What's this noise...?

[Rob Thomson]

Hello chaps,

Can anyone diagnose the noise my Cup's making...?



Driveshaft? Wheel bearing? Gearbox? Can't feel anything through the steering, and it actually sounds like it's coming from the back but I think that's an illusion.

Cheers, Rob.

Driveshaft

Thanks.

Driveshaft seems the obvious one, but I'm surprised I can't feel anything through the steering.

I'll jack it up and see if I can feel anything.

The arch liner is loose & catching the tyre?

No, I've checked the easy stuff...

Jacked it up tonight.... one of its ~1,000 mile old rear wheel bearings is buggered. Easy.

Did the spacer (No 8) get omitted or installed the wrong way round?

Nope, it definitely has the spacers and I hope I'm not stupid enough to put them on the wrong way round (I remember checking they were right).

Cheers.
