Rumbling sound
« on: August 14, 2005, 22:21:05 »
Hi,
 
I get a rumbling sound from under my car between 65 and 75/80 then it disappears, thought it might be due to tyre presures but not sure.

Any sugggestions :?
Cheers.

Get under there and check the props... could be worn UJs
Also worth jacking up the wheels and checking the bearings
Could be a wheel slightly off-balance too

It's not due to the additional wind resistance on the front end is it?
Have you tried it without the valence?  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Seriously tho I think Tim has summed it up, my money's on a prop UJ  :wink:
