Ugliest. Car. EVAR!

Ladies, Gents. Seems my 40 has developed a squeaking noise in or around the transmission. It's intermittent but getting worse. It happens most when braking/low revs/idleing in neutral. Will stop as I accelerate or increase revs above idle. Is very audible inside cab, cant hear it from the...

I know its silly, but i had a similar problem and it turned out to just be a loose plug on the back of the switch...

One of the guys i know through work was saying how much he missed the Mercedes-like ride of his 40. There was lulz had.
