Spring sound when first driving

Post by Emily1233 »

Hi ive just bought a 2006 1.6 petrol 206cc with only 37k on the clock i love the car but i have two problems. First is when the engines cold and i first start to drive the i hear a springing sound when i press the peddles (mostly the accelerator) and go round corners ect. It sound like a metal spring sound It then goes away after about 5 minutes of driving, Ive sprayed wd40 on the srings under the peddles but the sound is still there. I think it could be something to do with the suspention but the coil springs look new to me. Does anyone know what it could be ?
My other problem is a leak on the passenger side where the seals join above the widow ive read that silicone grease is good so i will try that. It looks like the seal on the out side of the windw is damaged and has a small cut in, this is also the same on the drivers side.peugeot quoted me £107 plus labour for new seals for one side, does anyone know if silicone grease fills in cuts in the seals? Also when i close the doors the windows dont go under the seal properly and i have to physically push it under. Do i need my windows adjusting? Any help would be great! Thanks
