   Hi, just bought a 98 vtr, every time I reverse a load grinding sort of noise comes out from the frontish of the car, sounds like exhaust or gearbox, anyone else had any similar problems? Cheers

   Record it with ur phone put it on the net send us link? Could be many things does it not make a noise at all while going forwards, or using the breaks etc? Only when going in reverse?
