    Since my confidence in this is rather high I shall spoil you guys with more clues

    I'm a critical component very strong although I'm not really apart of cars now a days

    I'm a moving part that can sometimes squeak

    Although I can be found on both petrol and diesel I am mostly found on diesel vehicles

    That thought actually scares me, I remember the first time he got one right, dropped me a text saying I dont have a clue what to use, I gave him the idea of using wiring and he twisted the conundrum so far around that it just didnt stand a chance....
