Drove in heavy downpour..

430409M2 · 09-04-2017, 04:17 PM

On my way home today it began to rain suddenly and quickly turned into a downpour, roads were quite flooded and I fought to stay in the lane that didn't have standing water. About three lights from home the car began to make a very metallic squealing that changed with speed and is only present when in motion. Help?

Rock in rear brake shield possibly.

You were correct, manhandled the shield and suddenly no noise. Thanks!

I've driven mine in heavy rain on the way back from PCD. I don't think I'll ever drive the M2 in a flooded area.

They don't float very well.

I figured that as an M3 Adjuster, you would advocate people boating their M2s
