hi i hav asked another Q on this forum but its not to do with that.even tho i am having problems with the back axles aswell :doh:. but anyway every time i seem to b going round a left corner i am get a screeching noise coming from the offside rear wheel . i hav jacked it up and give it a good jiggle but seems ok but was going to renew anyway til i found out i need to replace the whole hub at £180 for the part. now i need to b sure it is this before i pay out for it or could it b the brake discs could b warped cos i hav replaced the front one cos of warping or wouldnt it do it on corners any ideas welcome :angry:

sorry forgot to add its a td5 on a 2001 thanks

Scouse,
Bad news I'm afraid. Land Rover redesigned the hubs in a psectacular way on the change to Td5.. as a result... the whole hub has to go...!
Sorry mate

hi all thanks for the replys and offers. but i hav took it to a 4x4 mechanic today he has looked it over for me and he said the wheels bearing and discs ar good. he had it on the ramps and said nothin wrong with it so that it must just b some play in the pads but nothin major thankfully. but to save me starting a new thread he drove it for me and thinks the drowning noise that am gettin wen i drive is the diff starting to go but said best wait til it gets worse to b sure but i am ment to b driving to anglesey tomor. i am a bit nervous if it will just go bang or break my gearbox or something it does still drive smoth tho but could it just go back at any time any info pls plus anywhere that does recondtioned diffs am a bit nervous of buying off ebay incase am buying another problem :doh:

Not sure what diff is in the TD5 but if you have a screeeching on corners I'd suggest you take the pads out, scrape them with an old chisel and put them back, it's probably a loose bit of metal flake in the pad just catching as the hub floats slightly on the bearing as it's meant to. Either that or a smear of copper slip on the back of each pad and check the callper pistons are all ok.
