Strange noise coming from the front wheel!! :S

[GarethM]

as above on the passenger side,

sounds like a plane flying overhead!! gets worse the faster i go in the car, but stops when i turn left!?

any ideas?

ive recently had to refit the cv boot as it had popped off, but not sure its related.

any advice would be appreciated

Driveshaft gaiter Inner one

easy to fix?

will i need to replace whole drive shaft or just replace the part?

approx cost?

 

[GarethM]

anyone?

checked the inner gaiter today, seems to be secure and there's no grease around it.

would it be something from the inner gaiter that i couldnt see?

im thinking it could be bearing?

i thinking if you have refitted the cv boot gaiter that all the grease has come out, that happened to mine, so i packed it back full of grease but the joint still went. dont drive it far like it mate but il lay a bet thats what it is, tuerning left relieves a bit of pressure off the joint thats why the noise goes away

so you think it'll be new drive shaft time or just replace the boots?

anyone?

its slowly getting worse
