td5 rumbling at 30 ???

(1/1)

smartuki:
my dt5 has just started to make a rubling noise at 30 mph
 any ideas ????
  its not a prop or a uj as they are all new
    but it sounds very odd    comes in at 30 if i then go to 40 45  its gone

 aaaahhh   help  if its not one thing its another  :cry:

extreme90:
check wheel bearings, if no joy check the diff oils

smartuki:
yeah thats what i thought but nope all seem fine

extreme90:
the back bearings can play tricks, pull the halfshaft out and then check them
the h/s supports the rear and take any play out when you wobbl the wheel so it makes you think they hunky dory when infact you got a collapsed inner  :oops:  :oops:
if that fails drop the oils out of the diffs and see what they like
and while you at it, check what the cv grease is like

extreme90:
another thing, just check the handbreak isnt binding
