hi mate thanks for the reply. i was thinking that so i hav had the wheel up an off today but everything is good an solid no movement .1 mechanic has mentioned the diff bearing going from the prop in to the rear axle i hav been underneath it an it does look like oil has been leaking from the over time.but still no more sure if it is or isnt.but i got a long run to angeleys tomor so fingers crossed it holds up wot ever it is

The fact that tne noise alters when cornering points too wheel brg, there does nt have tobe any play , .....spin it and listen for a whistling type noise...
