Title: wierd noise again
Post by: golf-manic on 25 March 2009, 18:49

i have already put a post up about a wierd noise and was told it was the diff bearing in gearbox.
my dad has replaced the gearbox today with a good one, and the noise is still the same, but not as loud.
its not a wheel bearing, not diff bearing. it does sound like a wheel bearing though

maybe its the driveshaft bottoming out?
ive checked for play in them and there is a little bit in passenger side, but non in the drivers side.
the car has been lowered 40mm with top mounts so it could have the wrong driveshaft in maybe?

help please, would like to go spring fest in her on sunday

Could be a bunch of things, do a search there's been a lot of posts on comparing wheel bearing noise / driveshaft noise / top mounts etc.
