Well, had the Monaro for two weeks now and all in all am pleased with it. However, just a few teething problems that i need to pick everyone's brains about.

First thing is I've noticed that there is an intermittent drip of "something" coming from under the dash of driver's footwell. Its not constant, but you notice that your socks are wet once you have go out of the car. Any ideas?

Also, when driving in slow traffic, and I've got the clutch depressed to change gear, I can hear a squeel coming from somewhere but for the life of me cannot source it. Also, on gear change there is a fair bit of knocking going on. Is this down to the clutch or gearbox, or is this the car just bedding in? Its interesting that if the car is in 1st/2nd gear and foot is off the clutch, the car will want to move from a stationary position, just like an automatic.

When I turn the car off there is a fair amount of rattle going on.

Probably all just teething probs, but annoying at the same time.
