Wierd vibrating noise



  SchwepTek™
For the last week my 182 has been making a strange low humming sound. Could be vibrating but i can't tell where its coming from. Could be the front wheels but possibly the rear!!! It only happens between 30 and 70mph. I have had 2 new front tyres in the last few weeks so not sure if it is anything to do with this.

Anyone got any ideas coz its really annoying!!!

P.S. i know clios make lots of aweful noises but this is extra annoying and has never happened before....

off the top of my head some areas to check :

wheels not balenced right or a weights come off ?

wheel bearing maybe ?

or perhaps the exhast or heatshield rattling

or shock horror perhaps when you had tyres replaced a wheel hasnt saeted right when they put it back on.......

but it could literaly, be anything ;)

If it has only just happened since having the front tyres replaced, i would start there first, check to see whether the 'light spot' dot is aligned with the valve stem and the tyres are the right way round, lots of tyre fitters do no bother lining up the dot, so i do not know how much difference it actually makes, i had my tyres swapped to new wheels and above 70 mph(on a private road) i get a slight vibration, i think the balancing needs checking again.
