Ok I am not a native speaker.
But how about ' to raise a stink'? ot ' to make a stink' ? Quote:
or: ' to make a fuss' (perhaps more English than American?) Quote:
or even: ' to raise hell' (this one is quite strong though..) |

TO raise hell is the closest to the Spanish expression.
To make a fuss over sth is quite soft. |
