Droaning Sound

[TanK_VW]

yeah checked that. all fine. i had a feeling it was the CV joint.  is it going to be safe to drive with it like that for 2 weeks as i need payday to come... or is it a do it now job?

If its only just started then a couple of weeks should be fine as long as you drive steady and dont rag it rounds corners!

Had both go on a Renault 21 and was fine for 3 weeks and I was doing 70 miles each way all on twisty country roads!

hey guys,

reading you thoughts on Tank_Mk3's issue and possibly think I have a similar problem, have noticed a 'clicking' sound every now and again which appears to be coming from drivers side front wheel area, wasnt sure if it was a bracke issue or wheel bearing, but maybe you think it could be a cv joint if its a 'clicky' noise?

(sorry to hijack the thread, but your thoguhts appreciated)

cheers Andy

It gets worse when turning right. 

its a droaning sound not a clicking and its there when i get to about 50mph and gets worse when on a bend to the right. is this going to be the bearings?

[Len]

CV joints do sort of click, but its not now and again. Will be all the time during cornering. Its more like a clunk or thud.

Tank yours does sound more like wheel bearings. jack up that wheel and see how much movement there is in the wheel.
