Hi All,
Not sure how to describe this but I will give it a go. I have recently noticed an odd sound from the old girl. It is sort of like a hum crossed with what sounds like a tire whine when decelerating from about 35mph. It seems to emanate from the right rear of the car. It is not very loud but is noticeable from inside when the radio is turned down, it doesn't seem to appear at higher speeds although I cant really be sure as the wind noise sort of overtakes any sounds. I have tried feathering the throttle to see if it is a U-joint, there is no vibration and no clunk when pulling away or going from drive to reverse. The wheel bearings are cold after driving so not really sure what it could be really, any ideas?
Cheers
