Strange noise update

(1/6) > >>

gtomo2:
driving around today hear for the first time a noise sounds like a low rumble with a thump thump as the wheels turn. ran it for a bit and felt the hubs none of them were hot all felt around the same temp it is speed related as the thump increases with speed. any ideas were to start checking. have looked at the brakes and they look ok and likei said the whhel stations were not hot after running it around for about 40 mins so dont think its wheel bearings but over to you lot and see whet you lot think Oh its a 1992 v8 3.5 manual 5 speed

Sheddy:
carbuncle on the tyre?

Pete:
I'm with that one.

 Doesn't take a large bulge on an inner wall to produce those symptoms.

 Pete.

gtomo2:
Not checked the tyres as i was to busy praying it was not the wheel bearings. will have a look at them in the light tomorrow

crazymac:
Have you checked that your wheel nuts are tight? I had this with alloys, for some reason they kept loosening off. I eventually cranked them with the air gun and that sorted them. previously I would torque them up.
