GCH1 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Has any one else had tyre noise that resembles a bearing failing I.e. rumbling at low speed 20 mph and then as speed increases sounds like a distant helicopter. a kind of woob woob woob sound . The car is under warranty and the garage says its tyre noise due to uneven wear however the tyres are newish goodyears and having worked as a tyre fitter and a mechanic it definitely sounds like front wheel bearings . Worrying as car has only done 27000 miles . ps 17 inch alloys ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IINexusII Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 try swapping the tyre with the one from the other side or the back, if the noise is still there then it is most likely the wheel bearing, sounds just like a drone/helicopter sound 27k is pretty premature for it to make noises Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
