    What is this sound??

    I noticed this yesterday. It only happen when the car is warm (at operating temp) and rolling probably at less than 5km/h and No brake & No gas applied.

    Anyone know what is this sound attached? Thanks

    Don,t hold me to it but it sounds like it might be the harmonic balancer starting to fail
    Start by removing the serpentine belt to see if the noise remains then go from there

    TD5?

    Maybe fan bearing. I can't remember what mine sounded like. I think it was about that often.

    Happy Days.

    Prop shaft is possible but also likely to be brake calliper sticking a little.

    I should have picked up the increase in revs in the engine in the sound track.

    I'm with the tail shaft idea then. It doesn't seem fast enough for wheel rotation at 5km/h.

    Happy Days.

    I just took out the prop shaft see whether the sounds coming back.

    I did change the UJ with one with nipples about 4-5 years ago. Time to replace the UJ again?
