Evening all, just noticed a little rumbling/knocking from front left of my 182. Pretty sure I didn't hear it when I was driving it earlier today, but I had the radio on fairly loud, so may have been there.
Googling and searching has proven unsuccessful so far, and I'm not texting my mechanic mate as he's an early-bedder!
Basically the car feels fine, drives and brakes in a straight line etc, but there's a definite new 'noise'.
- I think it's front left, could be closer to the centre though as I'm obviously sitting in the driving seat.
- it's not noticeable until about 25mph
- from around 25-40, there's a dull "thudding" noise which is just audible over the usual tyre/wind noise
- it seems to increase in frequency from around 3 to 5 thuds per second, then it's drowned out by the tyre/wind noise, or it disappears.
- I can feel it, ever so slightly, through the steering wheel
Any thoughts on the cause?
Cheers,
Simoid
