I don't know if this the right place to post so if not please move or what ever.

While changing to winterwheels I noticed that I've some brush/scrub/grind (?) marks on the rear inner plastic fenders (the "wall" part facing the trunk) which look like the tyres or rims have been grinding into them for a short time. I haven't changed the tyre or rim types and I'm sure these marks weren't there last year.

Does anybody has an idea what is wrong? Are the torsion bars or springs done?

I'm sure I didn't overloaded it or produced any other stronger compressions with bumps or humps.

Everything is stock and the little "nipples" on the end stops look fine...ehhh, you know what I mean. Wink

sounds like your bearings on your rear end are on the way out or already gone.

Thanks. You mean the axle-bearings, right?

Please excuse my ignorance but the things with the four bolts or the ones the rasp sticks in?

The file is holding his shock in, and the four bolts are the beam mounts to the chassis.

Just changed my beam because it had been doing this, dying bearing.
