@Nodge68 Hi (again) Many thanks for your very kind help again. Today I just tried fitting my spare tyre on the NS front just to prove a crazy theory if I'm fitting worped tyres from the rear to front in some bizare way, but still the same. So at least I've eliminated a tyre issue as I know a...

@Nodge68 Hi Nodge68 Can you explain the test again, bit confused... does the real wheels need to be off the ground while fronts on the ground? and do I need to put the car into gear or not? I've already had all four wheels off the ground and put into a high gear and the front and back wheels...

@myfirstl322 got it thanks

@myfirstl322 Thank you... New to this website so learning things slowly :)

Hi Nodge68 Can you explain the test again, bit confused... does the real wheels need to be off the ground while fronts on the ground? and do I need to put the car into gear? Thanks Roy

Not sure what you mean by geometry, assuming you mean tracking... had the tyres fully tracked once I changed the front suspension parts, yes Thanks Roy

Hi Nodge68... That's got me thinking now as I couldn't see any physical problems with the shocks, I'm now looking at the possibility of the PTU failure in some way, especially if you say it does cause front tyre scrubbing. This is all new to me regards the PTU, I only know I'll be looking at...

Don't tell me that, hope its not that, but surely this would be making a noise when turning left or going straight if splines are worn?

Had the rear diff changed not long ago and Haldex serviced.. Not much I've not changed on this lol

Hi Nodge68 No its not the splash guards rubbing, I wish it was that simple. * correction, the brake pads had some copper grease and the slide pins I've used high silicon vacume grease* Before it was the original grease supplied with the pins. Its not a light metalic noise I'm getting, more of a...

Thanks all for the suggestions... Turning the radio up works, sadly not a cure! The break pads is not the issue, I've stripped down (twice) cleaned, copper greased slide pins / pad guids and there's no sign of binding to cause this rubbing noise when turning right on road bend (not hard right)...

Hi Paydg, I've run out of ideas on this as no physical signs of rubbing, just the cyclic rubbing noise when turning right. Brakes re-checked and nothing binding, re greased calper slides, checked piston, nothing seized. Had the Mrs drive the car (bit scary) as I sat in the back, and still sounds...

Hi, Yes I bought the wheel bearing which came complete on the knuckle. Checking my old bearing, didn't find anything wrong.

What CV joint? I've replaced the NS drive shaft assembly? Are you refering to the prop shaft ?

Thank you for the reply, The shock absorber is the original on the car (has done around 113K) Even with tyres changed, new wheel bearing, wishbone and drive shaft replaced, it still makes this noise "rubbing" when turning right. I guess the next option is to change both shocks and see if it...

In need of some expert help please... I have a Freelander 2 (2010) that has a rubbing/ grinding noise comming from the front nearside (at least I think it is) only when turning right. The tyre has signs of slight cupping and wearing uneaven which I thought was the issue. I've since replaced...

SORTED..... For those who struggle with the issue I had, fit wishbone on fully first (without the ball joint in the hub) then use a 4' monster crowbar to prize the wishbone down and slide the ball joint onto the knuckle. It takes TWO people to do this and a lot of grunt!!!! How ever much I...

No it's a Landrover Freelander 2 2010

Did you find the answer as I'm having the same issue on my Freelander 2 :( [Car fully jacked up on two axle stands, wheels removed] If I bolt the subframe on first, the ball joint is then too high and I cant push the new wishbone down far enough to get the ball joint into the hub hole (anti-roll...
