   hi got a couple of problems with my eastcoast 1.1
   
   firstly, there is a constant clicking noise coming from the front drivers side wheel doing low and high speeds??
   
   and secondlyy when i turn for a corner i sometimes get a creaking noise it sounds like the noise is coming from straght in front of me..
