Hi again,

Iv recntly noticed on my 1.0l 12v that when i turn off the ignition, there is a high pitched squeeking just before it settles(sounds like a mouse tbh :lol: )

On start up the engine sounds and starts fine and stays like the whilst running, its just when i turn it off?!?

Anyone had a similar problem? I dont want to just ignore it incase its something major :(

thanks in advance!

My 1.0l 12v does the same, has done for a year or two. Not sure what causes it, seems to be running fine so I haven't really looked into it too much.

Would be nice to know though :)
