Seems to be coming from the rear driver side suspension at slow speed. What could it be? Anybody else had this problem.

Did some runs at 80mph and the mount and camera held up fine. Will do faster and more spirited runs in the future.

I have had the same noise in mine....comes from the drivetrain I think. Nothing to do with the brakes because I'm never on them when its happening. Usually in the mornings or pulling out of parking spots slowly....going in drive and reverse

I believe the metal black dirt deflector? behind the brake disc is touching the brake disc slightly. Try pushing it slightly away from the disc. Had this noise on my wifes B200 and that was the cause.

I hope this helps

My friend just told me the same thing, i'll have to check that out. I just remembered something similar with my civic. Thanks

It's the brake shield you're referring to.

I have yet to experience the service of MB, but I doubt they'll be worse than a Mitsubishi one. :o
