on bumps , i hear tht thing creak

is there a possibility :-
1) somthing inside the engine bay or the fender is making the noise? and can it be heard right inside the car?

2) is it possible tht due to the accident , i broke somthing inside the dash? and how can i open up the dash to check?

3) is it possible tht there is somthing loose inside the door ? but when i open and close the door , there isnt a single noise in it.

any suggestion would be usefull

also when i am driving , i somtimes hear some roaring noise. noise heard similar to when an oil power steering pump goes bad and u try to turn the car on ideal... but then this car has eps no? could this be my imagination?

Search for Seat TSB or squeaks on this (10 gen) forum. I guarantee you will find what you are looking for

i just went through the search... but couldnt find the solution to the problems. but this is not like squeaks , its like a major noise coming when i hit the bumps... and it looks like it from inside the cabin somwhere.

Hard to tell just by the description, but possibly a loose door panel. Maybe a video with sound may make it easier for people to help you.

I am thinking its the TSB for the seats it has every indicator of the bolt issues with the seats

ok i got the problem!. the driver side fender bolt were all loose. fixed it now.
secondly i am trying to find some rolla pics with the projector headlights. how come many of us do not have them ? i think it looks really very cool..............
