Title: Van issue already great.
Post by: Del Boy on 25 April 2010, 21:55:45
Got a very noisy sound coming from the rear, sounds like the wheel bearing did on my trafic, but jacked it up span all the wheels no noise from them at all. Not gearbox as it does it when no in gear. Anyone have any idea's?

TIA!

It's probably the bearing... Just sounds when loaded :-/

Or just vibration into the loadspace :-/

check the tread on the rear tyres for any lumpiness on the inner part of the tyre,I have had a lot of cars with suspected w/bearing noise only for it to be the tyres causing the problem,it only seems to happen on front wheel drives which have little weight on the rear end

Rear wheels & tyres swapped to the front, much quieter now, result  :y
