#1: Rear whirring noise Author: Rob2859, Location: HalifaxPosted: Mon Jan 09, 2012 11:16 am ---- I searched but couldn't find a definite answer to my problem.
I am getting a whirring noise; sounds like a jumbo jet flying overhead at high altitude. I only get it when going around left corners. I can hear it from about 40mph and noise increases with speed. Thinks its from the nearside but its hard to tell its not that loud. Trailing arms were replaced when I lowered it a few months ago.

#6: Re: Rear whirring noise Author: Rob2859, Location: HalifaxPosted: Thu Jan 12, 2012 1:12 pm ---- Jacked it up today and I can't hear anything even when spinning them quite fast. They feel smooth too. I was going to check the front but it was already dark and I need to drive it onto bricks to get the jack under. Still think it could be at the rear though.

I had a similar noise (wouldnt descrive it as a jet though) when putting 306 alloys on my saxo. Offset was smaller so inside of tyre was rubbing on the car
