Vibrating noise while driving
Vibrating noise while driving
I looked over the car last night. The noise is speed related and is related to the wheels, not the engine (i.e. if you get up to 70 and then put the car in neutral, the noise continues). It does it driving straight and turning right.
Suspension is all solid, and the noise sounds to me like something that's rotating. Didn't find the cause though! I'm trying to find Wozza's old thread about propshaft bearings.
Tyres were fresh on in April. They are shitbox ditch finders though. I will have a look at the prop when I get the chance.
could very well be the tyres, as i said i had the same issue, sounded like bearings etc, the tyres had loads of tread but had gone hard and this caused a rhytmic vibration, changed the tyres and instantly the sound went.
if you can find someone kind enough, swap wheels for a test drive to confirm
cud be tyres out of shape this causes a lot of noise and vibration age not really much to do with it your trye age is a thing called a dot code is on side of tyre and will say dot 12 11 first tow letters are week and last two are year of manufacture just take of a wheel at a time and see if it rolls straight you need a bit of flat drive or path is quite obvious or go to your local fast fit and get them to check it is qiute obviuos which one is wrong is normally if you feel it in your seat is one of your back tyres if in the steering wheel one of your front ones
I had an almost identical experience not that long ago. Noise and vibration from about 55mph up, and only when turning left.
Turned out to be a collapsed bearing.
jack up each corner and spin the wheel you will hear or feel it vibrate if the wheel bearing is gone is usually easy to identify whilst driving thou but doesnt always give you play in the wheel
just wondering if you found a solution cause im having the same problem noise and slight vibration but goes when turning left!! discs and calipers are ok,its driving me mad....
