Hi

I recently purchased at a good price from my favorite online shop in Germany a BRawa 40137. I have run it in and it operates well and I am really happy with the engine. I've noticed that it has developed an audible squeak, which I am now trying to locate. I have (sparingly) oiled the wheels and am now going to open the engine itself. I guess I ma just wondering whether it may be the motor given that it has been sitting most likely in a storeroom for a long time, as it came out in 2008. Was also wondering if the slider might be the issue.

Grateful for any advice on what to look for.

Tack Anders!

No, it is continuous, although louder sometimes than others.

You need to use special grease for the gear transmission perhaps...?
Trix has one and it´s number:66626
