Thread: WTF is this noise !

Best problem thread i have ever seen man!
How damn cool you put a camera down there. Impressed.
I never knew discos looked that clean? Mine always has mud on it?

Beyond my pointless comment i cant acutally help you sorry lol.

I doubt it is your diff based on a dent in the housing. Seems suspension ish to me.

Great vid....very clean, unlike my oily/muddy/dirty beast. Sounds like its coming from inside the axle housing to me....but I know nit as Ive never had the axle opened. Good luck.

Try checking your wheel bearings, I had a similar noise that I couldn't find. The wheel bearings finally collapsed and then I found it.

Cheers chaps, thought u'd like it. So far I've done wheel bearings, CVS, axle, changed diff, and prop shafts. PS I know it's poor form having such a clean disco, will try to rectify this asap.

Watched the video a few times now.
Could it be an exhaust hitting?
Is it more noticeable at certain times. Like under load or whatever?

No only once I hit about 50 plus up to 80, but could be exhaust, but it definitely sounds like the right hand side, might do another vid on the other side

Sounds like a dry front uni-joint, also check for any rocks between disc and cover plate and check that it is tight, can make weird sounds if it is loose, regards Frank.
