Noise help

Post by dantheram »

Guys,

i have a droning noise at speed (circa >40mph) which is audible in the car as a drone / hum.

Could this be a wheel bearing?

Sounds like it could be, i replaced both rear bearings/hubs on mine.

Get it jacked up and give wheel a wobble to see if there is any play.

When mine went, it sounded like exhaust was loose/rattling
