Loud noise
« on: 14 April 2012, 19:36 »
Right I've got this noise coming from the front somewhere. I have replaced the front wheel bearings this morning coz I was sure it was them. It's like a wob wob wob noise as I go over 20 mph and gets louder the move I put my foot down. It's driving me mad, any ideas ?????

If its a wheel bearing type noise possibly a buckled wheel, misshaped tyre, try swaping your wheels front to back?.

I had it recently and change the rear bearings but the tyres where feathered really bad causing the noise

Sounds like a tyre out of shape.
