Vibration noises

wosname · Oct 21, 2005

Some vibrating noises have started on my w reg 2.0xedi. From the front passenger side is a deep sounding vibration, usually in lower gears, but as i accellerate i can hear a more tinny vibration for a few seconds from the front driver side. when i cruise at steady speed i cannot hear them.Also the rear speaker cover has started to vibrate(nearly all the time) and i cannot seem to stop it,its starting to drive me mad! anybody got any suggestions please?

Thanks in advance.

hi wosename, have u checked the body panels and if the body is very intact both front and rear, try checking the front propeller shaft, the universal joints, and also check the transfer box if u say the vibration is on low gears.

had a similar problem but only in the higher gears. i had the propshaft support bearing changed and that stopped it. have since found out there are always some of these for sale on ebay at much lower price than landrover.

Hi wosname

What mileage do you have on the clock? If you are close to 100,000km or even above, most probably the vibrations are caused by worn out rubber blocks, seperating either the engine and/or the drive shaft/differential gear box from the chassis. So whenever your entire transmission unit is not under load, it sligthly touches the chassis or other fix parts and creates the vibrations.

hi all, sent it back to the garage i bought it from and it seems the vibrations were from lower engine cover thingy being loose. they have tightened the bolts/screws and its ok! lets hope this is the last of these problems!. thanks for your suggestions.
