keiser Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hi Guys.. I have a 2002 110 double cab. When i turn right, there is a strange 'honking'/rubbing noise coming from the rear underside. This only happens with a right turn. I'm completely stumped with this one... has anybody got any idea's? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromit Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Duck in your intercooler? Does it only happen a full lock? Does it happen at low or high speed or both? Full lock maybe tyre touching radius arm? Higher speeds maybe left wheel bearing making noise as it loads up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you say that about the duck... it actually sounds just like that! sounds like its coming more from the rear, only really notice it at slow speeds and tight corners like junctions or mini roundabouts. Then as i straighten up and accelerate it makes about 6 or 7 quacks!!! Like the wheel bearing idea.... well, i don't like it as such but its very likely. Thanks Gromit.

Normally bearings just rumble when they are going. With the diff lock disengaged and handbrake off, you can jack up each wheel in turn and (carefully) spin it up by letting the clutch in. Don't touch the brakes or you'll drive off what ever is keeping the wheel in the air. have a mate listen to the spinning wheel for bearing/duck noises.
