Squeaks!

(1/3) > >>

Spacemud:
Seem to have developed a squeak on my discovery. Have had a quick look at the obvious things but won't be going underneath until the weekend!
Seems to be a dry type of squeak like you get from a loose exhaust but more so. My gut reaction is the fron UJ on the prop. Reason is, it sounds like it is coming from the front and speeds up as the revs do when under strain. Also, whole car seems slightly more juddery. I'm tempted to blame the recent salted roads for seeing it off.

Anyone else had similar? Any other opinions?!!

Richie_EB4:
Does sound like a UJ.......but i have had a pinion bearing go on the diff and that did squeak.........also if its a 300tdi the belt tensioner does squeak bad and will change note as the engine revs do.

Sorry carnt help anymore

beast5680:
i had a wheel bearing that squeked badly but then it was completly devoid of grease :oops:

Spacemud:
Thanks! Looks like a busy weekend again then!!!

Budgie:
Squeeks from U/J's will increase with road speed, squeeks from the belt tentioner will increase with engine speed, no matter what gear you're in.  May help to narrow it down a little.  :wink:
